6. 三月 2021
Podcast Episode 1 with Christian Heuchel and Klaus-Peter Siemssen
Can lighting design support a city’s identity and be individually adaptable? Who are the decision makers? Can a product be multifunctional and sustainable as well as meet our aesthetic demands? Is it possible to combine efficiency and emotion?
In the first podcast episode Christian Heuchel speaks with Klaus-Peter Siemssen of luminaire manufacturer Selux about light in the urban space. Among other things, they share thoughts on the potential of Cologne’s Parkstadt Süd, nature being the perfect role model and the global transformation towards ecological urban planning.
Light for generations – For more than 70 years, Selux has been asking how public spaces can be optimally designed with light—for people and to be in harmony with nature. The internationally active manufacturer headquartered in Berlin develops lighting solutions that are geared towards a sustainable and liveable environment. Lighting design at Selux is modelled on nature: Its perfection, intelligence and beauty are the sources of inspiration for products that integrate harmoniously into urban spaces.
