With its strong medium-sized company sector, Germany holds a great advantage in global competition. This sector is one of the main pillars of the German economy, characterised by companies such as GREINER GmbH. The worldwide specialist in seats and recliners relies on the lighting solutions of LTS.

Pleidelsheim near Ludwigsburg has been the home of GREINER GmbH for 90 years. The new construction of their corporate headquarters is particularly impressive. The company, f m b architekten, went for honest materials, such as visible concrete combined with a clear design language.

 

The architectural concept follows the principles of the timeless Classic Modern and is further highlighted by the sophisticated lighting concept.

Linear lighting solutions were included in prominent positions, which follow and accentuate certain elements, such as stairs or handrails. From the very beginning, the designers were looking for light lines that could be flexibly installed, and which could be adapted to the particular requirements of the architecture. The Lichtkanal 030 from LTS fulfils all the given demands with its different and customised lengths.

In addition, the round, frameless lighting elements of the LTS Trimless line create a comfortable and basic illumination that does not draw the eye in any particular direction, making the offices and showrooms appear more spacious. The architects have limited themselves to only a few types of luminaires - they form recurring elements over all four floors and lend a certain succinct sense of clarity.
