Author: SSLDesign News Staff

September 3, 2010... Zumtobel’s Supersystem LED lighting systemhas been incorporated into the contemporary interior design of the Museum für Kunst und Gewerbe in Hamburg. The Museum now welcomes its guests in an entrance hall flooded with light. As the museum’s technical director, Thomas Frey, points out, “From the very beginning we tended towards an LED solution, and now we have achieved a highly attractive result thanks to the professional technical support provided by Zumtobel.”

The Hamburg-based architectural studio of MRJ-Architekten favored the approach of“More light”, when it was commissioned with the redesign of the entrance areas, among other things. The studio collaborated with interior designer Renate Müller in the museum refurbishment, which was carried out in several construction phases. Former storage areas were turned into modern administrative offices, and a new annex was added in the inner courtyard to accommodate the museum management. A new main entrance, together with the adjacent foyer has been redesigned to be a brightly lit, visitor-friendly entrance area. The entrance area includes a book store and a display area for special exhibitions.
