Xu Wei Art Museum

Xu Wei

Xu Wei is a lighting design for an art museum in Shaoxing, a Chinese city with a history of 2,500 years. The museum stands within an old residential quarter, so the lighting is kept low-key and calm. L-shaped light troughs and linear wall washing fixtures are hidden on the facades to brighten the walls evenly. Faint light marks the bronze statue of the artist, and tree shadows fall along the corridor. The square is lit at a moderate level, and hidden projection allows different scenes for public cultural events.

Xu Wei Art Museum by LIGHTING DESIGN INSTITUTEof UAD has been featured as an exceptional representation of industrial design by the A' Design Award & Competition. Xu Wei Art Museum received the Golden A' Design Award in Lighting Products and Fixtures Design in 2022. The A' Lighting Products and Fixtures Design Award is an international, juried, academic and meritocratic design accolade which recognizes excellent design of chandeliers, pendant lights, wall sconces, table lamps, floor lamps, outdoor lights, recessed lights, track lights and more.
