Wismar Town Hall Facade Lighting Design

This lighting installation was one part of the Wismar town square lighting exhibition. Our task was to light up Town hall building. The concept was the building could be a background of the lighting exhibition. At the left and right side of the facade, they were lit by white light with combination of red, green and blue light. When people walked pass the building, they had color shadows on the facade. For the interior, we put people-shaped carton paper in every window and programmed lighting inside to turn on and off randomly by time and position. So the overall lighting situation seemed to be plain but people could see the differences of lighting.

Neuruppin Town Square Lighting Design

Purpose of Neuruppin workshop was to develop lighting situation and to draw attention of the town officers into lighting development of the town. The workshop was separated into 3 groups. Each group took care each area. Gymnasium building, town square and Museum building. I was in town square group. The area included town square and the street which links the two buildings together. Concept of our group was 'the connection of streams of light' that was inspired by the association of many streams becoming a river.

Wismar Town Square Lighting Design: Light of Wishes

The first workshop of my master programme. The task was to do the light installation in the market square of Wismar. This was a group task. We named our installation "Light of Wishes" followed our concept. The concept was people in town could make a wish and participate in our installation which was separated in 3 parts; town hall, Wasserkunst (or water tank pavilion) and market square itself. The town hall was designed to be the background of the installation. Its facade was lit by blue light and let interior lighting turn on. Wasserkunst was also lit by blue light and the inside with ripple lighting effect to represent its history. Market square was the main area. Swedish fire was put in the center of the area and accent the pattern of floor by using candle lights. Near the center, they had a sand dune, where the wish lights were put on, and a group of balloons, which people could stick their wish papers on.
