History

Ingélux was created in 2001 in the area of Lyon, France, to value the research that was conducted at the CNRS (French National Scientific Research Center) on natural and artifi-cial light in building and urban applications.The company was started by 2 young architects-engineers, Laurent Escaffre and Chris-tophe Marty, both associate directors, who still manage the company. Since that date, Ingelux has grown steadily and counts now 13 highly skilled and experienced employees. Ingélux is an independent and privately owned company with 4 shareholders.

Positionning

Ingélux is an innovative lighting design and engineering office which uniquely combines a sensitive approach of light together with a strong scientific background.We aim at being the preferred partner of professionals (architects, engineering firms, municipalities, urban planners, manufacturers, public research labs) for indoor and out-door lighting applications. We strive to help them achieving their goals by creating high quality luminous environments, at day and night, with the smallest impact on the environ-ment and the lowest energy consumption. Our long lasting cooperation with renown architects, global engineering firms, leading property developers, urban planners of large cities and key manufacturers makes our application knowledge always up to date and accurate.We are involved in international research and development programs on fundamental needs of lighting applications in order to consolidate our knowledge and methodologies in this field.Ingelux is also engaged in a number of international initiatives which aim at using light and its enabling technologies in the best possible way (IEA - CIE - Greenlight etc.. )

Approach

Our mix of architectural and engineering backgrounds has made us able to develop strong listening and understanding skills towards very differ-ent type of stakeholders (artists, architects, engineers, investors, users, deficient people, …). We use this specific competence to translate the different needs into satisfactory lighting requirements for all and to which we eventually answer with meaningful and reliable solutions.Projects are realized according to well-structured processes and are sup-ported by project management principles.Calculations, simulations, prototypes and demonstrators are broadly used to verify assumptions, either internally or together with our clients.Projects are well documented all along the different phases to make pro-gress tangible and easy to track.

Louvre - Sal le des EtatsMona Lisa

Development of new lighting scheme for the room including the use of daylight.Development of brand new LED spot dedicated to Mona Lisa painting.One of the challenge was to find the optimum balance between the changing daylight coming for the roof glass and artificial lighting for visual comfort and best exposure of the paintings. A specific automatic control system has been designed to adjust in real time artificial lighting according to the quantity of daylight for preservation of the fragile paint-ings.

Rhônes-Alpes County Hal l Art i f ic ia l and dayl ight design

This new administrative and public building designed by Christian de Portzamparc is dedicated to the Rhône Alpes County, accomodating offices (1454 employees), a debate room (500 seats), a boardroom, reception halls, a staff res-taurant and a car park with a total of 45 000 m2. Ingelux offered its expertise in daylight to the design team to calibrate the main glass roof of the atrium.The lighting scheme for the debate room included special devices to meet with video-recording requirements.A 1:1 mock-up was developed for office rooms and final users were invited to share their preferences within different lighting solutions leading to a floor standing luminaire. The scheme uses very efficient light sources and an intel-ligent lighting control system is also installed. These measures and the description done by Ingelux con-tributed to the project being awarded GREENLIGHT.

Plan Lumière Lyon ZAC Confluence Phase 2 - 8 décembre 2011

CHROMATISME ET QUALITÉ DE LUMIÈRE

La température de couleur générale du quartier du marché (Espace public : chaussées, trottoirs et placettes) sera la même partout et adaptée au piéton.Les coeurs d’îlots auront une température de couleur appropriée à la création d’une ambiance intime. Pas de contrainte particulière pour les axes pénétrants, ils devront être traités de manière unifiée sur toute leur longueur à l’échelle de la ville afin de relier les différents quartiers (chaque axe peut avoir sa propre personnalité et sa température de couleur correspondante) . La température de couleur des allées du Champ seront en cohérence avec celle de l’espace public du quartier du Marché, pour les accès aux bâti-ments et les parkings on raisonnera de manière analogique aux coeurs d’îlots. Enfin, les espaces spécifiques (Place Casimir Perier, Place Centrale, Place de la Confluence, Intersections allées du Champ) sont traités en continuité avec l’espace public des rues. Dans le cas d’une éventuelle solution par caténaires celle-ci devra être adaptée au profil et aux contraintes des espaces à éclairer. La LED est à privilégier mais avec une température de couleur au maximum de 3500 K sur l’espace public.

Shangai ExpoUBPA Zone

Outdoor lighting design, specification and project manage-ment for the “best urban lighting practices” area. The goal was to create a sensible and festive lighting, con-veying a feeling of poetry, yet visibly conscious by limiting ligthing pollution to an absolute minimum.When night falls, the lighting installation transforms the site into an imaginary garden where light elements reveal them-selves and colonize the urban space. The facade and the chimney of the old coal plant, omnipres-ent thrhoughout the UBPA, was used as projection screen for this lighting show.The whole installation was controlled through a Centralized Technical Management unit, which allows to balance both urban, architectural, and theatrical lighting.

1. CONCEPTS ET PRINCIPES D’ECLAIRAGE - GENERAL

Ambiance lumineuse :

1- Appel : Element lumineux vertical qui se détache du hall général avec des vues depuis toutes les directions pour assurer la bonne lisibilité de l’entrée.

2- L’ensemble de l’espace d’attente et de la zone d’inspection filtrage sont regroupés dans une même ambiance lumineuse (ambiance intime type dressing) qui sera modu-lée par la direction des luminaires et leur densification au niveau de l’inspection filtrage.

3- L’ambiance lumineuse de la zone de dégagement est dictée par l’ambiance lumineuse de la salle d’embarquement adjacent, l’idée étant de lier au maximum ces deux zones afin de simuler la sortie de la zone de sécurité.

Une exception peut être faite sur la zone menant au contrôle police étant donné que dans ce cas, le passager ne sera pas encore libre des procédures de sécurité. L’extension de l’ambiance de la zone attente / inspection filtrage permettrait alors une bonne orientation et serait en logique avec l’ambiance lumineuse suivante.
