Prince Mahidol Hall has installed a Lasvit-designed light sculpture that responds to music
Mahidol University’s Prince Mahidol Hall has installed a glass lighting sculpture designed by Lasvit, a glass and lighting design company based in the Czech Republic.

The sculpture was designed in collaboration with A49, the architecture firm who designed Prince Mahidol Hall, and uses state-of-the-art LED technology designed to welcome visitors with variable lighting.

The sculpture, entitled Neurons, was designed to respond to music played in the concert hall with varied light sequences and colours, turning rhythms and melodies into visual experiences.

Its composition is harmonious within the rules of symmetry, despite its loose and seemingly random appearance, and was designed as a visual counterpart to the inner conventions of music.

It uses advanced LED light bulbs inside hand-made artistic glass components to create an illusion of movement that brings the installation to life.

Lasvit designer Jana Ruzi?ková said: “The design is directly inspired by the motto of the Mahidol University - the Wisdom of the Land. Our goal was to deliver a timeless design that would fit into the building’s contemporary Thai architecture.”

The building’s ribbed-beam structure is a conceptual interpretation of the human skeleton, Lasvit’s reference of neurons and the sensory experience links the sculpture to the aesthetic of the building.

Richard Ralphs, principal of Pre-College and Boarding at Mahidol University, said: “We’ve worked very closely with Lasvit to create this stunning feature that puts the brain, the spirit and the light into the hall of the university.”
