Under the Floating Dome of the Louvre
The Louvre Abu Dhabi by Jean Nouvel is an architectural work of art in its own right. Artemide technology ensures the art displayed is shown in the best possible light.
Artemide ArchitecturalSilent Field
Silent Field works on three different local and space perception levels:
- luminous: light defines the physical space by modulating relations between light and shadow and characterizing them through the control of white light colour temperature (3000 K or 4000 K)
- perceptive: perception occurs through the pure colour of the elements that make up the product. The selected colours arouse a sensation of harmony, while working according to the principle of subtractive synthesis and the contrast theory.
- acoustic: ambient quality creates relational isles. The product does not invade space, but rather interprets it through silent distribution across it.
A sound-absorbing surface supports 12 adjustable LED units: this patented system ensures maximum light management flexibility via small spotlights (35 mm high, 25 cm diameter), which are connected to the surface by means of a spherical junction and allow 30° adjustment of the beam. With this solution, even and comfortable illuminance can be obtained across a 1 m2 surface, thus defining local perception supported by sound control. Sound control properties are ensured by the geometry and by the varying density of the material used for the panel.
