  • Gerd Pfarré: „Licht ist Musik für die Augen“Gerd Pfarré: „Lighting is Music to the Eye“

    Gerd Pfarrè ist unabhängiger Lichtdesigner und realisiert viele internationale Projekte. Für die erste Luminale in Frankfurt entwickelte er das vollkommen neuartige Event-Format „Celebration of Light“ für die internationale Licht-Community. Legendär war die „Celebration of Light“ während der Luminale 2004 mit Ingo Maurer und seinem Team auf dem Gelände der Goethe-Universität, die Pfarré in Zusammenarbeit mit dem IALD organisiert hatte. Jetzt sprach Luminapolis mit Gerd Pfarré über die bevorstehende Ausstellung seiner Projekte in München.

    Luminapolis: Gerd Pfarré, you are founder of pfarré lighting design. These days you will open an exhibition in Munich, presenting selected projects of the last ten years. The title of this retrospective is „lighting is music to the eye“. What does it mean?

    Gerd Pfarré: Years ago, this phrase was the spontaneous reaction of a drummer, who asked me about my profession. I described him what we do, and he replied „ah, so you are making music for the eyes !“ The title leaves room for interpretation. It makes sense without the need for a perfect explanation or definition. This is what I like about it. To me, „lighting is music“ has more to do with feeling, quality, harmony, and composition rather than with taste or opinion. A good lighting project can have a great impact to us; surrounded by the right light, we are feeling well. Dolby surround lighting design, if you want. In fact, one can regard a lighting scheme as an orchestration, don’t you think ? And sometimes, we cannot listen to what we see…

    Luminapolis: What are your personal experiences with light? How did you come in contact with professional lighting?

    Gerd Pfarré: In the mid 70ties, in the basement of my parent’s house, I illuminated my silver drumkit and made photos of it. In the photos, the light sources were hidden. I really liked these images with a kind of stage-like sparkle, drama, and the play of light and shadow. I even prepared a dark background, for a better contrast. I was 16 years old. At this time, my interest in light and lighting began. In one of my early interior projects, 1982 or so, I missed the right light. I designed a rather simple luminaire for a bathroom, and it was manufactured, in brass, nickel-coated, with 2 Linestra bulbs (those energy efficient bulbs with a filament, you remember ?). This was my first professional experience. Many others

    followed during my time with Ingo Maurer. In his „laboratory“ I got in touch with product design, but after a couple of years and „learning by burning“, I prefered working on lighting projects. I got hooked with the project planning, and I still have a lot of fun doing it.

    Luminapolis: What is the most important project you realized in the last ten years?

    Gerd Pfarré: No doubt, the „Palace of International Forums“ in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. A once-in-a-lifetime project. A good budget, almost no time for discussions. All designs and decisions were made in a rush; in some cases, things were built or already on site before the plan was printed out. The client was happy, and we did a great job. The chemistry in the entire design team could not have been better; it was an extraordinary experience.

    Luminapolis: What do you think are the challenges for professional lighting designers in the near future?

    Gerd Pfarré: Create outstanding, wonderful projects, well balanced with the architecture, the city- or landscape. As more good lighting projects we realize, as better it will be for all of us; for the quality of light, our quality of life, and for the quality of our profession. Practising as an independent lighting designer is not always easy: budget restraints, compromises, etc. etc., but creating high quality will always increase the awareness of our clients and the public at-large – because high quality projects win design awards and are published widely. To me, one of the challenges for the future lies in raising the bar of lighting quality by using highly efficient and sustainable technologies.

    Luminapolis: What is your next project?

    Gerd Pfarré: We are involved in an interesting study for the public lighting of an urban quarter with 600 apartments, a school, shops, cafés etc., in France. Among other projects, a new restaurant in Frankfurt will be opened soon. Along with the lighting design, we created a very cool custom-designed lighting system which is currently being manufactured. In November, I am having interesting appointments in the Middle East region: we will keep you up to date!

    Gerd Pfarré is an independent lighting designer who is working in the whole world. For the first Luminale in Frankfurt he invented the format „Celebration of Light“, a new event-format for the international lighting community. One of the most impressive events was the „Celebration of Light“ during Luminale 2004 with Ingo Maurer and his team. Pfarré has organized it in cooperation with IALD. Luminapolis spoke with Gerd Pfarré about his exhibition in Munich.

  • Claus Sendlinger: Über Licht im HotelClaus Sendlinger: On Lighting in Hotels

    Luminapolis: Claus Sendlinger, you are founder and CEO of Design Hotels and specialist in integrated concepts of hospitality. The hotels have a leading position for the evolution of design. Hotels are something like „Lighthouses of modern living“. Are they also „Lighthouses“ for lighting design?

    Claus Sendlinger
    : Lighting is an integral part of a holistic concept for design hotels. Some hotels are definitely pioneers for lighting design and we’re continuing to see lots of innovation in this area.

    Luminapolis
    : Do you know a hotel using light or lighting design as a theme?

    Claus Sendlinger
    : The Nordic Light Hotel in Stockholm, the Kruisherenhotel in Maastricht and the Lanchid 19 in Budapest are examples of hotels with great lighting design. An important factor in Swedish life is the quality of local light, or the lack of it. Interior Designer Lars Pihl therefore incorporated this changing atmosphere into the Nordic Ligh Hotel. The light installations inside the Nordic Light Hotel fluctuate with the time of the day, the season or the guest’s mood. Another great lighting design project is at the Kruisherenhotel in Maastricht, which was formerly a monastery. Ingo Maurer was responsible for the lighting design and developed, among other elements, the designs for the entrance “tunnel,” the central lighting system over the entire axis of the church, the hall lighting and the outside lighting. Szövetség ’39 and Nextlab are the art designers of the moveable accordion-like glass façade of Lánchíd 19 hotel, further animated by the changing colours of an innovative lighting design concept. These two groups of young professionals, working on experimental developments, set up a workgroup of engineers, producers and co-artists for this project. The result is a dynamic facade, which lives together with its surroundings – a 21st century mural.

    Luminapolis
    : What are the main mistake lighting designers can do in hotels?

    Claus Sendlinger
    : The light concept should be adapted to the different areas of the hotel and thus cater to different moods. The biggest mistake a lighting designer can do is to create a light environment that does not fit to the concept of the hotel.

    Luminapolis
    : Do think that Lighting is an important part for high-end hotel concepts in the future?

    Claus Sendlinger
    : Yes, definitely. Light plays a crucial role in the hotel design environment. It can create a whole different experience, not just by visually enhancing certain design elements, but also in creating the right mood and atmosphere.

  • Petition an die EU: Wir können das Verbot der Glühbirne nicht akzeptieren!Petition to EU: We can’t accept the ban of the bulb!

    Ein Verbot der Glühbirne durch die EU können wir – Künstler, Ausstellungsmacher, Kuratoren, Architekten und Designer nicht akzeptieren. Auf die Vielfalt des künstlichen Lichts können wir unmöglich verzichten. Traditionelle Glühbirnen sind essenzieller Teil unserer Beleuchtungskultur, von den Bauhaus-Lampen bis zur Kunst des Lichts, wie bei László Moholy-Nagy oder Felix Gonzalez Torres. Halogenlampen sind ebenfalls unverzichtbar, insbesondere für die Beleuchtung von Kunst, für die Illumination von Räumen, Bühnen und Fassaden. Wir fordern die Rücknahme der Verfügung:

    We cannot accept a ban of the light bulb by the EU – say artist, exhibition organiser, curators, architects and designers. We can renounce the variety of the artificial light impossibly. Traditional light bulbs are an essential part of our lighting culture, from the Bauhaus lamps up to Light art like art pieces of László Moholy-Nagy or Felix Gonzalez-Torres. Halogen lamps are also necessary, in particular for the lighting of art, for the illumination of rooms, stages and facades. We demand the taking back of the order:
