Precise and bright lighting for outdoors: Our strengths Outdoor lighting close to buildings offers a unique opportunity to create effects in the dark that would not be possible during the day and increase the appeal of buildings and squares at night. In addition to perfect and precise lighting technology, the particular installation and environmental conditions in the outdoor area must also be taken into account. This also includes perfect corrosion protection for lamps, with a high degree of protection (IP65 or higher) to ensure long-lasting and sustainable installations. High protection...

SHS Lighting: Night architecture Lighting design for facades Facade lighting close to the building Luminaire: Hoffmeister - hi.vertical, in.ground Luminaires from Hoffmeister can be installed in the ground close to the building thanks to precise lighting technology. This allows very appealing lighting, placing particular emphasis on the structure of the building materials. Facade lighting with floodlights The “49” series floodlights from SILL perfectly illuminate the Memorial Church in Berlin with soft light in a warm shade of white. As a result, the historical monument can be enjoyed in...

Lighting design for public spaces Public place design with floodlights In the Saclay Quartier Polytechnique Axe Central project, several SILL 14S floodlights were mounted one above the other on a mast. In addition to uniform lighting, some floodlights were equipped with Fresnel lenses in order to project the images of the LED lenses onto some areas. Near-ground lighting design The MP 260 and MP 860 illuminated bollards make near-ground lighting designs possible. Thus squares, walkways and green areas can be illuminated appropriately. The lighting technology is conceived in such a way that a...

SHS Lighting: Night architecture Turboschnecken House, Lüdenscheid, Germany. Luminaire: Hoffmeister - in.ground 50, lovo ©Hoffmeister Wall light / Window recess floodlight The accentuation of facades creates a new situation for the observer, which is often associated with the term night architecture. With precise lighting equipment from Hoffmeister and SILL, lighting is used to emphasise individual facade elements, structure the entire building or illuminate it gently in order to make it appear as a composition. The luminaires are integrated into the architecture and are an inconspicuous...

SHS Lighting: Night architecture Steibrua Bridge, Alvdal, Norway. Luminaire: SILL - 190. Light planner: Luminator AS ©Per Arne Helberget Bridges are important infrastructure connections and often style-defining landmarks that are turned into spectacular features in the evening. Architectural elements such as pylons and suspension cables should be particularly emphasised. Precise, narrow-beam floodlights are used, which direct the light along the pylons or suspension cables without any scattering. SILL floodlights meet all the criteria for high-quality lighting technology and offer the...

SHS Lighting: Night architecture Spinnaker Tower, Portsmouth, United Kingdom. Luminaire: SILL - 49. Light planner: Equation ©Hoffmeister Television and observation towers are landmarks and can be seen from afar in daylight. In the dark, powerful luminaires with optimal lighting technology can bring out the particular style-defining architectural elements. Due to the height, narrow-beamed floodlights that are both powerful and precise are used, directing the light selectively and without scatter over the appropriate components of the structure. SILL floodlights meet all the criteria for...
