Sky Office

The 89-meter high Sky Office introduces itself as a new landmark on the Kennedyallee in Düsseldorf and offers a splendid view. The design by Ingenhoven Architects distinguishes itself through its high degree of transparency, overall sculptural shape, and roof as a crowning finish.

      Project

      Between the Charité and the banks of the Spree, not far from the main train station, is the new location for the administrative seat of the Federal Ministry.
      The building has been given “gold” according to the standards for sustainable construction of federal buildings (Nachhaltiges Bauen für Bundesgebäude / BNB); certification according to “DGNB Gold” is being striven for.

    • Lenbachgarden

      Project

      On the former site of the Ludwig-Maximilian University between the Sophienstrasse and Karlstrasse, an architectural ensemble was constructed consisting of a luxury hotel, two office buildings, and high-class apartments. Kardorff Ingenieure designed the lighting for the entire grounds and all publicly accessible interior spaces, entrances, and underground parking areas.

    • Art Invest Headquarters

      Project

      With the modernization of the office building at Enggasse 3 in Cologne, Art Invest Real Estate has put to use new technical solutions for office space lighting in its own headquarters.
      The functional lighting is designed to align with the circadian rhythm. The lighting control system adjusts the color temperature and illumination intensity to match the progression of the day. The program can be overridden by the user to adjust the light in a given room. The glare-free and homogeneous direct light, the authentic appearance of the indirect components and the mixing of the two color temperatures were determined specifically for this project in cooperation with the manufacturer, thus jointly advancing the product's development

    • MY.B

      Project

      The structure of the "MY.B" facade, with the building's striking soffits and length, led to the idea of illuminating the facade using laser projection.
      The soffits stick out as the prominent structural feature of the building's form and serve as the perfect backdrop for the glancing views along the front. The dynamic of the commuters coming into the city in the morning and leaving in the evenings going northward can be experienced in the similar movement of the light.
      The newest generation of laser technology and automation are used on the "MY.B" building.
      Depending on the situation, the lighting can vary between restrained static motifs and very dynamic geometries with long-distance effects.
      The system consists of two laser projectors that are integrated into bespoke outdoor cases that have been mounted on the upper section of the columns.
      Power consumption is about 90 to 150 Watts max. per projector, which is, for this specific use, about 50% below the requirements for LEED Gold or Platinum Certification and can therefore be considered as the most energy-efficient facade lighting.

    • Bugatti Headquarter Molsheim

      Project

      The new Bugatti can only be ordered at the former Bugatti guesthouse.  The building was gutted and fitted with elliptical ceiling panels.  The light corresponds to the exclusive, imposing character and the contrast between a baroque exterior and a modern interior.
