Dublin Airport

Dublin, Ireland

In April 2007 the Dublin Airport Authority unveiled a new, state of the art check-in facility, called Area 14, at Dublin Airport. The space is expected to accommodate approximately two million Aer Lingus passengers per year, and counts intelligent LED lighting by Color Kinetics among its high-tech design touches.

Given its location in the airport’s basement, Area 14 required a lighting scheme that would be both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The design team conceptualized a series of illuminated disks that measure approximately 10 feet (3 meters) in diameter and hang from the ceiling. The interior rim of each disk is lit by iColor Cove® QL – a low-profile, low-maintenance fixture that’s well suited for the tight and difficult-to-access niches. Approximately 2,000 linear feet (610 meters) of iColor Cove QL was installed across the 58 disks. Each 12” (30 cm) length is individually controllable via DMX, allowing the disks to change color in unison or independently.   Learn more...
