The Chinese company's territorial distributors have used eight Century Spot 2500s and eight Century Colour 2500's to provide a permanent installation for Akula business centre in Donetsk, while a four further Century Spot 2500s are providing a dramatic temporary wash at the dwelling house constructed by the local construction company DISC (Donbass Investment and Construction Company. The Class A building occupies a prime location in the downtown area alongside other similar buildings.
The pieces were recommended by Cortmi's project department (led by Viktor Markov) to meet the inventive design of LD Alexander Kirichok.
Cortmi's marketing manager, Stanislav Serbin, says that the PR Lighting fixtures offered the logical solution based on their cost/performance ratio. "The lighting designer wanted to emphasise the high class of the buildings, make them more attractive for new business and create a positive image to attract potential customers. This challenge was comfortably met by the Century range."
In both locations the architectural lighting system is controlled by the DMX-Interface LightConverse Replay (designed and manufactured in Ukraine). "Since these are colour-changing installations, all the scenes are programmed and saved in the USB Interface, which works in stand-alone mode," says Stanislav Serbin. "The architectural lighting systems are switched off during the daytime and automatically come on after dark."
