Located in the heart of downtown Belo Horizonte, Brazil, the newly constructed office building Edificio Renaissance features a stunningly lit façade. In a city without much architectural façade lighting, the modern yet simple illumination of Edificio Renaissance makes a statement.

For the sleek glass façade, a custom Traxon Monochrome Tube in blue was used to create consistent lines of light. This project required a fixture that is slim and versatile to fit comfortably in the glass façade while remaining hidden. The slender and compact fixture housing of Traxon Monochrome Tube allows it to fit into the smallest of installation spaces, and a customized piece holds the fixtures in place securely, providing the perfect solution for Edificio Renaissance.

Additionally, Monochrome Tube’s daisy chain topology and simple cabling allows for easy installation and low maintenance costs. Hidden from sight during the day, the Monochrome Tube projects steady blue light at night, creating a glowing icon in the Belo Horizonte skyline.
