Engineering

For the DP World Pavilion at WEF 2026, we designed and implemented the exhibition lighting and programmed its control systems. Interactive areas formed part of the same concept, bringing spatial design, lighting and operation together from technical planning through to installation.

• Lighting design and installation
• Programmed controls
• Interactive exhibition areas

At 6.5 metres tall with more than 30 moving axes, S1000 was designed and built as a stage giant for SSIO. Bespoke show-control software coordinates the movement sequences and exchanges commands and feedback with the machine controller over a bidirectional TCP connection. Mechanics, drives and programming work as one system. The structure separates into assemblies for touring.

• 6.5-metre structure
• More than 30 moving axes
• Show and machine control

For Volkswagen at IAA 2025, we programmed the exhibition lighting and commissioned its controls. Twelve data bridges convert Art-Net to DALI, connecting more than 300 permanently installed luminaires to a grandMA3. This interface brings the existing lighting into the exhibition’s central lighting control system.

• 12 Art-Net–DALI data bridges
• More than 300 luminaires
• Central control via grandMA3

At the German Pavilion at Expo 2025, we installed and programmed the exhibition and exterior lighting. Our work covered both the indoor presentation spaces and the lighting of the building’s exterior: two distinct requirements within the pavilion’s lighting system.

• Exhibition lighting
• Exterior lighting
• Installation and programming

For the Uzbekistan Pavilion at Expo 2025, we installed and programmed the exhibition and exterior lighting. We also implemented an automated show sequence in the exhibition area, bringing the planned lighting cues together in a repeatable sequence.

• Interior and exterior lighting
• Automated show sequence
• Installation and programming

Our work at the Kuwait Pavilion at Expo 2025 focused on the main stage. We programmed the show lighting, implementing the lighting layer of the stage production — a defined contribution within a large exhibition project.

• Show lighting
• Lighting control programming
• Pavilion main stage

For the entrance area of the Philippines Pavilion at Expo 2025, we set up the lighting system. Our contribution focused on the technical lighting setup where the exterior space meets the exhibition.

• Lighting system
• Technical setup
• Pavilion entrance area

For the DP World Pavilion at WEF 2025, our scope extended from lighting design to installation and control programming. We delivered the lighting for the exhibition spaces, including interactive areas. Designing lighting and control together established how the individual areas would work as a whole.

• Technical lighting design
• Lighting installation
• Control programming

For Altena Castle’s lighting, we installed and programmed the control system. Twilight sensors and solar-position calculations provide the basis for automatic operation, while the interface allows manual control. An interactive 3D model and a tablet interface make the installation accessible, combining automated operation with visual control.

• Twilight and solar position
• Automatic and manual operation
• 3D model and tablet control

For Kultur Ruhr, we developed the mechanical design and production drawings for a 1,800-watt low-pressure sodium-vapour luminaire. Its monochromatic light changes colour perception, making different colours almost indistinguishable. Our task was to turn this distinctive lighting effect into a buildable luminaire design.

• 1,800 watts
• Monochromatic light
• Mechanical design and production drawings

For the production “From the House of the Dead”, we converted six historic mining hand lamps. CRMX receivers and tunable-white LEDs enable wireless integration with the lighting controls. A new battery system and control electronics fit inside the battery box. The lamps retain their distinctive form, with their internal technology adapted to the production.

• 6 converted hand lamps
• CRMX and tunable white
• Integrated battery system

For a fashion and beauty manufacturer, we designed two bespoke product displays. Programmed, randomised lighting effects and interactive functions add a technical dimension to the objects. Structure, lighting and interaction work together to present the products and communicate information about them.

• 2 bespoke objects
• Randomised lighting effects
• Interactive product information

A compact microphone light was created for Apsilon as a bespoke technical object. The images show the light source, electronics and wiring brought together in a slim cylindrical enclosure. From the exposed assembly to the illuminated object, the project shows how closely mechanical form and technical integration are connected.

• Compact luminaire enclosure
• Integrated light source
• Electronics and wiring

A 5-channel dimmer with DMX control was built for Kultur Ruhr. The power supply, decoder and connector wiring are integrated into a single enclosure. The photographs document the assembly in detail, from cable preparation to component layout and wiring.

• 5 dimmable channels
• DMX control
• Enclosed power supply and decoder
