Hasenstab Architects recently designed an addition to the Considine Professional Building at Akron Childrenās Hospital, making use of Lumettaās Shadow drum fixtures and Double Bar pendants.
In conceiving the design of the space, Hasenstab Interior Designer Carla Cremers considered the promotion of a feeling of enhanced well-being by decreasing stress and creating positive distractions.Ā āDue to the Shadow drum and Double Bar pendantsā modification capabilities in terms of sizing and inner diffuser options, they were easy selectionsā, she notes.
The lighting modifications introduced enabled Hasenstab to achieve design continuity with other fixtures in the space. Carla underscores that: āClear wayfinding is key in decreasing stress. This was also attained by emphasizing floor color themes with the vibrantly matching LumenateĀ® inner shades and coordinating TransLumenateĀ® shades, for the Shadow drums”.
The Shadow drums are surface mounted at 48ā OD x 15ā H, using D921 Trans Cool TransLumenateĀ® for the outer shade and D57 Apple LumenateĀ® (Fresh) for the inner shade. The same inner and outer shades were used for the 3-Tier custom Drum pendant measuring 28ā OH x 28ā OW, located at the Mahoning Valley location. Double Bar pendants PB660 feature D35 Grid Chalk LumenateĀ® under the Whimsy family with an F8 steel finish.
Jack Duffy & Associates is the preferred agency for this project.
