177 Bothwell Street in Glasgow is one of Scotland’s largest smart buildings and a prominent example of contemporary commercial architecture. Designed as a highly flexible office environment, the building integrates lighting as an architectural tool, supporting both spatial definition and user comfort across its exterior and roofscape.

XOOLUM IP67 was used to define the building’s roof contour, tracing the geometry of the structure with continuous linear light. Integrated along the roof edge, the compact luminaire forms a clear, uninterrupted outline that reinforces the architectural form while remaining visually restrained. A defined beam angle was selected to ensure precise coverage of the contour, avoiding unwanted light spill into the surrounding environment and the night sky.

Lighting control is managed via a central system, allowing operation to be aligned with usage patterns and external conditions. The result is a clearly articulated building silhouette after dark, where linear light emphasises structure and scale while maintaining controlled, efficient outdoor illumination.

The Mall of Scandinavia in Solna, Stockholm, is one of the largest shopping centres in the Nordic region, featuring expansive public areas and multi‑level spaces with double‑height shop fronts. The architectural concept required accent lighting that supports orientation and atmosphere while integrating seamlessly into the built environment.

XOOLUM IP67 was used to create linear accent lighting throughout selected areas, marking different levels and spatial zones with clearly defined lines of light. Integrated discreetly into architectural elements, the compact linear system provides controlled illumination with a restrained visual presence. RGB light engines enable colour‑based accents that respond to spatial functions and circulation, while defined optical configurations ensure consistent light distribution without glare.

By combining compact dimensions, precise optics and robust IP67 protection, XOOLUM IP67 allows accent lighting to become an integral part of the architectural language. The result is a clear, legible spatial structure, where light enhances orientation and atmosphere without overpowering the architecture.

Nacka Forum is a major shopping mall and an important urban destination, where the main entrance plays a key role in guiding visitors safely and intuitively into the building. The architectural concept defined a clear vision for the lighting design, combining orientation, visual clarity and a strong architectural presence within a highly frequented public space.

XOOLUM IP67 was integrated to provide indirect orientation lighting along the entrance area, supporting wayfinding through calm, continuous illumination. The linear luminaires deliver uniform light distribution while remaining visually restrained, ensuring that circulation paths are clearly defined without introducing glare. In combination with vertical light elements, the indirect light provided by XOOLUM IP67 reinforces spatial legibility and creates a welcoming transition from exterior to interior.

The result is an entrance defined by clear orientation and architectural coherence, where indirect linear light guides movement and enhances the spatial experience while remaining seamlessly integrated into the overall design.

The Channel 9 office and studio building in Perth is defined by a distinctive folded façade that gives the structure depth and rhythm. The architectural concept required lighting to become part of the façade itself, enhancing its sculptural character while remaining discreet and precisely controlled.

XOOLUM IP67 was integrated from the rear of the façade elements to create a uniform wall‑washing effect across the folded surfaces. Fitted with reflector optics, the compact linear luminaires generate a controlled brightness gradient that accentuates the geometry and materiality of the façade without visible glare or light spill. The IP67‑rated construction ensures reliable performance in exposed outdoor conditions while allowing the luminaires to remain visually restrained within the architecture.

The result is a façade shaped by light rather than luminaires, where controlled linear illumination reinforces architectural depth and creates a clear, consistent night‑time identity for the building.
