Light Up 13 Layer Remains Cultural Heritage

Taiwan Power Company

Cultural Heritage and Culture Industry Design Light Up 13 Layer Remains Cultural Heritage by Taiwan Power Company Light Up 13 Layer Remains is a public art lighting project for a former copper refinery in northern Taiwan. The mining site closed in 1973, and its basic structure was preserved. A color temperature of 2100K was chosen to suit the outer crust of the structure. Amber light inside recalls the fire used during refining. Luminance rises with each level, from 1 nit at the base to 6 nits at the upper levels, so the layers are clearly read. Nearby vegetation is lit at 3000K. In total, 365 luminaires in 15 angles and wattages were installed.
