The Martin Inground 200 fixtures are embedded in the ground along the inner path of the curtain. The curtain's sleek, sculptural fabric, which defies weather and corrosion, interacts with the sun and passing clouds in a play of light and shadow. At dusk, the light show begins as static colour scenes interact with the shifting shades of the evening sky.
"The main task was to illuminate the stainless steel curtain in the evening and to that end powerful and visually appealing inground luminaires were sought," commented lighting designer Stephan Löper. "The fixture had to have a colour and a dimmer feature and after a market analysis the Martin Professional Inground 200 was chosen as the best fixture. We were able to verify our choice by a 1:1 test."
