CoeLux® recreates the sun and the sky to produce a real-like outside experience while being inside through a combination of three fundamental elements: a high-brightness, custom LED projector that reproduces the spectral characteristics of sunlight; sophisticated optic systems to direct the sun rays so that the observer perceives the sky and the sun at an infinite distance; and a nano-structured material that creates the Rayleigh scattering diffusion process that happens naturally within our earth’s atmosphere.
Our unique CoeLux® lighting systems reproduce the true effect of natural sunlight entering through the opening in the integrated ceiling, with a realistic sun perceived at infinite distance surrounded by a clear deep blue sky. Objects shine in the exceptional light casting sharp sky-blue shadows, “CoeLux® lighting systems – says Prof. Paolo Di Trapani, the company founder and CEO – reproduce a virtual experience of the sun and sky; especially in a below-ground environment, the effect is so powerful that it may radically change our perception of reality. It allows us to rediscover natural light in the real world in a totally new and surprising way”.
CoeLux® technology allows for a new concept of architecture. It returns to architecture the possibility for the human eye to be a window to the sky and the possibility to again be connected to our familiar origins, a place where we actually belong: nature and the outdoors. CoeLux® has developed and commercialized two different systems which can be integrated with architecture. Both systems are suitable for all architectural applications. The result is achieved thanks to the comprehensive work carried on by an interdisciplinary team of researchers in the field of optical physics, numerical modelling, chemistry, material science, architecture and design.
CoeLux® has sold in Germany, Austria, UK, France, Lithuania, USA, Russia, and Emirates, in addition to several prestigious projects in Italy. Multiple markets are ready for CoeLux: office buildings are an excellent example where many people are working long hours in standard artificial light. Studies demonstrate that people under CoeLux light are more productive and less stressed. Another important market is the healthcare sector, specifically hospitals and clinics where CoeLux light can assist in the wellbeing of patients. High-end residential markets are viable as CoeLux allows for unique lighting experiences and possibilities, differentiating one home from the next. The potential market list goes on: transportation, retail, hospitality, spas, and even unexpected elevator spaces: CoeLux technology can be used to transform the way all spaces are experienced.
