      Project

      Bremen is home to Germany’s largest integrated shopping and entertainment center. The two construction complexes are lit up as a space ship and its docking station. In addition, the lighting design encompasses the shopping mall, food court with themed restaurants, a cinema complex, and a “space shot” (a catapult-like amusement ride).

      Project

      For its 100th anniversary, the famous department store was revamped. The goal was to create a pleasant, yet elegant shopping atmosphere. The high-class display areas are
      given identity through clear placement of the lights and targeted light accents for the aisle ways. Particular attention was paid to well-designed ceiling areas.

    • Alter Wall

      Project

      The architectural ensemble at Alter Wall 2-32 is composed of five buildings directly next to Hamburg's City Hall. The historically listed block was renovated to house shops, restaurants and high-end office space, including a large interior courtyard. Central importance has been given to the new Bucerius Passage, an arcade with bridge that now serves as a new and important passageway in Hamburg's city center.
      We designed special lighting fixtures for this arcade: a pendant luminaire of a hyperboloid construction that is distinguished by interlaced metal bars from which light rings hang. Hidden in these rings are fixed light points that illuminate the floors and ceilings of the passageway and colonnade. The dimensions of the lighting fixtures vary widely depending on their position in order to match the given spatial dimensions.
      These large-format light objects create a light motif visible from afar that harks back to the grand historical Alster arcades and gives this special place a festive atmosphere in the evenings.

    • Limbecker Square

      Project

      The ultimate shopping center: in the heart of downtown Essen, an urban shopping center was built with an area of approximately 70,000 sqm. Kardorff Ingenieure designed the illumination of the facade with reflective, hemispherical, sequin-like LED specifically designed for this purpose. By day when the sun is shining, the mirror surfaces glisten, and by night, colorful dynamic light scenes appear on the 15,000 sqm large facade.
