EXPO MILANO 2015 | BOOTH IRAN

LINEA LIGHT

Expo Milano 2015, feeding the planet – energy for life, is the World’s Fair with more than 140 participating Countries and international organizations gathered for the largest event ever organized concerning food and nutrition.

The Pavilions, arranged across an area of 1.1 million square meters, are the real protagonists of the Expo where Countries from all around the world , starting from their culture and traditions, are encouraged to pose questions and propose solutions for the big challenges linked to previsions about nutrition.

Through the installed lighting solutions, Linea Light Group is one of the companies contributing to the enhancement of the pavilions’ structures and exhibition spaces, highlighting details and geometries, putting into focus and sharpening the environment, colors and exposed subjects, as well as creating chromatic effects following architectural elements and emotional aims at sunset.

The most striking example of Linea Light Group’s contribution is the IRAN Pavilion lighting technical project: numerous downlights, projectors and i-LèD strips, Khono from the brand Tràddel and Circle Wave by Ma&De value and emphasize the architecture and shapes of the pavilion with light games and harmonious colors.

A floor made of LEDs that looks like a river appearing and disappearing from the ground guides visitors. At night, when the sun goes down, the pavilion is even more enchanting, thanks to the magical atmosphere created by the lights colouring the walls and reflecting on the mirrors hanging from the ceiling.

The lighting technology project by architect Asghar Firouzabadi has been achieved using different products, each product having a specific function:

• Portik – outdoor downlights, playing a leading role in the pavilion. They are installed along the whole arch of the exhibition area ceiling and, together with an interplay of mirrors, create several triangular prisms and reflect the wealth of colours of the plants and the other elements on the ground. The huge screen plays its role by enlivening the only solid wall.

• Pixar – garden spotlights are employed in this pavilion in an atypical way. Installed parallel to the columns supporting the "open" side of the structure, the spotlights provide illumination for their full length, thus highlighting their architectural features, especially at night.

• Dorian - Cob65 - Dave Pro – downlights installed in the suspended panels making up the grid over the restaurant and shop areas.

• Strip led RGB – strips installed along the whole perimeter of the pavilion open structure. At night, the light colour changes and highlights the Iranian flag and the pavilion silhouette.

• Khono – lights installed in the lush typical garden, lead to the entrance and illuminate the surrounding plants.

• Circle Wave – suspension lights installed in the cinema room.
