RGB Facade Lighting
Our company was chosen for the luminaire production, project design and commissioning activities of the Facade LED Lighting system planned to create an innovative and interactive light show on the Tea Tower. For the Tea Tower, the DomePie series, which is one of the most preferred “RGB Pixel LED” type products in Exterior LED Lighting, was used. This product group, also called DOT Led, provides flexible mounting on building facades.
Due to the fact that the building is quite high and located right next to the sea, it receives a lot of strong wind. At the end of the negotiations with our project team and the contractor company, it was decided to put the fixtures inside the aluminum profiles. In this way, both the luminaires will be protected from destructive climatic effects. And the daytime visibility of the building will not be impaired.
The aluminum profiles, on which the fixtures are mounted, are drilled at 20cm intervals using precision CNC machining.

RGB Facade Lighting
12500 DomePie RGB pixel LED luminaires, 6 8-port ArtNET DMX512 controllers and power supplies are used in the RGB Lighting system on the tower. With this structure in the form of a 3D Video Wall, unforgettable visual shows are made for everyone who goes to Rize.
Flexibility
RGB DomePie luminaires embedded in the aluminum facade joinery surround the building with an uninterrupted light line. In this way, the architectural form of the building has become dynamic by emphasizing it.
ArtNET DMX512
A total of 6 OPUS 8 Art-NET DMX converters were used to control 12500 DomePie fixtures on the tower. Thanks to the X2 speed option of our OPUS series controllers, 340 pixels instead of 170 pixels are controlled from an output channel at 30 fps. In this way, the control cost is halved.
With the ArtNET DMX512 standard, 348,000 RGB pixels can be controlled. OPUS series ArtNET DMX controllers are easily used in all professional systems with their wide output port option.
OPUS Series Art-NET DMX controllers were preferred for the control of point pixel products on the Tea Tower. OPUS Series Art-NET DMX controllers, of which all embedded software, mechanical design and hardware design are made by our engineers, are the first and only domestic production control device of Turkey with these features.
The delivery of the project was completed by our commissioning team by giving the user trainings, which is the last stage, to the relevant team before the delivery of the project.
Thanks to the control infrastructure and control software of the project, which we completed in 2022, all the contents seen on the computer screen are transferred to the façade fixtures in real time. In this way, ease of use has been maximized. The user can change the facade images at any time, write on the facade on special days, create flag videos, in short, he can use the entire screen as he wishes.
With the Rize Tea Bazaar Project, to provide more effective promotion of Turkish Tea, to provide tasting and sale of tea products with different characteristics and quality norms to consumer groups, to improve the marketing capacities of tea enterprises and to increase the number of domestic and foreign tourists visiting our city accordingly. It is aimed to increase the revenues generated.
In line with this goal, the Tea Tower in the form of a thin-waisted tea glass, which is the most impressive structure in the project, has become interactive with the LED system. With the special digital content we specially designed for the tower, the effect of filling the glass with tea has been applied. This content is made by our design team with Blender Physics Engine.
Our Wash and Wox series luminaire groups were also preferred for the fixed colored lighting fixtures used in the project. Body colors were chosen in accordance with the project needs, ensuring that the architectural aesthetics are not deteriorated.
