SHORT DESCRIPTION

This building is situated in an open field, with a robust concrete structure enveloped by a metal steel framework. By skillfully integrating light and space, we have accentuated the building’s transparency and lightness, transforming it into a vessel of light. For the lighting design, we selected fixtures with different wattages and beam angles, including 36W with a 10° beam and 48W with a 30° beam. These fixtures were seamlessly integrated into the steel framework using an uplighting approach, with various projection directions explored. Compared to the softer interior illumination, the uplighting for the steel framework is slightly more pronounced, enhancing the sense of depth and creating a delicate balance between transparency and lightness. This interplay results in a richer and more dynamic visual hierarchy. We utilized pure 4000K white light to convey the work’s purity and tranquility. In the vast expanse of the open field, the building stands as a vessel of light, infusing the space with a serene and profound atmosphere.
