TRIPOLIS Park Amsterdam

The redesign of TRIPOLIS Park in Amsterdam combines everything a lighting company could dream of in a project. With the aim of creating a cutting-edge office campus, the new development blends the listed buildings on the park-like grounds with a spectacular new building. The 11-storey structure shields the site from the adjacent motorway, creating a protected and enclosed atmosphere. Our mission was to develop a smart, energy-efficient and, above all, attractive lighting solution for all areas – indoors and outdoors - from a single source.

A Grand-Scale Project with 13,000 Light Points

The project comprised approximately 13,000 light points, most of which we could source from our standard portfolio, including 39er G3, Onplana, Lenty and Sonnos) However, many of the luminaires were customised for the project and adapted to suit particular applications.

A standout feature is our So-Tube light sculpture, which is a real show stopper in the foyer. The outdoor lighting is just as stylish: in the park and on the cascading roof terraces, our ConStela, 8841 bollard luminaires and Skeo Q, among others, create an atmospheric ambience. Skeo Q was also used in the covered transition areas, harmonising the listed buildings with the new construction.

HCL - Light Quality that Impresses

"At the start of the project, the specification focussed on high-quality, glare-free light – without mentioning Human Centric Lighting (HCL), which dynamically changes the light colour to mimic daylight and is perceived as particularly pleasant," recalls Willem Dammers, CEO of TRILUX Benelux, who led the project. However, a demonstration convinced FLOW Development to include Tunable White luminaires with HCL throughout the campus. Employees can even adjust the light intensity or colour to suit their preferences via an app if desired.
