LIGHTING DESIGN PROJECT MATRIX NEW WORLD HEADQUARTERS The lighting design for this project is an I NTEG R ATED

SYST EM that avoids exposed fixtures and merges with the architecture to create a visual effect where the surfaces seem to posess a natural illumination. An overall LO WER ED

C EI LI N G with different architectural features conceals the sources and unify each space in a integral design. Different layers of lighting are used to create a variety of lighting moods and atmospheres according to diverse nneds and requirements based ont he user and activites that take place on each space.

The OP EN OF F IC ES studio features a PAN EL L ED C EI LI N G array in which a selected number of these panels are tilted to create a pattern that works with the lighting both in an aesthetic and functional way.

RESTAURANT LIGHTING DESIGN The lighting design for this project sought to integrate and

STRUCTURALIZE the space, creating different AREAS that come together under the same visual language generating its own identity. Looking to minimalist and modernist movements as precedents, the sleek and GEOMETRIC PATTERNS

created in the space merge with the lighting to create and aesthetic relation with the user that will complement the dinning out experience. The main solution was formalized through an array of WOODEN BEAMS

that cross the space in one

direction creating a pattern that is visually continued through

GLOWING SLOTS located in the concrete lowered ceilings. The restaurant and lounge spans two levels: the ground floor and first floor.

L I G H T I N S TA L L AT I O N - MODEL FOR A SUSPENDED STORM Inspired in the musical piece “Weather Storm” by Craig Armstrong The idea of this light installation was to create an image of a storm suspended in time. A static representation of the movement and dynamism of the melody. The shape of the storm is represented with a STER EOTO M Y of 12 acrylic sheets that have an organic pattern etched in the form of a spiral. Each one of these is rotated and staggered to create the 3D volume and the effect of M OV EM ENT . The installation is illuminated with and LED strip concealed in an acrylic tube to light the edges of each sheet and reflect the light through the etchings.

A layer of ambient light is created with two different sets of indirect uplights. The first one, located in the top spunned metal structure, shoots the light to the ceiling and has a TLP of 6660 lm to achieve a quality ambient lighting, considering the 3’ distance from the ceiling.

The lighting control system allows the luminaire to create different scenes for the diverse activities that take place in that space throughout the day and the year.

TINA/ OLED LUMINAIRE T I NA Is a new, versatile O L ED luminaire that explores this new light source and creates an optimal illumination for different tasks and spaces. TINA uses six transparent 100 x 100 mm OLED panels. These are held around an axis that allows them to rotate according to the user’s needs, with a 180º aperture for homogeneous light emittance or in a 72º aperture to direct light to a specific spot. The wiring that connects the OLED panels with the driver allows the position VAR I ABI LI TY, and also act as a decorative feature. TINA has a second pivot next to its base to allow the luminaire to be used as a table task lamp or as a wall lamp.

I N M O L A C I Ă“ N I N M O LAC I Ă“ N is a play for school theater that addresses the issue of youth SU I CI DE in an innovative way.

The proposal changes the traditional scenographic spatial arrangement in which the actor relates to the viewer, which contributes to the momentum generated in the work. The space consists of a HEXAG O NAL STR U CTU R E in which each side shows a different scene within the story. The audience is located at the center of the structure, seated on stools that are distributed on a flat printed floor with the image of a C I R C U I T that connects them between each other referring to complex cyber world. The six areas that make up the set are interspersed with 40 LI G H T BOXES of different sizes that project images related to the work and particularly to each scene. The space is complemented with 4 interactive V I DEO SC R EEN S symmetrically distributed in the space, that work with the scenery and plot of the story in the creation of an unconventional space, which gives the audience a closer look at this very difficult and current reality.

This project was selected to be part of the mexican pavillion in the Prague Quadrennial of Performance, Design and Space 2011

PROJECT: Scenography. 2012 ROLE: Stage design and props AGENCY: Cuarto-b CLIENT: CUT/ UNAM

M A R AC A NA Z O M AR AC ANAZO is a play written and performed to commemorate the 50th anniversay of CUT (Theatre University Center). Defined as a musical samba-tragedy in three acts, Maracanazo combines elements of greek mythology and the famous tragedy of Maracana, Brasil in the 1950 World Cup. The concept behind the scenic design comes from the idea of creating a DY NAM I C P ER FO R M ANCE SPACE that becomes a laboratory of experiences. It rejects the idea of staging as a set or a scene that tries to imitate pictorial reality, and instead preserves the “architectural scene�, in which a SY M BO LI C EN T I TY relates to all elements of the play and forms a whole. The sequence of events takes place in different times and spaces, mixing reality with fantasy, the sacred and the mundane, it tells different stories that converge on one historical fact, which speaks of struggle, revenge, and punishment. There is an analogy between life, drama and game.

51/


The elliptical structure of metal acts as this SYM BO L I C EN T I TY that throughout the play is transformed to perform different functions. An element that divides the R I TUAL SPAC E from the ordinary.

It becomes a path for the sacred, a roof to the earthly, the visual abstraction of a stadium and a window to the universe of Greek mythology. It is an ACTI V E EL EM ENT of the theatrical convention, and it establishes a direct relationship with the characters.

On each side, there is a row of LO C K ER S, which have a practical function, because all the props are stored there and they are manipulated by the actors themselves. Among the lockers were placed various BEN C H ES , where actors wait to enter ritual space, but at the same time are part of the scene in a passive way. For P R O P D ESI G N we followed the same concept SY M B O L ISM to establish space and time, using different materials and giving each object a symbolic load that goes beyond its denotation.

T H E FAN TAST I C WO R L D O F JUAN O R O L tells de story of Mexico’s half-forgotten B-movie master, “involuntary surrealist” JUAN O R O L (1897–1988), a selfmade man of showbiz whose career spanned half a century and nearly 60 films. An homage to the golden age of cinema, the wiles of memory, and the art of fantasy. The story covers a large period of time of the 20th century and it takes places in different parts of the world. The art department along with the rest of the crew developed a thorough investigation to analyze the aesthetic principles of each time and place to create different worlds and take the audience back to those specific moments of history.
