LED Lighting Shines a Sustainable Light over Bella Center in Copenhagen

2009-12-04 11: 51

3XN has designed an LED luminaire – GOTHAM, which uses solar energy for efficient street lighting. Seven lamps have been erected at Bella Center in Copenhagen in conjunction with the upcoming UN Climate Summit


The street lamp is a result of a close co-operation between 3XN, Scotia Lighting, EWO and a number of other partners.  The goal was to create a sculptural and CO2-neutral street lighting solution.  The advanced technology results in the street lamps generating more energy than they use.

GOTHAM is specially designed for the Scotia lamp post:

- The luminaire works in conjunction with the mast to form a very sculptural expression – with a veiled reference to the lamp’s futuristic LED technology, says Kim Herforth Nielsen, Principal at 3XN

The seven streetlamps are located in Parking Lot 5 at Bella Center’s main entrance and naturally will continue their role after the Climate Summit.
