1. INTRODUCTION - ARCHITECTURAL
CHARACTERISTIC OF THE BUILDING

• The Building
• Neoclassical style with a double T or H shape
• Two symmetrical courtyards
• Strictly symmetrical facade with an Ionian-style
  entrance
• Entrance emphasized by two heavy columns with
  impresive capitals, similar architecture to the
  Propylaea of Acropolis
• Classical fresco on the inner walls designed by
  the Bavarian Karl Rahl and painted after 1888 by
  Eduardo Lebiedzky

• The Exterior
• Five statues stand in front of the building,
  commemorating important figures of the modern
  Hellenic history (William E. Gladstone, Rigas
  Pheraios of Velestino, Gregorios V,Count, loannis
  Kapodistrias, Adamantios Korais).
• Exterior consists of stone and green areas,
  formatting a circular entrance space. Two marble
  fountains at the front of the entrance complete
  the scene.
• There also two paths that climb up sideways, at
  the front of the building.

2. CURRENT LIGHTING STATUS

• SPOT PROJECTORS FOR THE FRESCO
• LINEAR LIGHTING OF THE UPPER TRIANGLE OF THE
  BUILDING
• TRADITIONAL LUMINAIRES FOR THE SURROUNDINGS
• PATHWAY MARKERS (NOT WORKING)

2. CURRENT LIGHTING STATUS (Cont.)

• Actually, we saw no light nor water in the
  fountains!!

3. LIGHTING CONCEPT - DECISIONS

• Aims and goals
• Emphasize the functionality of the building ( a
  place for learning, communication and
  intellectual exchanges).
• Show the historical and cultural characteristics
  of building.
• Use the lighting to create an attractive
  atmosphere. Visitors are invited to feel
  attracted and curious to explore. Emphasize the
  hug-shaped entrance.
• Arrange the surroundings to create a friendly and
  calming place.
• Emphasize the green space, highlight the
  fountains and the statues.
• Finally Playing with columns and fresco, giving
  the impression of a book that is ready to reveal
  its content but not without effort.

6. IF THERE WAS MORE TIME.. THINGS TO CONSIDER
ABOUT

• Examine different scenarios
• Examine lighting with respect to the two other
  buildings which consist Athens's Trilogy
• Full technical and economical analysis, regarding
  various different types of luminaires
• Exact photometric computations how much lux
  needed and how much are finally delivered?
  (insert virtual surfaces in Relux)
• Regard mistakes done and have feedback
• Examine side views
• .. and maybe have a better presentation!
