A visionary architect and trusted partner. We are deeply saddened by the passing of Uwe Kiessler – a brilliant architect, a thoughtful listener, and someone who shaped ERCO's architectural identity in a lasting way. In designing our Technical Centre in Lüdenscheid, Kiessler did far more than create a building. He translated a vision – our idea of an “overall for engineers” – into architecture. His design was not about representation, but about purpose: a workshop-like space that fosters communication, innovation and precision. He helped us create an environment that embodies our culture of engineering and light. The result is a building that is still admired today – open, intelligent and humble. A piece of architecture that perfectly reflects our values. Our heartfelt condolences go to his family and all who worked alongside him. 🕊️ 🤍

📍 How do you illuminate a space from 28 meters above—and still achieve brilliance? At Geneo in Singapore Science Park, lighting wasn't just a technical requirement—it was a design challenge. The vast, timber-clad canopy spanning the heart of the campus needed not only safety lighting, but atmosphere, precision and elegance. ERCO delivered a solution that shines from above: ✨ 100lx on the ground—from a 28m mounting height ✨ Perfectly uniform light distribution with Atrium double focus luminaires ✨ Aesthetic integration into the architecture with black reflectors This is how lighting transforms public spaces into places of connection and well-being.

✨Lighting Ancient Civilisation with Modern Precision At ERCO, we understand lighting in museums goes beyond illumination, it's about storytelling, preservation, and emotional resonance. Our work at the Shanghai Museum exemplifies this philosophy. As the largest display of Egyptian artefacts ever staged in Asia, this exhibition demanded a lighting solution that was both technically advanced and deeply respectful of the artefacts’ fragility and historic value. Highlights of our approach: ✨Low-damage, UV-free lighting for delicate pigments and organic materials ✨Axis showcase luminaires to precisely highlight intricate artefacts ✨Parscan and Optec spotlights to model larger sculptures and sarcophagi with minimal glare ✨Carefully planned angles and 3000K colour temperature to enhance texture and materiality while maintaining conservation standards This project demonstrates how thoughtful, flexible lighting can shape powerful experiences and connect visitors to history in meaningful ways. 🔗 Learn more about the project here: https://xmrrwallet.com/cmx.plnkd.in/ef5hR88x Project Credits: Lighting design: Shanghai Hua Cheng Cultural & Technology Co., Ltd.
