Auszeichnungen
International Design Award 2020: Honorable Mention

Inspiriert von den Produkten des Auftraggebers hat GRAFT den neuen Standort des deutschen Leuchtenherstellers TRILUX in Köln mit den Motiven Licht, Reflexion und Brechung gestaltet. Die durchgehende, gestaffelte Glasfassade spiegelt - im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes - die Präzision der Lampenherstellung wider.

TRILUX LIGHT CAMPUS Project type: Office Building     Location: Cologne, Germany     Client: Trilux GmbH & Co KG     Time: 2017-2019     Size: 2,794m2     Photos: Trilux  GRAFT designed the new campus of the German lighting company TRILUX in Cologne. The design of the rectangular building is strongly inspired by the client’s craft: light, refraction and reflections are reflected – in the truest sense of the word – throughout the building and its design embodies the precision of lamp manufacture. The continuous, staggered glass façade presents a changing pattern of reflections from different viewpoints and draws inspiration from the aesthetics of spotlight reflectors, which optimize the optical distribution of the light source. To achieve this, each façade module is rotated at the same angle about its central axis. The overall impression is of a monolithic building that produces different light and depth effects depending on the point of view.

Das rechteckige Gebäude zeigt aus verschiedenen Blickwinkeln ein wechselndes Muster von Reflexionen und ist inspiriert von der Ästhetik von Scheinwerferreflektoren, die die optische Verteilung der Lichtquelle optimieren. Um dies zu erreichen, wird jedes Fassadenmodul im gleichen Winkel um seine Mittelachse gedreht. So entsteht der Gesamteindruck eines monolithischen Gebäudes, das je nach Blickwinkel unterschiedliche Licht- und Tiefeneffekte erzeugt.

The main entrance of the TRILUX light campus makes an inviting gesture at the corner where it meets the street to the north, its glazing rising from one to two floors to wrap around the building corner. The new building frames the site on the western edge, defining a new space of interaction between the new and existing buildings. The landscape design by Lill + Sparla creates an outdoor plaza that is green all year round, with delicate grasses that contrast with the uniform overall impression of the building.

Der Haupteingang des TRILUX Licht Campus vermittelt eine einladende Geste: Die Verglasung geht umschließt die Gebäudeecke über zwei Stockwerke. Das neue Gebäude rahmt das Gelände an seinem westlichen Rand ein und definiert einen Raum für die Interaktion zwischen den neuen und den bestehenden Gebäuden. Mit ihrer Landschaftsgestaltung haben Lill + Sparla einen ganzjährig begrünten Platz geschaffen, der mit zarten Gräsern einen Kontrast zum einheitlichen Gesamteindruck des Gebäudes bildet.

The theme of the plaza continues in the building’s interior. The spacious, two-story foyer and reception area extends the public areas into the building and, together with the gallery on the first floor, provides generous space for exhibitions or communal activities. Likewise, the open stair in the foyer can also serve as a further meeting place. On the ceiling is a sculptural light surface designed by GRAFT and Trilux especially for the foyer that is at once architecture and light. The sculptural luminaire folds out of the ceiling, curving gently over the space of the auditorium.

Das Thema des Platzes setzt sich auch im Inneren des Gebäudes fort. Das großzügige, zweigeschossige Foyer und der Empfangsbereich erweitern die öffentlichen Bereiche in das Gebäude hinein und bieten zusammen mit der Galerie im ersten Obergeschoss großzügigen Raum für Ausstellungen und gemeinschaftliche Aktivitäten. Ebenso dient das offene Treppenhaus im Foyer als weiterer Treffpunkt. An der Decke befindet sich eine eigens von GRAFT und TRILUX entworfene skulpturale Lichtfläche, die zugleich architektonisches Detail und Lichtelement ist. Als skulpturale Leuchte entfaltet sie sich von der Decke und fällt sanft in den Raum über dem Auditorium.

The upper floors of the building house the company’s office spaces as well as exhibition areas for Trilux products and is therefore an essential part of the company’s own competence center, which already partially existed on the site. The flowing floor plan continues in the upper four floors of the offices and extends the entire depth of the building, interrupted only by three circulation and washroom/WC cores. These so-called “Smart Workingscapes” comprise both open communication zones and enclosed work zones equipped with hybrid furniture elements that can be variably combined in modules.

Die Obergeschosse des Gebäudes beherbergen die Büro- und Produktausstellungsflächen des Unternehmens und sind somit ein wesentlicher Bestandteil des Kompetenzzentrums des Unternehmens.

Der fließende Grundriss setzt sich in den oberen vier Bürogeschossen fort und erstreckt sich über die gesamte Gebäudetiefe, nur unterbrochen von drei Service- und Sanitärkernen. Diese so genannten Smart Working Spaces umfassen sowohl offene Kommunikationszonen als auch geschlossene Arbeitsbereiche, die mit hybriden Möbelelementen ausgestattet sind und modular kombiniert werden können.
