Entry Description"Laizhou Distillery Experience Center project is located in Qionglai, Sichuan Province. Surrounded by dense forests and rivers over flowing streams. The lighting design incorporates 3000K natural light and shadows into the architectural and landscape, allowing visitors to experience fascinating environment filled with the captivating aroma of wine.
The project includes an exhibition and a hotel. The exhibition area emphasizes the uniqueness of architectural lighting and the guiding function of landscape lighting. The hotel area features elegant architectural lighting and warm, comfortable landscape lighting.
Lighting fixture for tree is concealed within the preserved native vegetation, enhancing the site's primordial atmosphere. The roof is like a rolling hill, and the soft upper light simulates the sunset to put a thin veil on the building.
Water system surrounding the experience center interconnects seamlessly, with light and shadow reflecting serenely on the water surface. Lighting serves as a catalyst for the connection between humans and nature, soothing and calming the heart. Under the night sky, it creates a tranquil and elegant pastoral scenery.
The sky bar seems to be suspended in the forest, with a warm glow emanating from the red staircase. The skywalk resembles a ""light ribbon"" flowing in the air under the setting sun, guiding tourists to explore the unknown sight
Sustainability ApproachThe experience center is situated in a dark countryside, and all the power of the lamps is controlled at the lowest. There are also several lighting scenes for different periods of time. At midnight, only basic road lighting is retained to protect the natural ecological environment at night.
