Solution
In relation to the interior spaces of the building, the focus of the intervention was on revamping the lighting in Megalò's shopping galleries and the main square, now hosting over 110 shops. The Green Space Perfect Fit 3D downlights, made from more than 65% post-industrial recycled materials¹, emerged as the perfect solution for the Megalò shopping center. Leveraging the remarkable customizability and unique design facilitated by 3D printing technologies, Philips MyCreation tailored the downlights to the exact dimensions (245mm) required to seamlessly integrate into the existing luminaire housings.
By eliminating the need for adapter rings for each downlight, this project significantly reduced the estimated installation time by 50%. The lightweight nature of 3D printing further streamlined the installation process.
As a result of this innovative solution, Megalò achieved a remarkable 70% energy savings, translating to a cost savings of around €90,000 per year and a total energy reduction of 265,055.70 kWh annually. The installation of 1,400 3D printed downlights not only reduced costs and installation time but also showcased a pioneering collaboration between Philips MyCreation and Megalò, championing a new, environmentally conscious approach in the retail landscape.
