Rathaus Hohenems
Good lighting plays a central role in visual perception and emotional experience.
The New Town Hall in Hohenems
Opened in 2025, the new town hall creates a modern architectural landmark in the center of Hohenems. The sustainable timber-hybrid building, designed by Berktold Weber Architekten, brings together all administrative departments under one roof while opening itself to the surrounding urban space. Bright, natural materials, flexible floor plans, and consistently recyclable building materials create a future-oriented civic building that combines functionality, sustainability, and architectural quality.
»The appearance of the new town hall is a direct expression of its construction and materiality.«
Lighting Concept – Town Hall Hohenems
For the new town hall in Hohenems, we had the opportunity to supply the luminaires and contribute to a clear and welcoming lighting atmosphere. Balanced lighting is particularly important in a public building: it provides orientation, supports focused work for employees, and creates a pleasant and inviting environment for visitors. The result is a bright, modern setting where people can easily find their way and feel comfortable.
