Photography © Daniel Mikkelsen SHOWCASE Holmenkollen - Oslo, Norway Located on the highest hill of Oslo, Holmenkollbakken is one of the most famous ski jumps in the world and can be seen from anywhere in the city. This landmark is now illuminated by Traxon’s Graze Shield AC XB and Wall Washer Shield AC XB in cold and warm white hues. Controlled by an e:cue Butler XT, the entire steel façade is illuminated from the inside and underneath the jumping area in four dynamic scenarios. The installation illuminates a jumper gliding down the hill; it glows and pulses like a star or ice crystals on the façade; it contrasts dark and light sections of the hill moving up and down on the façade; and the running light can also be dimmed to 75% and 50%. The controller’s eight digital inputs interface with the overall control system of the ski stadium. The project’s technical challenges include finding the optimal position of the fixtures, and installing the fixtures 80 meters high; mobile cranes and crew safety had to be quality assured at a high level. Many parties were involed and the result is a masterpiece of architectural lighting—a truly stunning project of a lifetime.
