Light integrated with architecture. Discover the alternative to multimedia LED facades

Building facades are increasingly used for multimedia presentations. This trend is reflected in a system of lighting fixtures for backlighting the facade's rustication.
• A growing trend in the area of innovative architecture is the use of the building shell as a surface for multimedia presentations.
• The Fasko system from KLUŚ integrates light with architecture follows this trend.

The dual functionality underlying the Fasko solution is in line with the "rustication" techniques used in architecture and construction for years. During the day, the Fasko lighting fixture can be a channel in the plaster and after dusk – a luminaire built into the facade. In short, the Fasko design allows you to build rustication with a simultaneous lighting function.The aforementioned dual functionality enables aesthetic minimalism. It limits the number of resources and technologies used to implement the project. In the context of optimizing the construction budget, this is undoubtedly an advantage to consider, because 2 in 1 means savings.

A simple alternative to multimedia LED facades

The Fasko system is a very reasonable, ingenious alternative to the available digital technologies that enable the construction of multimedia facades. Fasko can provide visual communication after dark using conventional, simple methods. To describe this effect, let's imagine gaps in the facade of the building, one above the other, which glow in sections after dusk, forming any glowing pattern or number. Fasko can also combine simplicity with new technology in a hybrid way thanks to the use of controllable digital LED strips.

Benefits for the architect, installer and developer

Fasko is a solution that meets the needs of several industries. Architects use rustication to obtain various rhythms of divisions on the designed facade, using the effects during the day and at night. On the other hand, audio/visual installation companies and developers have an interesting, economical alternative to large-scale multimedia LED facade systems, such as LED nets or facade mapping technology.

Some technical information from KLUŚ:

In the Fasko system, you can use a flat cover, which creates a line of light flush with the facade surface (e.g. HS-22, LIGER-22) or a recessed BONI-22 cover, which produces an interesting effect of rustication with backlighting in the facade of the building.
The Fasko lighting fixture is adapted for sealing. The use of this system enables the use of 8K series LED strips. These are sealed tapes in a silicone sleeve with the “KLIK” assembly system. Their easy assembly allows for efficient service, which becomes more and more important especially when working at heights. It is possible to mount one or two LED strips in the fixture - it all depends on the planned effect. The lighting fixtures can be combined into polygonal shapes.
