 Lebanon-based architect George Chidiac of George Henri Chidiac Architects has designed yummy Waterlemon Juice bars in Kuwait, Bahrain and Lebanon. When he created the all-white curved Waterlemon in a Beirut shopping mall, he approached Beirut-based PSLAB for the development of custom lighting for the tight space that has no natural light.  At the time, PSLAB was experimenting with cold-cathode lighting tubes and so the lighting concept for Waterlemon ended up utilizing them. The concept was inspired by the curve shape and involves strip lights of varying length depending on the intensity and type of light needed. Each slit houses linear cold cathode and custom directional projectors equipped with GU4 lamps. The lighting concept — by principal lighting designer Dimitri Saddi with Rana Haddad and Pascal Hachem — won the International Association of Lighting Designers’ Award of Merit. By Tuija Seipell |
