Selected references · four application worlds

Four projects. Four completely different engineering tasks.

Theatre, IMAX cinema, listed event venue and movable grandstand: these projects show why professional step lighting has to be engineered around the venue rather than selected as an isolated product.

Metronom Theater Oberhausen

424 mexpandable theatre system

For theatre operation, we supplied SL2 step profiles and DMX controls. The system was later extended with plug-in solutions for variable platforms and additional access steps.

A system has to convince at handover. In operation, it has to work.

Flush curved stage-edge lighting at ArtLab Frankfurt, Germany

More than a profile

The light line is only the part you can see.

What matters behind it is the complete system: installation detail, cable routes, power, controls, backup operation, accessibility and coordination between the involved project disciplines.

Refurbishment & retrofitReuse existing wiring and building fabric where technically sound and integrate the new lighting around the real constraints.

New build & custom fabricationCoordinate profiles, recessed luminaires, controls and interfaces from the beginning of the project.

Movable & plug-in systemsRobust solutions for movable grandstands, variable platforms and recurring assembly and dismantling.

Documented project locations · Germany

A broad reference footprint across Germany.

Our documented reference base is concentrated in Germany and covers very different building types, regions and installation conditions. For international projects, the same project-specific engineering and documentation can be prepared for integration by the appointed local team.

Project & installation locationsHover over a marker to display the city

Experience from different venues, regions and installation situations.

Theatre, cinema, auditorium, event venue, grandstand or platform: the distance is not the decisive factor. The profile, wiring, controls and installation concept need to match the actual project.
