The Bahrain Circuit becomes the 'beacon' of motor sport

More than eight million Led, in a custom-made design, illuminate the facade of the iconic building of the Bahrain Circuit, headquarters of the Formula Grand Prix 1.

StandardVision has completed the installation that has been carried out in the iconic Bahrain Circuit in Sakhir, becoming a benchmark for motor sport. This ten-storey circular building, current headquarters of the Bahrain Grand Prix formula 1, has been wrapped up with more than 8.000.000 Custom Led. This new form of architecture provides near-instant racing content and statistics from all angles, which makes it the most modern of its kind.

Working closely with Woodroffe Bassett Design, StandardVision partnered with Spectrum Lighting in Dubai to provide a turnkey solution. With the challenge of creating a facade of 360 Degrees, architecturally integrated spanning seven floors, StandardVision designed and manufactured seven Led panels direct-view customized and with a length adapted to the geometry of each floor. Its thin vertical dimension allows a gradual decrease in the height of the screen, accentuating the tower's structure while maintaining perfect lines of sight for audiences on the upper floors.

Under each ring have been mounted linear grazers video-controlled of custom lengths, creating a bespoke extension of the led panels above with reflected lighting. A centralized DC power supply system provides efficiency, performance and integration required for Led rings.

Architectural lighting has also been added to rooftop canopies and several key areas

To control the more than 4.000 linear meters of direct view lighting technology of the building, StandardVision has implemented its custom content management system platform SVRunner, that allows dynamic programming and integration with live event show control.

The resulting project is a vivid celebration of the world's motor sport, that takes advantage of the public space and activates the iconic entertainment venue.
