Casa Pellanda
Contemporary light in a historical context
Casa Cavalier Pellanda, a refined 16th-century Renaissance building located in Biasca (Canton Ticino), is an excellent example of the balance between enhancing the historical heritage and introducing contemporary lighting technologies.
The conservative restoration, supervised by Meyer Piattini Architectstransformed the residence into a museum and exhibition space, preserving the architectural value and integrating technical solutions in accordance with modern museum standards.
In this highly constrained context, the lighting design by Lucespazio - Michela Bonzi and Jörg Frank Seemann ensured a discreet, precise and modulable light, capable of rapidly adapting to temporary exhibitions and different works on display, while fully respecting the historical surfaces.
