The Architectural Heliostat & Lighting System was conceptualised by French Architect Jean Nouvel to address shading issues and improve natural lighting in high density urban areas. The system, designed by Kennovations for Sydney’s award-winning One Central Park development, is made up of 40 motorised heliostats (on the West Tower roof) and 320 reflective mirror panels (on the East Tower cantilever) which captures and redirects sunlight into retail spaces and landscaped terraces. The installation is a world-first with respect to the sheer size and application. At night, the integrated LED lighting system displays video interpretations of Sydney landscapes, significantly contributing to the property’s public artwork requirements.
