The new Zhangbei Mirage is situated in an open field, with a robust concrete structure enveloped by a metal steel framework. By skilfully integrating light and space, Puri Lighting Design accentuated the building’s transparency and lightness, transforming it into a vessel of light.
For the lighting design, the designers selected fixtures with different wattages and beam angles, including 36W with a 10° beam and 48W with a 30° beam. These fixtures were 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.
The designer utilised pure 4000K white light to convey the work’s purity and tranquillity. 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.
