The Guangzhou Baosteel Building, serving as Baosteel Group’s South China headquarters, stands prominently in the core of Guangzhou’s Pazhou International Financial City, boasting a total floor area of approximately 100,000 square meters and a height of 200 meters. This project, characterized by modernist architecture integrating smart technology and green environmental concepts, was completed and put into operation in 2015, earning the prestigious China Construction Engineering Luban Award (National Quality Engineering Award), symbolizing excellence in China’s construction industry. As a leader in lighting solutions, Hongyu Lighting, with its Class A Lighting Design and Class I Lighting Engineering Construction qualifications, provided comprehensive light environment services for the Guangzhou Baosteel Building, illuminating the iconic structure’s brilliant future. This project not only marks a milestone for Baosteel Group but also exemplifies Hongyu Lighting’s prowess in high-end commercial architectural lighting.
Project Highlights: Hongyu Lighting’s Innovative Light ArtThe Guangzhou Baosteel Building project emphasizes “low-carbon, intelligent, and artistic” design, with Hongyu Lighting as a key partner deeply integrating scientific research, planning, design, and engineering services to ensure seamless fusion of light environments with architecture. The Luban Award evaluation committee highly praised the project’s exquisite craftsmanship, meticulous details, and technological innovations, crediting Hongyu Lighting’s contributions:
- Facade Landscape Lighting: Employing patented LED dynamic light sources to create a “Steel Glow” theme, the nighttime light show simulates Baosteel’s industrial pulse, enhancing architectural visibility. The system supports remote smart control, achieving 40% energy savings, perfectly aligning with low-carbon economy principles.
- Interior Functional Lighting: Designing layered smart lighting for office spaces, conference halls, and exhibition areas, incorporating human-sensing and natural light simulation technologies to improve space utilization by 30%. The Luban Award specifically commended its high-quality service guarantees and scientific project management mechanisms.
- Green Technology Integration: Introducing low-carbon materials and IoT lighting modules for zero light pollution, aiding the building’s LEED Gold certification. Hongyu Lighting’s professional team managed the project over 18 months, from concept design to final acceptance, ensuring award-winning quality.
These innovations stem from Hongyu Lighting’s vision as an “Advocate of Light Art and Culture,” embodying its philosophy of “innovation-driven development.”Hongyu Lighting’s Professional BackboneFounded in 2001, Hongyu Lighting operates Guangdong Hongyu Lighting Engineering Construction Co., Ltd. and Guangdong Ruibai Light Environment Design Institute, having successfully delivered over 30 national landmark projects such as the Canton Tower and Guangzhou CTF Finance Centre.
