LED Lighting used in interior of Feather Weight House developed by Nick Gelpi

North Seattle, LED Company SolidApollo.com teams up with MIT by donating state of art LED Lighting Solutions used to illuminate the interior of futuristic feather-weight house. The free standing house designed by Nick Gelpi, is created by flexing two dimensions into three with the interior illuminated by flexible LED light strips.

Solid Apollo provider of LED lighting solutions is happy to announce their involvement with MIT in the building of their futuristic feather-weight house. Solid Apollo a long time supporter of innovative design in the world of architecture and building has plenty of experience assisting companies with their lighting needs.

“ We are big believers in pushing the boundaries in the world of architecture and lighting solutions. Manuel Barquin President of Solid Apollo said. “We have been working with companies for years offering them cutting edge LED lighting solutions. Here was a great opportunity to put our money where our mouth is by donating the LED Strip Lights used in the feather-weight house built by MIT.”

MIT architect Nick Gelpi has designed a freestanding pavilion, created by flexing two dimensions into three. The house is created by cutting patterns into flat sheets of plywood which when “pushed” into position similar to old fashion pop up books, is transformed into a three dimensional house complete with skylights, columns, buttresses, windows and vents.

Once the house is raised the lightweight interior walls will be illuminated by attaching flexible LED Light Strips onto the interior of each sheet of plywood.

The final structure which reminds one of an open ended Quonset hut is neither bullet proof nor expensive to build, instead it is a demonstration of what can be done with a simple piece of plywood and well thought out planning. “We’re glad to have been chosen to play a minor role in this exciting project” states Barquin.

Solid Apollo Launches Dynamic White LED Lighting Strips with Dynamic 3000° – 6000°K adjustable color temperature.

North Seattle LED Company SolidApollo.com launches Dynamic White LED strips with adjustable color temperature, which will enable Architects, Interior Designers, and retail furniture manufacturers, to control and adjust color temperatures dynamically on their lighting projects.

Fully Adjustable Super Warm White to White LED Strip Light

Solid Apollo has just introduced 2 new Dynamic White LED Lighting Strips, which will enable Architects, lighting designers, and also contractors to increase their creativity and flexibility in their designs while creating state of the art LED linear lighting installations.

Some of the biggest obstacles that lighting designers, contractors and architects encounter when developing linear lighting solutions, are achieving the correct color temperature on their installations, and being able to change dynamically the color temperature on the go.

Basically until now the solution was to use a single color temperature led lighting strip, hoping to have a good color rendering. Nevertheless, in some kinds of installations that require constant change of lighting, like museums, jewelry stores displays and architectural environments, using just one color temperature not always does the job.

Solid Apollo’s Dynamic LED lighting Strips use 2 different color temperature LED Chips, with a color temperature range that goes from 3000 to 6000ºK. Using the available Dynamic White controller, the user can adjust the brightness of each set of LEDs, thus dynamically creating the exact color temperature required for that particular project.

According to Manuel Barquin, CEO of Solid Apollo: “The idea is very simple: by using 2 color temperature LED Chips in the same flexible circuit board, you are able to adjust with total precision the brightness levels of both LED chip channels. Therefore with just one product you have the power to adapt the color temperature for multiple uses, creating completely new lighting settings.

This opens a whole new world of possibilities for installations, in particular those that involve product displays like jewelry stores, museums, retail stores and seasonal displays, as most products displayed undergo constant rotation.

In the jewelry business for example, gold and diamonds don’t shine well under the same lighting conditions. Diamonds need a higher color temperature, around 5000Kº, where as Gold prefers lower color temperatures. With Solid Apollo’s Dynamic LED lighting Strips the lighting temperature can be changed in a snap”

Solid Apollo offers 2 Dynamic White LED Strip Light models:

  •     44W 16 Foot Spools with 300 Epistar 3528 LED chips, (150 LEDs @ 3000ºK and 150 LEDs at 6000ºK.
  •     72W 16 Foot Spools with 300 Epistar 5050 LED chips, (150 LEDs @ 3000ºK and 150 LEDs at 6000ºK.
LEDWizard Dynamic White LED Controller

The control system for these Dynamic White LED strips is done through a 2 channel Dynamic White wireless controller, which is able to handle up to 144W of LED strips. Also Solid Apollo offers 2 channel manual controllers that enable users to fine-tune the color temperature with great precision.

At the same time, Solid Apollo offers a wide selection of LED strips for other applications that range from 24W to 72W per unit, as well as many different colors and light temperatures, which enables any customer, to achieve exactly what their installation requires.

Solid Apollo´s engineering team is also developing new products that will tackle many of the typical obstacles that linear lighting faces. Solid Apollo is committed to offer solutions to any of the most common problems in LED Lighting that other competitors seem to ignore.

According to Manuel Barquin CEO of SolidApollo.com “ We are currently designing a high end LED Light Strip that will be able to work directly at 110V AC, therefore avoiding the necessity to use drivers and signal amplifiers. This product is very interesting as users will be able to install 300 feet run of this product needing only one connection to any standard electrical socket. This product will be the perfect solution for anyone involved in long run installations”.

New LED channels from Solid Apollo

Flexible LED Channel

Flexible LED Channel

Solid Apollo has just introduced 6 different aluminum extrusion profiles, which will enable architects, lighting designers, and contractors to

increase their creativity and flexibility in their designs while creating state of the art LED linear lighting installations.

One of the biggest problems that lighting designers, contractors and architects have when developing linear lighting solutions is to create clean, bright and functional systems, which should deliver light in a smooth and continuous way.

Basically the only solution until now has been to use LED Light Strips, Neon or LED linear fixtures to create the effect. Nevertheless by using only LED strip, neon or LED Fixtures, installations normally are not clean mainly because of all the cabling involved and it’s impossibility to create long distance lighting without having light gaps, shadows, or cabling showing everywhere.

Another big issue with linear LED lighting has been that in order to avoid glares or discomfort, LED products have to be directed or installed away from the view of the public, thus reducing substantially the installation possibilities.

According to Manuel Barquin, CEO of SolidApollo states, “The idea is very simple; we provide linear high grade aluminum extrusions where any kind of Linear LED lighting can be installed, for example LED Strip or linear led lighting. The led strip is placed inside the profile, and is covered by a semi clear PVC click on cover. The semi clear click on cover filters the light and creates a seamless linear light output. There are really no limitations to length or brightness levels one can achieve.”

There are several competitive advantages on these LED Strip Channels which can accommodate various LED lighting sources, and can be personalized easily to any length.

Clear Corner LED Strip Profile

Clear Corner LED Strip Profile

Some of the profiles from Solid Apollo are quite interesting, as they offer the possibility to be installed in a recessed format, like the Mini 15 and Mini 7 recessed profiles. They offer a clear competitive advantage and they can be installed flushed on floors, walls, drywall, and wood under cabinets or any place where linear lighting is needed.

Another profile from SolidApollo is their “Corner” profile, which is basically a triangular aluminum profile, which is easily placed in any corner where wall and ceiling meet, thus creating a light output in a 45º angle, which is specially interesting for companies who manufacture display casings, or who already has a jewelry or retail business.

The rest of the profiles from Solid Apollo can be installed directly on facades, wall, buildings, outdoor places, restaurants, hotels etc. Many of the profiles offer the possibility to include a clear finish click on covering or a semi frosted finish. Also some of the profiles are specifically designed to be installed in floor, therefore they include high grade PVC covering that can be walked over.

At the same time, Solid Apollo offers a wide selection of LED strips for this application that range from 24W to 72W per unit, as well as many different colors and light temperatures, which enables any customer, to personalize their profile to their exact specifications.

According to Manuel Barquin CEO of SolidApollo.com, “We are currently designing a high end LED Light Strip that will be able to work directly at 110V AC, therefore avoiding the necessity to use drivers and signal amplifiers. This product is very interesting as users will be able to install 150 feet of this product with just one connection to any electrical socket. This product is the perfect solution for anybody involved in long run installations.”
