VML-Technologies has installed a huge LED screen, measuring 19 x 14m, and situated approximately 80m above ground, in the façade of the Strijkijzer building in the Dutch city of The Hague.
Designed and manufactured by VML-Technologies BV, the display can be viewed up to 2km away, and is used as a community information board, featuring a mix of local news, information, events and advertising.
It is also planned to give the local people the opportunity to interact with the display via social networking sites for such things as birthday greetings, including pictures and videos of the lucky person.
The installation consists of 1,716 LatticeTM S-14054L LED strips which cover an area of 11 windows wide and 6 windows high.
Even though the system is 70 per cent transparent, so that the occupants of the building can still see outside, by day the display offers 6,000 nits of brightness.
When turned to black overnight, it becomes virtually invisible.
Using the VML Lattice “PictureBox Controller”, the LED strips are controlled in such a way that the whole picture is ‘pasted’ across the grid of window frames and remains perfectly visible.
VML-Technologies worked closely with the owners of the building, the Dutch housing trust Vestia, and also with the original architects of the building, AAArchitecten.
VML-Technologies were selected as the preferred supplier of the LED Media Facade system, following a two year selection process carried out by Ceres, the Vestia Projects office responsible for evaluating and choosing a suitable supplier for this important project.
Vestia and Ceres wanted a solution which would integrate seamlessly with the iconic glass and steel structure of the building façade, which spans over the interior of six floors from level 26 to level 31.
