Entry DescriptionThe general lighting of the store comes from a single light source, the sun, which creates the illusion of a natural environment within an enclosed shopping mall. This lighting becomes a gentle and pleasant light for the user. Because the circulation area has a softer light, it gave us the possibility of having more efficient lighting in the showcases. For the showcases, a special product was developed that contains a mixture of LED temperatures to enhance the different jewelry pieces. Additionally, the project was entirely designed with modularity in mind so that it could be replicated in different cities. The luminaires were conceived as a modular system to facilitate replacement and maintenance.
Sustainability ApproachThe store's general lighting comes from a single light source, the sun, which creates the illusion of a natural environment within a closed shopping mall. This lighting produces a delicate and pleasant glow for the user. Because the circulation area has a softer light, it gave us the advantage of making the showcase lighting more efficient. The client's brief was to develop a model store that could be replicated in other states. Our main challenge was to solve the showcases in a modular way, where the lighting could be easily replicated regardless of the store layout, streamlining construction time and luminaire production. We developed a special luminaire with reduced dimensions that contains different LED color temperatures and high flux to enhance the various types of jewelry. Additionally, the project was entirely designed with modularity in mind to facilitate application in differen
