In one of the oldest and most important libraries in the world, ERCO
lighting solutions present valuable manuscripts in compliance with
heritage protection requirements.

The Abbey Library of St Gall preserves numerous key works of
European intellectual history. The heart of the collection is its
corpus of early medieval manuscripts dating from the 8th to the
11th centuries, most of which were created on site. Added to the
UNESCO World Heritage List in 1983, the Abbey Library is now
one of Switzerland’s leading museums and attracts almost
200,000 visitors each year. In the Baroque Hall, ERCO LED
spotlights mounted on custom-made track illuminate both the
valuable book collection and temporary exhibitions.

The Baroque Hall of the Abbey Library was built between 1758 and
1767. It is considered the finest non-ecclesiastical Baroque interior in
Switzerland and one of the most perfectly conceived library buildings in
the world. The hall takes the form of a five-bay wall-pillar hall. A gallery
runs around the room at mid-height. Along its length, bookcases and
window niches alternate in a wave-like rhythm. The pillars project into
the hall and are reinforced at the corners with decorative Corinthian
columns. Between them and the flat pilasters, the books are housed
in barred bookcases. The historic floor is especially worthy of
protection, which is why the hall may only be entered wearing felt
slippers.

The challenge: Making the entire room visible without direct
light falling on the centre of the hall

The Baroque Hall is crowned by a magnificent ceiling decorated with
elaborate stucco work and vaulted paintings, making it the brightest
surface in the room. The ceiling is both a visual focal point and a
reflector that brightens the centre of the space. Because particularly
light-sensitive exhibits are displayed in showcases in this central
area, it must not be directly illuminated for conservation reasons. "We
developed lighting that, so to speak, ‘clings’ to the walls and ceiling
without directly illuminating the centre of the room”, says lighting
designer Andreas Gut, who was responsible for the library’s new
lighting concept. "The heritage authorities also required uniform
lighting for the Baroque Hall using luminaires that were as unobtrusive
as possible.”

Andreas Gut achieves this by using numerous individual spotlights to
accentuate the historic furnishings and bookshelves, creating a
uniform overall impression. In close consultation with the heritage
authorities, he opted for the smallest available ERCO LED spotlight
family, which offers a range of light distributions within a consistent
design language. Black Eclipse 48V spotlights in size XS illuminate the
bookshelves and the valuable documents they contain throughout in
warm white 3000K light. The spotlights are mounted on a specially
manufactured curved Minirail 48V track along the underside of the
gallery. With the “ERCO individual” service, tailor-made solutions can
be developed to meet special project requirements.

ERCO Eclipse with interchangeable optics:

One spotlight family for maximum flexibility
"The spotlight system with interchangeable Spherolit lenses offers a
high degree of flexibility, especially for the changing temporary
exhibitions in the hall,” says the lighting designer, explaining the
decision to use ERCO products. “It was important that people
perceive the light, not the luminaires.” The slender black Minirail 48V
track disappears discreetly behind the surrounding wooden trim at
the lower edge of the gallery and adapts perfectly to the curves of
the Baroque architecture.

“Only in the very tight radii did we have to interrupt the track and
continue the power supply discreetly with cables”, says Andreas
Gut. On the gallery, Eclipse spotlights were recessed into the
wooden floor using Minirail point outlets and protected from foot
traffic with metal housings. The floor is not as old and thus not a
heritage element.
Because the overall lighting level in the room is relatively low, the small
spotlights were sufficient. “For conservation reasons, 50 lux was
specified as the maximum limit for manuscripts and sensitive exhibits”,
explains Silvio Frigg, Head of Conservation and Security at the Abbey
Library, who supervised the project on site. All of the lighting –
consisting of Eclipse spotlights on track around the gallery, a few
existing spotlights on the railing, and linear luminaires for the ceiling –
can be adapted to different usage scenarios via Casambi Bluetooth
control.

“We can choose between preconfigured settings for general museum
operation, for events such as concerts or readings, or even for guided
tours on specific themes”, says Silvio Frigg. And although there is now
more light in the room overall than before the new lighting was
installed, energy consumption has remained roughly the same –
underlining the energy efficiency of ERCO lighting solutions.

As part of the major refurbishment of 1 Basinghall Avenue, Equation Lighting has designed a lighting scheme that helps redefine how global bank Standard Chartered’s London headquarters is experienced, transforming key client and workplace areas into a series of connected, people-focused environments that support collaboration, wellbeing and flexibility.

The project forms part of a long-term strategy to support the organisation’s evolving ways of working. The refurbishment, therefore, focused on creating a wider variety of work settings and destination spaces that better support collaboration, interaction and wellbeing, benefitting clients and colleagues.

Delivered in phases while the building remained operational, dedicated client and employee destination floors, along with new hospitality and wellbeing spaces, were introduced.

Equation Lighting’s design scope included the Level 10 client floor meeting suite and hospitality areas, the Level 9 staff floor incorporating a café, wellbeing zone, multifunction rooms and roof terrace, the central atrium including café areas, and the arrival experience and client lounge within the Ground floor reception.

The lighting design was developed to support the different functional and emotional requirements of all user groups, from high-performance task lighting in workplace and meeting environments to softer, more atmospheric lighting in hospitality, wellbeing and client-facing spaces.

Dhara Mansata, Project Designer at Equation Lighting, said, “From the outset, the lighting strategy was driven by how people would use the space rather than applying a single workplace lighting approach across the building. Each area has its own character and purpose, from the client suite and arrival spaces to the staff café, wellbeing areas and the central atrium, and the lighting helps define these environments while maintaining a cohesive visual language throughout. The aim was to create a scheme that not only performs technically but also enhances the overall workplace experience, supporting collaboration, comfort and flexibility.”

The refurbishment creates a workplace that is aligned with contemporary patterns of use and expectations. Through a carefully considered lighting strategy, the scheme enhances the quality, flexibility and longevity of the workplace, supporting both client engagement and employee experience.

A system from Pharos Architectural Controls has played a major role in transforming Stockholm’s Avicii Arena into a smart and futuristic stadium.

The arena, located in the Swedish capital, is primarily used as a venue for ice hockey games, boasting a capacity of up to 14,000 visitors for these sporting events. The arena also hosts shows and concerts, making it an important cultural venue. When the Avicii Arena was named as the host for the 2025 International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) World Championship, a strategic decision was taken to renovate and modernise the arena, including its lighting and AV capabilities.

Full-service lighting design practice Light Bureau was appointed as lead for the comprehensive lighting design across the entire arena environment, with their role later expanding to include the development of the lighting control system’s architecture and technical documentation. At a very early stage of this process, it became clear that the requirements for the control system were unique, and Pharos was the manufacturer that could meet all these demands.

A comprehensive lighting control system is now in operation at the Avicii Arena, consisting of two Pharos Designer LPC controllers – each offering four universes of capacity – alongside eight Pharos RIO D4 devices to control DALI fixtures and ballasts, plus a number of Pharos touch panels, specifically a Designer TPS 8 and four Designer TPS 5s.

Together, these control solutions enable the venue to seamlessly deliver dynamic lighting effects across the arena space, precisely control the fixtures for the playing field, and manage all surrounding conventional lighting in amenity and hospitality areas such as restrooms and lounges.

The Designer LPC features individually controllable and independently running timelines and scenes and offers the freedom of real-time manual overrides with the versatility of powerful show control and integration features. With a compact form and minimal power requirements, the LPC can be installed virtually anywhere.

The Pharos RIO D4 is a remote input/output device that provides a convenient and scalable way to control DALI fixtures and ballasts from Pharos controllers and receive DALI commands.

Designer TPS panels allow operational staff to quickly and easily recall predefined scenes, as well as override colour and intensity on demand, making it possible to customise the scenes for different events.

The lighting control system’s capabilities are all administered through Pharos Designer software, creating a seamlessly integrated approach to the management of the stadium’s lighting. This includes simultaneous output to DALI fixtures as well as dynamic DMX control of RGBW and RGBLA+UV fixtures via Art-Net. The system also met the requirement to communicate with the existing SCADA system and to integrate with the existing KNX building management system.

The success of the project was in no small part due to the effective teamwork by all parties in the project. Working alongside Light Bureau was general contractor NCC and electrical contractor Nymans El. Stockholm Lighting was the official Swedish representative for Pharos, while Luminex supplied all the network components.

Ryan Salisbury, Regional Sales Manager for UK, Ireland, N. Europe & Benelux at Pharos Architectural Controls, said: “The Avicii Arena is a popular venue for sporting matches and other cultural events. While it was structurally sound, its technology was outdated and no longer fit for purpose. The upgrade using Pharos technologies has now put the stadium in full control of AV and lighting effects, delivering an incredible experience for visitors. It is rewarding to know we are a key part of that.”

Fredrik Winqvist, Technical System Specialist at Light Bureau, added: “This was a large-scale project that needed a highly specialised and experienced team to deliver the brief. From the outset, it was clear that Pharos had the best solutions to meet the project’s unique challenges.

“The Designer range from Pharos is incredibly impressive, delivering everything needed for dynamic and complex lighting projects. As well as being powerful, the solutions are easy for clients to grasp and use on a daily basis. Additionally, their seamless integration makes lighting control very straightforward for all those involved in delivering the project.”

The result of the renovation is that the arena has become more flexible with a closer audience experience. With new gondola lounges, a new media cube, a new sound system, and an entirely new structure with expanded possibilities for event rigging, audiences are experiencing a more intimate arena with improved acoustics and atmosphere.

Lighting is one of the fastest ways to reduce energy use and carbon emissions, but only data-driven, connected solutions deliver long-term results. As the UK government announces a £1bn investment in NHS decarbonisation, it is clear that energy-efficient, connected lighting is no longer a “nice-to-have” feature; it has become a strategic, measurable part of net zero delivery.
Tridonic has been at the forefront of professional lighting innovation for over 60 years, from early electronic control gear to LED drivers and modules, and more recently to connected systems built on open, standardised protocols such as DALI-2 and D4i. This interoperability allows lighting to integrate seamlessly with building management systems, unlocking new operational value for building owners and operators.
The true potential of modern lighting lies in data. Today’s luminaires generate real-time insights on energy consumption, operating hours, faults, and component health. This transforms lighting from a passive system into an intelligent, data-generating asset, enabling predictive maintenance, operational optimisation, and long-term lifecycle management. Tridonic’s Building Asset360 methodology takes this transformation further by aligning lighting system insights with the operational needs of each building. Building Asset360 ensures that investments deliver measurable outcomes over the lifecycle, from energy savings and reduced maintenance to carbon reduction, rather than just short-term efficiency gains.
Building Asset360 transforms lighting from a passive system into an intelligent, fully managed building asset. Each luminaire generates a digital profile, providing real-time insight into performance, usage, and condition. This information enables predictive maintenance, automates emergency lighting compliance, and feeds occupancy and usage data into energy optimisation strategies, helping to reduce consumption, lower operational costs, and support net zero targets.
Because lighting is present in every space, it is increasingly central to smart building strategies, serving as a continuous source of actionable data. Connected systems allow operators to monitor energy use, performance, and maintenance needs in real time, turning lighting into a tool for insight rather than simply illumination. Building Asset360 shows how this data can be leveraged to inform decisions, optimise efficiency, and support long-term sustainability, helping teams, companies and trusts ensure that decarbonisation investments are both effective and evidence-based.
By delivering continuous, lifecycle-wide value, Building Asset360 integrates lighting into the wider smart building ecosystem. Initiatives like the NHS decarbonisation framework show how connected lighting is central to public sector retrofits, where measurable energy savings, carbon reduction, and strategic investment are critical.
Richard Strode, Managing Director, Tridonic UK, said, “Lighting is providing new insight into how buildings operate. Building Asset360 captures data on performance, energy use, and maintenance, giving information needed to make informed, evidence-based decisions. In the context of the UK government’s £1bn NHS decarbonisation programme, connected, data-driven lighting will help hospitals and healthcare settings achieve measurable energy reductions and carbon savings, while ensuring investments are used efficiently and deliver long-term value.”

Industrial environments push equipment to its limits. High temperatures, airborne contaminants, vibration, and corrosive exposure are common realities inside many facilities. While these conditions are typically considered when specifying heavy machinery or process equipment, lighting is often overlooked.

Yet lighting systems operate continuously within these same demanding environments. When fixtures are not designed for these conditions, environmental stresses can significantly impact reliability, maintenance requirements, and overall lighting performance.

Understanding how common industrial conditions affect lighting systems is an important step when selecting fixtures built to perform over the long term.

Dust and Airborne Contaminants
Dust is present in nearly every industrial facility. The movement of materials, forklifts, and personnel continuously sends fine particles into the air where they eventually settle on surfaces throughout the plant.
When dust accumulates on lighting fixtures, it can trap heat within the fixture housing. Even relatively small increases in operating temperature can accelerate component degradation and reduce fixture life. Facilities handling materials such as grain, pigments, fibers, or carbon often experience particularly rapid buildup.
Proper fixture design can help mitigate these challenges by preventing dust accumulation from interfering with thermal performance.

Chemical Exposure and Industrial Vapors
Many manufacturing processes involve chemicals, solvents, or oils that release vapors or volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Over time, these airborne contaminants can interact with lighting equipment, gradually degrading optical materials, and electronic components.
The result may be reduced light output or color shifting that affects visibility in work areas. In certain environments, some vapors may also present ignition risks if lighting systems generate excessive heat or electrical sparks.
Lighting solutions designed for industrial environments often incorporate sealed construction and appropriate certifications where hazardous conditions may exist.

Heat, Moisture, and Corrosion
Industrial facilities frequently operate in elevated temperatures generated by motors, furnaces and other process equipment. High ambient heat places additional stress on LEDs and electronic components, potentially shortening fixture life if thermal management is inadequate.
Moisture and corrosive contaminants can present an additional challenge. Facilities located near coastal environments or those exposed to humidity, washdowns or salt spray may experience accelerated corrosion of fixture housings and mounting hardware. Over time, this corrosion can compromise both lighting performance and fixture integrity.
Lighting systems designed for these environments often incorporate protective finishes, corrosion-resistant materials and sealed enclosures to help maintain durability under these conditions.

Vibration and Mechanical Stress
Continuous vibration from heavy industrial equipment is another factor that can affect lighting reliability. Fixtures mounted near motors, conveyors or other machinery may experience constant mechanical stress over time.
Although LED lighting technology is generally more robust than traditional light sources, poorly designed fixtures can still suffer failures related to vibration. Drivers, electrical connections, and mechanical components may loosen or degrade if they are not engineered to withstand these conditions.
Fixtures tested for vibration resistance and designed with rugged mechanical construction are better suited for environments where equipment operates continuously.

Considering Environmental Conditions in Lighting Design
Lighting plays a critical role in maintaining safe and efficient operations across industrial facilities. However, environmental factors such as dust, chemical exposure, high temperatures, moisture and vibration can all influence how reliably lighting systems perform over time.
Evaluating these environmental conditions during the specification process helps facilities select lighting solutions designed to withstand the realities of industrial operation.
Collaboration between experienced lighting manufacturers and knowledgeable industrial distributors can also help facilities assess these environmental challenges and identify lighting solutions suited to their specific applications.
