Since January 1, 2022, the Audi House of Progress in Shanghai has been inviting customers and car enthusiasts to experience the premium brand with the four rings. A fascinating brand world reminiscent of a mix of art gallery and technology center covers 2,400 square meters on two floors. Visitors can explore exhibits and vehicles with all their senses and enjoy the Audi lifestyle in exclusive lounges or the coffee bar. There is even a parent-child area. As early as during the design stage of this world’s largest Audi store it was clear that the lighting concept must also meet the high-tech brand expectations. That is why OSRAM Digital Systems – known from previous projects as a reliable German lighting partner – was involved in the planning from the very beginning.
Complex concept
Especially with regard to lighting control the requirements were very high. Not only individual luminaires and Tunable White light sources needed to be controlled separately, but the lighting controls also had to be integrated into the general building management system. The light colors in the exhibition space needed to be matched to the exhibits, and adjustments to incoming daylight, for example in the café, had to ensure maximum well-being among visitors. At the same time, the focus was also on energy efficiency and cost savings.
High-tech solution
OSRAM Digital Systems provided precise technical details of its products from the outset, ensuring very effective lighting design. The light management system ModularSense specifically developed by OSRAM Digital Systems for the specific customer needs on site allowed third-party devices and DMX lighting systems to be integrated into the control system thanks to DALI functionality. Even integration into building automation could be easily implemented via an interface. To adapt the light to actual needs, the lighting system was also equipped with daylight and presence sensors as well as a light management system. The result is optimal lighting conditions at all times and considerable energy and cost savings.
