The Swedish Old Graveyard using the new lighting

Is located in Sweden Malm Old Graveyard for the first time held in Sweden funeral building lighting. The ceremony of the lighting design environment and solemn atmosphere with natural aesthetics combined to create the organic joint lighting and space, the etiquette is designed to meet the lighting needs, provides a fun night lighting for the busy urban road. The lighting project is designed by Malte Sahlgren, who has been engaged in the lighting design of 18 Swedish Malmo. Old Graveyard was founded in 1822, its location is located in the center of the town of East-West block junction (Gustav Adolfs square and Kings Park), the cemetery of the preservation of the city's major Malmo cemetery. Sahlgren with the Malmo municipal government lighting designer Johan Moritz and the common button to discuss the cemetery lighting design.

Moritz out the design scheme, then Spectra is responsible for the implementation of the project, implementation and supervision of the project and lighting equipment installation engineering. Engineering design and construction personnel face enormous challenges. The workload of the design itself is very large, many details need to pay attention to, these details will not be ignored. The project is also an image project, it also provides a place for people to spread and stay in the night. Works of grace and a color lighting design are just right, the initial lighting is the choice of soft white light source. The entire design does not include a prominent outer lamp housing, lamp posts, wiring and any equipment that is not compatible with the natural environment. These lights vary with the seasons. The lighting design attaches great importance to detail. The main focus is on the sacred space of the cemetery and a welcome feeling, making it a quiet meditation and rest, away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

The only outstanding vertical component in the lighting design is to illuminate the cemetery and trees. So the key lighting plan highlights the road on both sides of the oak, ash and beech. These all give a person a kind of vertical feeling. 54 trees were selected for upward illumination, and the trees were lined up from east to west. The lighting effect of these trees is achieved through the Bega 8089 series of buried lights, which are protected by a IP67, equipped with a rotating focusing lens system. Designer Moritz will be the tree as a reflection element, personally tested a variety of different lamps, and finally decided to use Bega 8089. Bega 8089 power of 35 watts, long service life, color temperature of 3000K. One of the reasons for choosing this series of lamps is that they are of good quality and strong structure, which can withstand the severe test of temperature in winter. The installation depth is 120mm. They have little effect on the roots of trees. Graveyard is a central ring road and the four tree fur trees, these trees using the same Bega lighting, also used MR16 type 8016 MR16 buried lights, halogen light source is durable. These lamps can emit light in the leaves. The other side of the cemetery is a 40 - meter - long spherical Memorial surrounded by a copper fence surrounded by candles and flowers. In order to maintain the color of the candle at night, Moritz focuses on the surrounding edges, adding a soft outline to the edges. Side lighting is the use of intermittent mosaic of steel in the linear lamps to achieve, these lamps have good environmental erosion resistance, long service life. These linear lamps are imported from france. The pocket fence is decorated with orange light, while five trees next to it are illuminated by two Bega 8089.

The lamp cemetery all of the same controller can automatically control the connection in the dusk and dawn. Other features of the lighting scheme include: all lamps are connected by underground wiring, taking into account the dignity of the cemetery, the ground floor of the wiring slot has the church's own experienced team to implement. The installation of the luminaire is completed by the electrical contractor. The completion of the project was once affected by heavy snow. The lighting design is positive for all aspects of the city, including the Swedish church, the town, the community and the government. The two phase of the lighting project will be Old Graveyard from north to south of the road.
