The concept of transparency and spatial flow was the main idea of Maki & Associates for the new office building on the Novartis Campus in Basel. A continuous, flexible working space has been created where all ceilings are sloped at different angles and all office floors are interlinked by double height spaces. To stress the open and flowing character, the main lighting objective was to indirectly highlight the ceiling surfaces and to illuminate the building whilst retaining the ceiling untouched. Specially designed luminaires for the open office have been designed to achieve the target of a softly uplit space.
