The primary pedestrian walk through the new outdoor Art Garden at the Wichita Art Museum will be graced with a new custom bollard that I designed. Five individual LED luminaires are located asymmetrically in the wood body. Each luminaire has a unique mounting angle and optical assembly that collectively illuminate the linear path adjacent to the bollard. With interest of enhancing a personal garden experience, the modest form, unique aperture pattern and wood material of the new bollard offer a refreshing departure from conventional luminaires that have a more technical aesthetic. The attached images are of the first full assembly viewed at the manufacturer along with the initial concept sketch. Site installation will be complete in September.
