A distinguished lighting concept has been developed for this single-family house with extensive garden and pool. The walkway passing through the garden is lit by
custom lights, indirectly and pleasant. The small pond was transformed into a glowing lighting feature, by using the bespoke-fibre luminaire "Munich Reeds".
In the spa-and living areas, glare-reduced downlights enhance the spaces with high visual comfort; in the indirectly illuminated staircase, a "house ghost",
a highly polished drop made of aluminium, floats in the well hole and is lit from below. All family rooms and bathrooms are illuminated with a custom-designed
"family" of suspensions, with cables and shades in colorful fabric. Playful and randomly arranged by using a grid of ceiling hooks, they serve for both ambient
and task lighting, and with the grid of hooks they can be changed according to further spatial developments.
