Dynamic Lighting Solutions Transform Mall Experience
The Oakwood Center in Gretna, Louisiana underwent a renovation project with a primary objective to integrate design elements that could adapt to varying times of the day. The mall’s atrium presented two significant challenges: the requirement for an illuminated ceiling fixture capable of transmitting color changing LED lights and seamlessly blending into the ceiling when inactive, and the construction of over 300 light boxes suspended from the roof deck to match the dynamic LED lighting in the atrium.
Designers chose LIGHTBLOCKS’ Classic Dry Ice for the lens covers of the atrium fixtures. This material seamlessly blends with the ceiling color when not illuminated, providing a subtle effect. When illuminated, the material evenly glows with multiple colors, adding vibrancy to the space.
Over 250 LIGHTBLOCKS’ Designer fixtures in custom colors and configurations were also selected for the project. Hung creatively in different patterns, they add movement, dimension and color to the mall’s common areas.
To match the LED lighting colors precisely, LIGHTBLOCKS implemented a custom color process for the suspended light boxes. Multiple prototypes were developed by adjusting the color and translucency until the light box colors perfectly matched the LEDs. Attention to detail during fabrication ensured a seamless integration of the components. All components were fully fabricated at LIGHTBLOCKS’ studio for easy on-site installation.
LIGHTBLOCKS’ solutions transformed the mall’s ambiance, creating a dynamic space that adjusts to different times of the day. The illuminated ceiling fixtures and suspended light boxes provide a visually captivating experience for shoppers, while enhancing the atmosphere of the atrium.
