Façades are the exterior layer of an edifice that creates the first impression and connect its external and internal environment. Therefore, the appropriate lighting of the façade can enhance its beauty and relevance. Façade lighting can strike up an engaging dialogue in the urban world. It lends the building a voice to communicate with its viewers and a personality that creates a visual experience. Some display images, while others highlight architectural accents, and some stand as a landmark with their abstract display in the city’s night skyline.
Preserving a building’s integrity and functionality is essential though. Hence, it is imperative that the façade lighting solution is designed to fit into the overall design aesthetic, rather than dictating the existing architectural form.
Developments in the lighting technology are empowering architects and designers to create dynamic designs integrating lighting and media displays on façades.
Media façade lighting is layers of individually controllable lights attached or woven into the building façade that turns into a gigantic screen displaying text, graphics and animations.
