Özdilekpark Istanbul

A shopping centre committed to a greener future

Özdilekpark, a prominent shopping and lifestyle destination in Istanbul, has taken significant steps to enhance its sustainability profile. As part of its efforts to reduce environmental impact and promote energy efficiency, it partnered with ELCO to transform its lighting infrastructure, showing how modern lighting technology can achieve both sustainability and a better visual environment.

ELCO’s role at Özdilekpark

ELCO upgraded both the exterior and the interior lighting of Özdilekpark with solutions that blend aesthetics with energy efficiency:

• Exterior illumination: advanced wall washers now play a central role in Özdilekpark’s vibrant promotional displays, with flexible lighting that adapts to events and themes and creates an evolving visual experience.
• Interior transformation: in 2021 our collaboration continued with high-performance downlights and elegant cove lighting, selected to enhance the mall’s ambiance while significantly reducing energy consumption.

Overcoming challenges with advanced lighting techniques

The project presented unique challenges, including balanced light distribution and glare. ELCO’s expertise was key to overcoming them:

• Asymmetric lighting: the exterior installations, including large LED displays, required precise management of asymmetric light traces and bursts. Baffling and luminaire shielding directed the light and minimised spill onto adjacent surfaces, and optical lenses created specific beam angles.
• Optimising the interior: the glass roof and the placement of downlights and cove lighting risked uneven light distribution. Fixtures with tailored beam angles, carefully positioned, achieve optimal illuminance throughout the space.
• Glare control and UGR analysis: visitor comfort came first. Unified Glare Rating (UGR) analysis, fixture repositioning, glare control lenses and indirect lighting reduce direct glare.

Pioneering sustainable lighting

The collaboration between Özdilekpark and ELCO shows how energy-efficient LEDs and advanced lighting design can raise both visual appeal and sustainability. We are proud to contribute to projects like this that illuminate a brighter, more sustainable future.
