🔆 Technology that becomes part of the space.
With Main-Light, Tobias Trübenbacher and Andreas Lang chose to make the solar technology visible instead of hiding it.
During the day, the colour-printed ASCA solar films create light patterns and shaded areas. At night, the generated energy powers the lighting system. The project uses ewo connex-x lighting controls for demand-responsive lighting.
Main-Light is installed at Weseler Werft in Frankfurt from May to October 2026 as part of World Design Capital Frankfurt RheinMain 2026.
Follow the project through WDC 2026
