The OptiMine® Showroom, located in Tampere, Finland, serves as Sandvik’s demo space where lighting plays a crucial role. The integrated lighting design, crafted by White Night Lighting, allows the showroom to transform from a pleasantly lit auditorium to a contrasting stage or a fully dimmed, cinema-like environment. AICCI was tasked with creating the implementation plan and manufacturing the fixed shelving and Sandvik signage.
In addition to the lighting, it was essential to ensure the shelves could support the weight of the OptiMine® products, which are heavy despite their compact size. The dynamically adjustable lighting for various scenes was achieved using Casambi lighting control. This allows the lighting of each shelf and its circular background to be adjusted independently. The project was completed in 2019, and the OptiMine® display furniture later received an award in the Sandvik Group innovation competition.
