Agora Mall

Description

Location: Dubai, UAE
USE: Malls & Retail
Scope: Internal, Façade Lighting Design& Daylight Study

The internal lighting scheme for this upscale mall was designed to take advantage of natural light throughout the day. Huge skylights above the atriums and main corridors not only allowed for a reduction in lighting energy costs, but also allowed for a play with the shadows cast by the suspended decorative elements, creating a natural, dynamic, and ever-changing effect.

As a result, the lighting system responds to natural light conditions, dimming on and off in various areas of the mall to balance the brightness and create a uniform atmosphere throughout the building.

The façade lighting was designed to draw attention to the building’s precise geometry. To achieve a comfortable and appealing visual result, a combination of technical and decorative lighting elements, as well as direct and diffused light, was used.
