That’s right…perfect.
Located in Beijing, China, the Apartment of Perfect Brightness was a renovation that combined two units within a former office tower and transformed them into a contemporary living space. The feeling of an “art gallery” is conveyed throughout, and the owner’s preferences were paramount when planning the lighting design.
To eliminate the visual and psychological effects of heavy smog, all perimeter glazing areas were treated to simulate daylight. An LED intelligent white system hidden inside the perimeter cove was developed to simulate ambient lighting that could change from warm (2700K) to cool white (6500K), depending on the season, time of day, and outdoor lighting conditions. A semi-translucent curtain is used to redirect the lighting in the cove toward the interior area. Decorative LED pendants and downlights (3500K) provide task lighting.
The design of this space received international accolades, including the International Award of Merit from the IES Illumination Awards, and recognition from the American Institute of Architects.
