American Express Sydney, Australia

The premise of the American Express office complex in Sydney was efficiency and flexibility, with human comfort at the forefront. The architects Cox Richardson with Crone Partners reflected this approach in the building, for example with prominent sun protection walls. Vertical louvres rotate from morning to afternoon, varying the visual experience while also providing climate control.

This all-encompassing concept is also continued inside. The eyes of every employee perform a tremendous amount during the working day. This is only feasible if the lighting is right. American Express use the Matric F5 LED recessed luminaire here. The details make the difference with these luminaires: microprismatic optics and satin louver ensure glare-free work, wallwasher and opal diffuser create a harmonious lighting. Available in a variety of tasteful colours, Matric effortlessly adapts to any office project.
