Case Study of a School Project – International Association of Lighting Designers | May 18, 2021

Case Study of a School Project – IALD by Julia HARTMANN, Dipl.-Ing.(FH) Interior Design, IALD, CLD CEO and Creative Director at lightsphere, Switzerland The Good Light Group, together with the Society for Light Treatment and Biological Rhythms (SLTBR), the Daylight Academy (DLA), the International Association of Lighting Designers (IALD), and Luger Research (LR), organized and presented the “Good Light – Good Life” lectures. The webinar explained how good light indoors contributes to health and well-being. This webinar took place as part of UNESCO’s International Day of Light 2021 event. The project consists of an existing school complex expanded with a new school building and a dual gymnasium. The school building defines itself as the „school living space“ - with classrooms, kindergarten and auditorium. All areas can be operated individually or jointly, connected by the central two-story school hall which can be used and furnished for educational purposes, as well as being the main circulation area. The main goal of the lighting design was creating an interplay of light and space where light fixtures are hardly visible or completely invisible. Furthermore, a detailed analysis of opening positions, selection of materials and their reflective performance was carried out, in cooperation with the architects, in order to achieve the optimal amount of daylight in all areas, equivalent to an average annual daylight quotient of 7.2% and 18.7% respectively for central hall and classrooms. The supplementary artificial lighting is integrated into the architectural elements of the space, highlighting the concept idea to see the light effect but not the luminaires. The energy consumption of the school building is 3W/m2 and with the additional daylight sensors in all rooms energy rates can be cut another 35%. Due to budget constrains we selected a luminaires family of ceiling panels with different dimensions that could fit the acoustic ceiling panels, to reduce on site cutting. With the different sizes and arrangements of panels it was possible to diversify the areas, with a playful arrangement in the kindergarten and a clear rhythm in the primary school space. The lighting design of the gym intends to achieve a functional and vertical lighting able to create depth of space and easy orientation. The vertical lighting designed in the corridors and the transparency of the perimetral lamellas of the training area create an exciting interplay of light, colors and reflections. The presentation will share some project insights from daylighting design to the design integration of artificial light into the space. Julia Hartmann, CLD, IALD is the Principal and Creative Director of lightsphere, an award winning and multi-disciplinary lighting design practice based in Zurich, Switzerland and Vaduz, Liechtenstein. After graduating with a Diploma in Interior Design with honours from University of Applied Sciences Coburg, Germany, Julia started her career in Lighting Design 2007 in Switzerland working on various notable national and international projects before founding her own practice lightsphere in 2014. Julia is volunteering in a series of committees for the International Association of Lighting Designers (IALD) to help shape the future of the lighting design profession and also serves as one of the Alpine Regional Coordinators for IALD and was selected ambassador of Switzerland from Women In Lighting (WIL).
