Zumtobel delivers a flexible and unique lighting system for Wenlock Works When a unique lighting scheme was required for Wenlock Works, a contemporary office development in Shoreditch, North London, architects Buckley Gray Yeoman approached Zumtobel Lighting for inspiration. Zumtobel’s ONDARIA luminaires mounted onto TECTON trunking were chosen as the ideal solution as they perfectly complement the office spaces. TECTON is the infrastructure solution for the lighting, lighting controls and emergency lighting throughout the building. The aim of the Wenlock Works project was to modernise and unite the two dated 1980’s office buildings currently on the site. Two new storeys were added at roof level and a rear extension which has increased the floor area of the building by almost 50 per cent, giving a total of 167,000 square feet over six storeys. This extended the office space to almost double the lettable floor area with styling to fit in with the new generation of innovators using the space. The building also boasts a new factory style window configuration and generous floor to ceiling height throughout, with superb natural daylight along with generous cutaways to provide daylight into the lower ground floors’. High Luminaire Efficacy ONDARIA is a decorative, diffuse LED circular pendant with a low indirect component that emphasises the floating appearance of the luminaire. The diffuse and uniform light output, with its discreet indirect component, generates an atmospheric room ambience. With a luminaire efficacy of 145 lm/W, colour rendering Ra > 80 and colour temperature 4000 K to ensure a pleasant ambience, ONDARIA is one of the most energy and cost effective LED luminaires of its type. ONDARIA allows fully flexible arrangement of the luminaires and perfectly blends into every room layout. The timeless design of the ONDARIA luminaire perfectly complements the Wenlock Works offices. Multifunctional System The ONDARIA luminaires are mounted on Zumtobel’s TECTON multifunctional continuous row trunking system, which has an 11-pole current-conducting section built in, making it equipped to meet tomorrow’s needs. All functions such as power supply, lighting control and connection to emergency lighting are seamlessly integrated into this multifunctional trunking. The luminaires can be positioned flexibly and the system can be adapted to suit structural alterations at any time. TECTON copes effortlessly with various lighting requirements, even when layout changes are required. The TECTON trunking remains unchanged and forms the functional backbone of the system. It is simply a matter of exchanging or adding luminaires and system components. The World's First Continuous Light Line SLOTLIGHT infinity is the world’s first consistent light line complying with the highest architectural and technical lighting requirements SLOTLIGHT infinity illuminates the offices with a mesh ceiling providing consistent light without any shadows or overlapping. SLOTLIGHT infinity is a lighting solution with high precision, even around corners, using prefabricated frames and spacers to ensure a uniform appearance, correct spacing and a perfect installation. The final result is a high-grade lighting solution meticulously integrated into the interior design. The lighting is controlled throughout the building with Zumtobel’s LITECOM, an open lighting management system that allows lighting switching and dimming, colour adjustment (RGB), colour temperature change (TW) and balance of luminaires alteration. The LITECOM APP opens up a new dimension of flexibility for lighting management systems, with functions that include daylight, shows, emergency lighting and many more. The use of LITECOM can result in cost reductions, reduced energy consumption, time saved during commissioning, the use of wizards instead of training courses, future-proofing, flexible configuration and function adjustment that can be extended to suit the constantly growing system. The well-being of future tenants was of upmost importance throughout the extensive refurbishment and Zumtobel have provided a flexible lighting system that is unique from other offices, whilst ensuring the perfect lit environment for the users. The building is expected to achieve a BREEAM Excellent rating. Client Testimonial Adam Wood, Associate, Buckley Gray Yeoman commented “At Wenlock Works we recognised early on that the existing building had a great 'bone structure', so we stripped out the existing finishes to reveal flat concrete soffits. We worked closely with Zumtobel to maximise the impact of these along the 90 metre length of the floorplate; selecting the large format circular ONDARIA suspended from the trunking system on bespoke metal rods and integrating the linear SLOTLIGHT Infinity into a central mesh 'spine'."

Just what the doctor ordered – a unique lighting solution for Chelsea and Westminster Hospital’s Neonatal and Intensive Care Units Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is one of the top ranked and performing hospital trusts in the UK, employing more than 6,000 staff over two main hospital sites. The new Critical Care Unit (ICU) is an improved space in the same location as the current unit but expanded by 45%. The facility includes private bed areas, in-built space for a patient’s partner or relative to rest, and technology to connect patients to loved ones. The Neonatal Care Unit (NICU) remains in its existing location, expanded and transformed internally to increase the number of cots, providing additional space and privacy around each cot, whilst creating enhanced facilities for parents and families. Modern Energy Efficient Lighting Solution Zumtobel with its sister brand Thorn Lighting have organised and supplied the concept, design and provision of the lighting and controls for the newly improved facilities. The brief was to provide a solution that caused no disruption to the usual day to day running of the hospital with a phased handover and sectional completion of these areas. The scheme also required a modern, energy efficient lighting solution and the ability for a dynamically controlled environment through the usage of a sophisticated lighting management system. tunableWhite Technology with Colour Change Zumtobel’s tunableWhite SLOTLIGHT infinity offered the perfect solution, particularly in providing the optimum conditions required for patient’s recovery. Zumtobel is the only lighting company that could offer a continuous light line in varying angles without breaking the line of light or producing shadow gaps, with the added benefit of the ability to change the colour temperature. The unique recessed installation within plasterboard combined with the continuous diffuser, means that the luminaire also has a high degree of ingress protection (IP54) to help with cleaning and maintenance. The provision of the SLOTLIGHT infinity system with tunableWhite technology in various lengths and custom angles, has been installed throughout the wards and around the bays. These areas were a complex challenge for the Zumtobel team and considerable time had to be given to planning and mapping the SLOTLIGHT infinity. SLOTLIGHT infinity tunableWhite is a modular, but fully integrated system, with consistent lighting quality in virtually end-to-end illumination. tunableWhite luminaires create different atmospheres and change the ambience of a space throughout the day, which can also bring health benefits by supporting circadian rhythm. Circadian light improves sleep quality and daytime wakefulness, whilst making nursing and care a more positive experience for both patients and staff. SLOTLIGHT infinity RGBW (incorporating red, green, blue, and white chips) illuminates the cot areas in the NICU and bay areas in ICU. Apart from providing perfect natural white light, RGBW offers a variety of new possibilities such as the generation of pastel colours and various additional mixed colours for different atmospheres. SLOTLIGHT infinity RGBW also illuminates the handwashing areas before entering a ward, turning blue to indicate an essential handwashing stop. SLOTLIGHT infinity offers a continuous line of light throughout the corridors in the NICU and ICU departments. Highly Efficient Illumination Zumtobel’s highly efficient PANOS infinity downlights illuminate the circulation and reception areas, and KAVA recessed wall lights provide indirect nightlight in the bays. Thorn’s Omega Pro illuminates the offices, utility areas, cleaner’s rooms and circulation areas and Katona, a cutting-edge surface-mounted luminaire is installed in the patient’s rest room and waiting areas. Cetus recessed LED downlights with low height illuminate the general circulation areas, whilst the IT hub and offices have been lit using Thorn’s College LED range of curved profile linear fluorescent luminaires. Other Thorn luminaires installed include Aquaforce Pro, a dust and moisture resistant LED luminaire, which has been installed in the store cupboards and Chalice LED downlights for the shower rooms. Sophisticated Lighting Controls Zumtobel’s sophisticated LITECOM lighting controls allow both patients and staff to control the colour temperature and light levels throughout these departments. The project was turned around and commissioned within the tight timescale and to the total satisfaction of the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.
