LIGHTING ACADEMIC WORK-Neuruppin Lighting Masterplan

















Location : Neuruppin, Germany

Type of project : Lighting design(A group-working project)

Responsibility : Lighting design and concept, Presentation

Main idea&concept : Neuruppin is a town in Brandenburg, Germany. It is located on the shore of the Ruppiner lake. Neuruppin has the reputation of being the most Prussian of all Prussian towns, due to its former status as a Prussian garrison town. The novelist Theodor Fontane, the general Hermann Hoth, and the architect Karl Friedrich Schinkel were born in Neuruppin. Also, there are many historical places which are ignored by the people of Meuruppin.




In order to bring that importance back, "Pride of Neuruppin" is introduced to use as a concept of Neuruppin lighting masterplan. We try to make people and tourists perceive the abandoned pride. We illuminate the significant historical places, two important districts, old wall, promenade area, and the main axis of the city which nobody know. In addition, we create the different lighting situations for the gateway of the city by following the approach.



For the safety aspect, we use the fading of light in order to remind the drivers to reduce the speed when they are moving close to the city. The brightness of the lighting situation is gradually higher when the car moving to the center, so driver can know that slowing down is needed. Moreover, fading out of light relates to the need of light as well.
