Lighting Design 6,000 SF

The firm provided lighting design for the investor- owned utility company. The lobby area’s lighting was developed to aim for a clean look along with cylindrical pendants and a linear detail in the desk to highlight the client’s brand. The client wanted to highlight the importance of safely delivering natural gas to the people by displaying the ruptured pipe from the explosion September 9th, 2010 in San Bruno. The pipe display is the focal point of the safety academy. The objective of the design was to emphasize the pipe’s organic form and texture in different hues of colors.

Lighting effects aide on translating some conceptual terms into fire, ice and water elements. RGB colors are programmed to light up the pipe with national holiday colors.
