The Soliscape system is a toolbox of flexible components and modules for architects and designers that will enable them to create workable and liveable solutions for their projects; a system that combines lighting with acoustics and connected sensoring, into an aesthetically appealing solution that can easily connect to any building management system. The system is also flexible and future-proof, as it allows for new materials and functions to be added in the future.
Ben van Berkel: “The way we work, live and relax is changing. This new hybrid world is causing architects and designers to rethink how we design our cities and buildings, so that we can create places that encourage health and wellbeing. Lighting is a very crucial element in helping us to create such places.”
Peter Ameloot: “Presenting a lighting system that is not just highly functional but also appealing to its environment, is a key aspect for us as well. Both the UNStudio and Delta Light teams collaborated on the design details, such as placing the module connection on the top of the profile to maintain a smooth appearance from below, the way the acoustic panels can move, or keeping it adaptive to position the different modules on either side of the profile.”
Soliscape has basic framing elements, but allows for a variety of complementary circular materials to expand its look and feel. More than 60% of the material in the acoustic panels comes from recycled PET bottles, however different materials can be used within the system to facilitate specific functionalities, from acoustic to decorative to atmospheric. Furthermore, controlled and smart lighting contributes to the overall energy efficiency of the building.
The Soliscape system comes with spot, direct and indirect linear lighting elements, featuring Delta Light's Melanopic Light Technology® (MLT), combining high-efficient reflectors with human-centric LED technology.
