AIA Design Citation Award (2010)
Custom single- and multiple-lantern chandeliers feature beautiful color rendering and bright ambient lighting performance.
DCAK-MSA Architecture’s design for Our Lady Star of the Sea was one of soaring lines and bright ambient light. The custom lighting revolved around a tapered four-sided lantern design with single and multiple lantern chandeliers. The church’s signature star decorates the side panels of each fixture. To maximize lighting performance, DCAK-MSA specified a powerful lamping package for each pendant. Compact fluorescent body lamping combines with AR111 uplights and spotlights, a favorite of lighting designers for its beautiful color rendering and performance.
