The Ringo Star series as a visual anchor The Recreation and Wellness Center sets new architectural standards

The new Recreation and Wellness Center at the Universidad de Lima in Peru sets new standards in campus design and forms a central hub for student life. The centre offers a wide range of leisure facilities, communal rooms, a cafeteria and advice services for students. It has been awarded LEED Gold certification, combining ecological and economic aspects. The architectural structure contains seismic isolators to meet the requirements of a region prone to earthquakes. The interiors are characterised by a pleasant indoor climate, interior landscaping and the use of energy-saving products.

The visual anchor is the light-flooded atrium with our striking Ringo Star pendant luminaires. Arranged in different sizes and heights, the luminaires are visible from afar and, with their round shape, form a creative counterpoint to the stringent exterior architecture. Equipped with high-intensity lens reflector optics, the atrium is radiated by a powerful luminous flux that can be simultaneously adapted to different lighting conditions. The Ringo Star series fits seamlessly into a wide variety of environments, from representative areas to workspaces, and enables consistent, aesthetic lighting design for the entire property.

The Recreation and Wellness Center of the Universidad de Lima in Peru has been awarded the NIRSA Outstanding Facilities Award, the American Institute of Architects (AIA) New England Design Award and the Athletic Business Magazine, Facility of Merit.
