Architectural lighting brings industrial building to life as part of City of Montreal rejuvenation project

Valeco Energie Québec Inc. is a renewable energy development company found on the edge of Frédérick-Back park in Montreal. Recently, the area has seen significant aesthetic investment from the City of Montreal to make it more appealing for residents both by day and night. As part of the City’s rejuvenation efforts, Biomont was approached with an architectural façade lighting design. The proposed design featured lighting from above of the building’s vertical blue channels with white light, partnered with a wash of blue light for the north-face (park-side) of the facility’s flare.

New wiring was installed to power 15 compact architectural LED flood lights on the building’s north, south, and west sides. A 5000K colour temperature was chosen to accentuate the blue channels and a very narrow, 5-degree lens was used to reduce the light spill from inside the channel onto the building’s corrugated siding. Underground wiring and 2 new concrete bases were installed and fitted with blue architectural LED flood lights to light up the flare. The 13 remaining functional fixtures on the façade were replaced with LED wall packs, also in 5000K, to maintain colour consistency throughout.

Lighting: a key consideration at new Karrelex headquarters

Karrelex is a concrete repair specialist located in Blainville, Quebec. When developing a new sector of the industrial park where Karrelex had held headquarters for the last twenty years, the city called Daniel Bélair, President of Karrelex, to see if he’d be interested in moving. The proposed location was an undeveloped area on Rue Legault, a two-minute drive from Karrelex’s current home. Working with DMA Architects, Bélair brought together a team of professionals to design a premium, engaging facility for the future Karrelex home. Karrelex first contacted Concept Illumination, a Montreal-based LED lighting provider, requesting they review the exterior lighting.
