CF多倫多伊頓中心大橋的照明設計側重于兩個方面:在夜晚打造極具感染力的建筑,以及通過兩座截然不同的建筑的聯系,營造令人難忘的體驗之旅。
步行到橋上,行人被溫暖的光芒籠罩著。光照與走廊相融合,彎曲的表面、連接處簡潔明朗的線條,構成獨特的幾何建筑結構。隨著現代伊頓中心附近玻璃窗的增加,玻璃折射的光線使不透明(傳統)到透明(現代)和緩平衡地過渡。走廊上柔和的光線引導行人穿過大橋,但不會影響建筑的形態。
背光拱腹懸垂在人行道之上,是重要的街景視覺景觀。獨立、創新的支架系統,隱藏橋廊底部,便于維護和保養,均勻的光線讓行人體驗良好。
盡管該項目面臨諸多技術挑戰,美觀而簡約的照明為城市增添了特色,且具有引路功能,并滿足照明的功能等級。該項目由高水平的設計團隊協作負責,由其選擇表面材質,并確定新穎的細節位置,從而隱藏燈具。照明設計保留了建筑的簡潔線條,為來往行人打造一種真正充滿魅力的照明體驗。
The lighting design for the CF Toronto Eaton Centre Bridge focuses on the dual aspects of creating a powerful after dark identity, while also creating a memorable experience of the journey between the architecturally contrasting buildings it links.
Walking onto the bridge, pedestrians are enveloped in a warm glow. Lighting integrated into the deck enhances the torque and twist of the bridge’s surfaces and joints lines in a simple and apparently effortless reveal of the unique geometry. As the proportion of glazing increases near the modern Eaton Centre, glow from the soft frit to the glass helps to soften and balance the effect of this transition from opaque (heritage) to transparent (modern). A very soft line of light to the deck encourages movement through the space without competing with the architectural forms.
The exterior overhanging the sidewalk is a backlit soffit, an important visual aspect in the streetscape. This glows homogenously to create a positive experience for pedestrians below, thanks to an innovative independent mounting system that sits unobtrusively beneath the bridge decking, simplifying access for maintenance.
Although technically challenging, the light has a beautiful simplicity that contributes to the character of the city, clear way fi nding and functional light levels. The project was characterised by a high level of design team collaboration on the choice of surface textures, along with innovative siting details that help to conceal the sources of light. The result preserves the clean lines of the architecture and contributes a genuine sense of magic to the pedestrian experience.
