For the Moxy Hotel, AK Lichtdesign developed a contemporary lighting concept for the outdoor areas with the aim of creating a modern and inviting atmosphere. The lighting design emphasizes the urban character of the hotel and combines aesthetic impact with clear functional requirements.

In close coordination with Schmidt Architects, a comprehensive concept was created that precisely links architecture, outdoor space, and light. The lighting solution highlights pathways, seating areas, and architectural elements, providing orientation, safety, and a distinctive visual identity for the hotel both during the day and in the evening.

Challenge

The challenge was to connect clear and functional outdoor lighting with an independent design statement. Light should provide orientation and safety while simultaneously making the urban, lively character of the hotel visible from the outside.

Solution

The lighting design is based on a clear architectural stance and precise coordination among all parties involved.

1. Consultation and Preconcept Lighting Design
   Development of an overarching lighting concept to define atmosphere, impact, and outdoor space structure.

2. Architecture and Pathway Related Lighting Guidance
   Targeted lighting of pathways, entrances, and seating zones for clear orientation and safe use.

3. Aesthetic Accentuation
   Highlighting architectural elements to strengthen the hotel’s visual identity.

4. Execution Planning and Lighting Scene Design
   Technically precise planning and coordinated lighting scenes for different times of the day and usage situations.

The result is a clear yet atmospheric outdoor design that enhances the character of the Moxy Hotel and welcomes visitors even in the outdoor area.
