Entry DescriptionThe Huazhu Global Headquarters Park is a six-part central surrounded multi towers, including the R&D headquarters, R&D design building, and discussion center. The free light is as butterflies, breathing on the building's surface and displaying slow and elegant wing movements. The lighting design concept revolves around the free infiltration of light as the core. Light is an artwork that integrates with architecture, giving space an artistic spirit.
All lighting arrangements are deliberately set on the inner surface of five towers towards the courtyard, rather than evenly set on all facades, On the night the Butterfly of Light starts its dance. The lighting design not only emphasizes the shape of light, but more importantly emphasizes on its integration with space. The interweaving of light and shade, as well as the changes in shadows, inject dynamism and artistry into the space. By connecting the lights, all the first floor spaces are suspended in the air, creating an amazing effect.
The upper lighting is hidden in the surface of the corner ofthe curtain wall, and through dynamic control, the linkage of the five buildings is achieved, gradually breathing in layers, reflecting the structural beauty while also facilitating maintenance and repair in the usage. At the same time, precise lighting control also avoids lighting fixtures be seen for people from indoors.
Sustainability ApproachLighting design can also create different emotions and atmospheres by adjusting color temperature and brightness. Warm and soft lighting tones can create a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere, which helps improve employees' emotions and work efficiency. Cold toned lighting can create a focused and calm atmosphere, which helps to unleash advanced thinking and creativity.
In addition, lighting design also needs to focus on sustainability and energy efficiency. By using energy-saving lighting technology and intelligent control systems, we can reduce energy consumption and reduce the impact on the environment. The design of lighting should focus on the rational utilization and distribution of light to achieve maximum lighting effect, while maintaining a focus on energy and environmental sustainability by lighting scenes control.
