3XN: gotham street lighting


gotham street lighting by 3XN

3XN have designed an innovative LED luminaire, with the help of a specially
developed prism, which uses solar energy for efficient street lighting. seven lamps
have just been erected at bella center in copenhagen in conjunction with the upcoming
UN climate conference.

the advanced technology resulted in the street lamps generating more energy than they
use. they were developed in close co-operation between 3XN and the lighting firm, scotia.
the goal was to create a sculptural and CO2 neutral street lighting solution.
