Award-winning lighting design consultancy Light Cibles continue to light up retail spaces, providing contemporary designs solutions to shopping malls
SINGAPORE, May 30, 2012 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- As Changi City Point roars to life, adding more colour to Changi South, lighting design consultancy Light Cibles, headquartered inSingapore, is proud to announce the completion of the lighting facilities and design of the mall.
Furthering its mission to provide versatile design in lighting design and architecture, Light Cibles was the appointed lighting partner for Changi City Point, which is a joint development by Ascendas Land (Singapore) and Frasers Centrepoint. The Changi City Point project is the third retail lighting project that Light Cibles has completed in the Singapore market, after Orchard Central and Maxime Galleria, Resorts World Sentosa, which were completed in 2009. Other prime local developments that Light Cibles has lit were the Esplanade Theatres by the Bay and the Fullerton Bay Hotel.
"We are proud to announce the completion of the Changi City Point lighting project as the launch of the mall itself was anticipated by many. This project is a significant testament to our commitment in lighting up retail spaces as we move towards illuminating more retail developments such as shopping malls and leisure hubs," says Emmanuel Clair, Group CEO of Light Cibles.
The lighting design employs sustainable, organic architecture principles, combining metal halide downlights with fluorescent lights and LED lighting to achieve the intended illuminance level and an average of 8 watts/m2.
"Developers are often keen on sustainable designs these days, and the lighting of the retails spaces need to be planned out carefully as it combines both electricity usage consideration as well as factors to attract visitors to the mall. This involves a well thought-out blueprint to the lighting of these retail spaces that will meet the expectations of developers, retailers and visitors in general," Clair continued.
Light Cibles is acclaimed for its expertise in architectural lighting design. Most recently, the firm lit a number of Singapore landmarks during the Formula One Grand Prix Race in Singapore. The company was engaged by the Singapore Tourism Board (STB) and the Singapore Grand Prix to illuminate 10 of Singapore's most iconic structures along the Night Race circuit, which include the Flower Dome at Gardens by the Bay, the Old Supreme Court, National Art Gallery, Victoria Concert Hall, the Esplanade, the Civilian War Memorial, the Merlion, Benjamin Sheares Bridge Turns 1 and 20, and the SGP Building.
