LitePads turned out to be an interesting energy-savings solution. In addition, they allowed us to create light boxes that were only 10 cm thick, which gained us good deal of space compared to the traditional 30 cm fluorescent boxes we had been using. Francisco Bermejo - Architect

The Challenge

The original entrance canopy for the Bloodstone building, a Central Quay office building in Dublin’s Docklands, lacked a sense of presence at street level. Plus Architecture was commissioned to design a new entryway to enlighten, enliven and improve the building's identity.

Working closely with lighting designers from Arup-Ireland, Plus Architecture chose Rosco Custom LitePads to enhance the entryway. To bring their concept to life, 2800K Custom LitePad HO90 units were mounted in the ceiling of the entryway, while others were used to backlight the company’s name & logo.

Results

Mark Reilly, Senior Project Engineer for Arup Ireland said this about installing LitePad HO90 in the project: “The low-voltage LED light source provided even, indirect illumination, and each panel was flexible enough to be customised to the specific size requirements of each application. LitePad HO90 not only met the high light level requirements of the client, but it also worked within the budget and schedule constraints of the project.”
