Design and models The Wave lighting series is designed by the Danish architectural company CUBO Arkitekter A/S. The series is characterised by its wavy glass that offers exciting design and optimum light distribution without blinding. The lighting is integrated in the ceiling solution, because the fitting armatures are flush with the ceiling, providing an aesthetic ceiling impression without installed armatures.

Lighting and indoor climate The indoor climate is a combination of air, smell, sound, light, humidity, static electricity, design and colour.

Good workplace lighting not only promotes more light than light ones. the well-being of the employees, it also increases The colour of the ceiling also influences the lighting productivity. Lack of light can lead to tensions, head requirements and the volume of light required by the ache, tiredness and irritation to the eyes.

One of the major construction challenges today is to make good acoustics, architecture and aesthetics come together in synergy. Troldtekt acoustic panels with integrated lighting ensure good acoustics and good lighting with ceiling and lamps appearing as a single entity. In our inspirational section at www.troldtekt.com/inspiration, you can find a number of exciting case studies and pictures here are a few examples: LPSF s union house A rough exterior with a warm interior Welcome to a union house with two faces one outwardly masculine and one inwardly feminine. In unison, this double character reflects a union house in sync with the times. The north-west district of Copenhagen is home to the says Architect MAA Christian Cold of Entasis architec headquarters of the storage, mail and service workers tural firm and he continues: union LPSF. At first glance, this is a masculine grey Our starting point was that the union has two fac concrete monolith but the rough, cold facade hides a es. The outward face signals strength, steadfastness gem of warm secrets. The yard facade is covered with and insisting determination through the impressive horizontal larch wood slats, providing an air of trans concrete facade. The inward face signals closeness, parency and elegance while the atmosphere behind the solidarity and care, accentuated by the light filtering facade is bright and inviting. through the larch wood slats. Two faces Golden frame When I was contacted about this project, only a very Most ceilings and walls are clad with Troldtekt, short time had been allocated for the draft sketches, and Christian Cold continues: This building has no clinical walls or drab plaster ceilings. The oak wood floors and the large cementbonded wood wool faces create a warm, golden frame around the union. The lighting consists of more than 230 transversal armatures which are beautifully inte grated in the Troldtekt panels. The architectural firm CUBO designed the solution and the special wavy glass that shields the armatures to provide optimum light distribution without blinding. Tailor-made house The users of the building are extremely happy about the design. Helge Geest is CFO of LPSF and says: It was a very positive experience to move into a tailor-made house with room for our administrative functions, meeting activity and large events. The sound quality is second to none, which to a significant degree is due to ceilings and walls of certain rooms being clad with Troldtekt panels.

Owner and client: Stadsfastigheter Malmö Syd Architects: JJW ARCHITECTS, Copenhagen Sommerstad, Malmö, Sweden From hospital to exclusive rental homes The old 1970s hospital Sommerstad today consists of 144 bright, functional and simple youth flats with an air of exclusiveness and spatial excess. 144 exclusive student homes have been fitted into a 4-storey building that formerly housed a hospital. The homes are owned and operated by the housing society Stadsfastigheter Malmö Syd and the project was designed by the Danish architectural firm JJW ARCHITECTS. The 100-m long building has new life and now acts as the functional frame around the daily lives of the young students. No more hospital atmosphere the architecture seems timeless in its simplicity. Large house depth Owner and Architect SAR/MSA Andreas Blomberg was the managing architect for the student homes. As he says We found it an exciting challenge to transform the very formal building into a pulsating environment for young people. It was basically a really interesting building, but the challenge of the task was to use its large depth in a positive way. It was also important to fit in as many flats as possible without compromising the comfort of the individual students. Let in light The long middle corridor was necessary to achieve appropriate logistics in the planning solution. The architects consequently had to work deliberately to visually break the long and straight hallway layout. It has been varied through extensive use of coloured flooring areas of different lengths and patterns. The light armatures are longitudinal, and the light sources are close to the walls, so the reflection makes the hallway appear wider. The hallway is now inviting with daylight in both gables, says Andreas Blomberg. Solid ceilings The architects have used white-painted Troldtekt panels in most rooms. We wanted a solid, impact-resistant material with good acoustic properties for this type of youth environment, where the halls are used for soccer and weekend parties. I also wanted an aesthetically beautiful product with rustic characteristics. That s why we opted for Troldtekt. The lighting consists of integrated Troldtekt armatures throughout, creating an elegant spatial effect, adds Andreas Blomberg. TROLDTEKT LIGHTING > 7
