Illumination: Small Olympic Hall / pfarré lighting design

Subscriber Access

© Andreas J. Focke / architekturfoto.org

With a capacity of 3600 places, and an alternative to its ‘grand sister’, the small olympic hall, is embedded carefully in the protected Olympic Park ensemble as it almost disappears. With pfarré lighting design working closely with the architects, the attic has been detailed to house a linear, dimmable lighting system. The huge notch, cut into the hill, which covers the building, was underlined with light on both sides. More images and their description after the break.

Thanks to the light surface materials, the lighting atmosphere is very pleasant, inviting, and glare-reduced. Like a “plaza”, the outdoor space can be used for all kind of events; the lighting intensity can be adjusted. Behind the glass facade, a view into the hall.
