LED facades in urbarchitecture

Abstract

Rapid development of electronic technologies at the beginning of this century resulted in intensive changes in urbarchitectonic formation of façade planes and physical structures. Advent of LED lights and LED panels made possible that the physical structures in urban agglomerations worldwide, old or new, have opened a new chapter for strategic urbarchitectonic design and different cultural illumination diversity of houses in space. The user relationship towards activities in physical environment, exterior and interior has been changed, and new visual-esthetic living style has been established, a new and more dynamic form of social communication behavior towards the identity of a place and total evaluation of environment characteristics. A new orientation in ivisual and functional creation of urbarchitectonic forms was born, in redefining of a concept of culture of walls, culture of house facades and in general of facade planes, whose life is active not only during daytime by around the clock.
