Summary
Onyx stone was chosen for its unique translucency in a visionary hotel project, but uneven lighting posed a challenge. South Korea’s Lumispace, a global leader in advanced Light Guide Panel (LGP) technology, provided a solution. After rigorous testing, a bulk order was placed, leading to a transformative installation process. The project successfully integrated Lumispace’s innovative lighting, overcoming logistical hurdles and creating an immersive, artistic ambiance. The hotel's stunning illumination became its defining feature, solidifying Lumispace as the worldwide go-to brand for high-end lighting design.
The Art of Onyx Lighting, Illuminating the Hotel
A coastal city on a vast continent, where the tropical breeze carries a scent of adventure. In the heart of the town, a luxury skyscraper hotel project was nearing completion.
This hotel was not just a place to stay. From architecture to interior design, world-renowned designers collaborated to create a space that resembled a masterpiece. In particular, the hotel's key areas, such as the lobby and VIP suites, were set to feature lighting designs incorporating natural stone.
The project's lead designer, Andrea Valentino, valued the harmony between architectural aesthetics and lighting. He studied how natural light penetrates and reflects and imagined a lighting design using onyx stone. The semi-translucent texture and warm tones of Onyx would enhance the hotel's luxurious ambiance.
However, there was one major challenge. While Onyx was beautiful, the design's completeness would be compromised if the light was not distributed evenly. Valentino needed to find a technological solution to this problem.
"Is there a way to achieve the lighting effect we desire?"
The hotel team explored various lighting options. They tested standard LED modules, neon tubes, and different lighting techniques, but none could resolve the issue of uneven light distribution.
Then, an engineer proposed an idea.
"What if we use Light Guide Panels (LGP)?"
LGPs are a technology that diffuses light evenly. Combined with stone, they could create the illusion of natural light permeating through. However, finding a manufacturer capable of producing high-quality LGPs was the next challenge.
The project team began researching with the keyword "LGP manufacturing" and investigated suppliers worldwide. Finally, they discovered Lumispace, a company based in South Korea. But Lumispace was not just any LGP manufacturer.
For over 20 years, Lumispace has specialized in advanced optical technology, creating customized LGPs for luxury hotels and high-end interior projects worldwide. The brand was globally recognized for its expertise and reliability.
Valentino immediately contacted Lumispace, and a virtual meeting was arranged.
The company representative confidently explained, "Lumispace maintains uniform brightness while maximizing the stone's natural translucency. "
The hotel project team decided to proceed with sample testing.
When the Lumispace LGP sample arrived at the project site, it was placed behind the onyx stone. The entire team was in awe when the power was switched on.
"This is it... This is the light we've been looking for!"
The illumination spreads evenly, creating a natural flow. The unique veining of the onyx stone came alive, giving the impression of golden waves gently flowing.
Once the test was completed, the hotel finalized a bulk order contract with Lumispace. Custom LGPs were ordered for various spaces, including a 3m x 1.5m panel for the grand lobby's onyx wall and 2m x 0.8m for VIP suites and bar areas.
The payment process was completed after the contract was signed, and Lumispace immediately began production. The finished LGPs underwent precise packaging and were shipped via sea freight to the country where the hotel was located. This shipping process took approximately two months.
Additional customs clearance procedures and quality inspections were conducted upon arrival before the LGPs were delivered to the construction site. In total, it took three months for the products to reach the hotel site safely.
This project was not just about lighting design; it was the process of creating a work of art through light.
Lumispace's lighting engineers worked alongside the construction team to carefully install each panel.
The hotel's luxurious atmosphere was elevated as the soft glow spread behind the Onyx. Each time the lights were turned on, the natural patterns within the stone came to life, creating an effect as if it were breathing.
Finally, the hotel's operations team adjusted the brightness and color temperature for optimal ambiance. During the day, a warm tone blended with natural light, while in the evening, deep golden hues were emphasized to create a rich, luxurious glow.
When the hotel opened, word spread about its stunning lighting design. VIP guests entering the lobby couldn't help but marvel at the breathtaking effect.
"This hotel tells a story through light."
A renowned architecture magazine featured the hotel as "A space where the art of light comes alive." Soon, Lumispace's expertise gained attention from other high-end hotels and residential projects abroad.
Now, Lumispace was poised to become an even more prominent global brand. Through continued collaboration with hotel projects, the company was set to lead a new era of lighting innovation.
A project that transformed a space with the power of light.
This was not just lighting—it was an art form brought to life through illumination.
