A collaboration between Hjørring Municipality, VUC & HF Nordjylland, and Hjørring Private Realskole has now resulted in a beautiful new stadium with an associated sports center - one of Denmark's most sustainable of its kind.
LED lights up both outside and inside.
The old stadium in Hjørring was worn out and dilapidated and not very inviting, especially for out-of-town clubs that came to play at the stadium.
A collaboration between Hjørring Municipality, VUC & HF Nordjylland, and Hjørring Private Realskole has now resulted in a beautiful new stadium with an associated sports center – one of Denmark's most sustainable of its kind. It was important with such a large (and expensive) construction project that sustainability and energy savings were paramount.
LITE A/S, in collaboration with electrical installer Erik Lytzen, has been responsible for all energy-saving lighting for Femhøje Sports Center.
The first thing you encounter outside the sports center is LITE A/S's park lamps, HERA, and bollards called Flat Top - these beautifully illuminate outdoor walkways, so that you can safely walk outside, while the light highlights the beautiful architectural building.
When you step inside, you experience the lounge area with high ceilings. Here, the BADO pendant lights up as an additional architectural decoration in the room. BADO provides optimal light distribution and prevents glare. BADO is also available as a surface-mounted lamp (BADO SURFACE) – these are installed in the lounge and canteen area with low ceilings and provide a soft light for dining guests and the employees in the sports center.
Inside all corridors, FLOW Downlight is installed, built into the ceiling. FLOW Downlight provides a pleasant, frosted light without glare. FLOW has won the Product Design Award 2012, among other things.
The sports center has several meeting/teaching/conference rooms – all are fitted with PANEL LIGHT B 60x60, which provides pleasant light. The panels also provide a greater spatial effect, as the panel lies flat with the ceiling. The panel is dimmable and installed with daylight control, so the light inside is adjusted to the light outside. In addition to this control providing a better experience inside, there is also a noticeable saving in energy consumption.
Likewise, PANEL LIGHT B 60x60 has been installed in the changing rooms as a surface-mounted lamp.
In the toilets, it has been chosen to do a little extra with the lighting than usual. The wall lamp, WING, which has a simple and minimalist design decorates the raw and rustic wall. The possibility of adjusting the light beam from narrow to wide both at the top and bottom makes the lamp very decorative, and gives the wall a beautiful lighting effect.
The large halls in the sports center were fitted with SPORTS luminaires and with a burn time of 50,000 hours, this represents a significant energy saving. There are also savings on the operating budget, as the luminaires do not require maintenance.
With SPORTS Luminaires, the courts appear with the best light quality – and with a clear white color (4000K). This pleasant light is beneficial for athletes, who are not dazzled, and the various markings on the court are more visible than before. The Sports Luminaire turns on immediately and does not "flicker" like regular fluorescent tubes do, so both athletes and spectators feel more comfortable in the hall with this lighting. The SPORTS Luminaire is dimmable in 3-5 activity levels.
The grandstand outside is illuminated by RGB WALL WASHER, mounted on the wall just below the ceiling construction; these provide an incredibly beautiful lighting effect. The light can change color to red, green and blue, making it possible to illuminate the entire ceiling of the grandstand.
The ALPHA SERIES Ceiling Light is mounted on the overhang of the grandstand ceiling, providing a beautiful white light that does not dazzle the spectators. With the new innovative lighting design from LITE A/S, Femhøje Sports Center has one of the most sustainable sports centers in Denmark. There are major savings by using LED lighting, and Hjørring Municipality has achieved major savings on energy consumption and thus the operating budget.
With its new beautiful buildings, Femhøje Sports Center has become an even bigger focal point for schoolchildren, students and athletes.
