1. Concept and Design Gewiss believes that design represents the strategic arm for the future. However, the design concept is expanded by surpassing the mere aesthetic dimension: for GEWISS, design defines the identity of the product and must be viewed as a process to combine the needs of the market and the characteristics that the product must have to best meet these needs. The success of the company lies in its ability to transform brilliant design ideas into products denoted by superior functional and aesthetic qualities. The originality and innovation of the ideas are supported by a...

CONCEPT AND DESIGN THE CONCEPT IS THE SUPREME MOMENT IN WHICH THE DESIGN COMES TO LIGHT. IT IS THE INSTANCE WHEN AN IDEA BECOMES A POSSIBILITY AND POSSIBILITY TURNS INTO A SHAPE OR GEOMETRY. THE DESIGN IS THE LONG JOURNEY FROM THE CONCEPT TO THE DESIGN, FROM DEVELOPMENT TO PRODUCTION Brochure STREET_URBAN_EN.indd 6 30/03/12 09:39

2. Light technologies The technology is a "discussion on the technique” namely, a solid understanding of the "expertise". The technique involves working on and in reality, the conversion of natural resources into simple and complicated instruments. Technology is the bridge between knowing and doing, between discovery and innovation, between innovation and market. To translate a discovery into an innovation, you need to translate knowledge into action and viceversa: the experience and know-how accrued by GEWISS in its more than twenty years of history take shape in products and solutions...

White light sources: LED Research into LED is developing steadily: they will be the light sources of the future. The advantages of solid state lighting (SSL): • energy savings and environmental sustainability: these light sources allow energy savings with a resulting lower production of carbon dioxide (CO2). Furthermore, LED lights do not contain mercury and their components are easy to dispose of. • heat developed: the heat produced by LED is lower than the heat from discharge lamps and it is transmitted via conduction; this means that the light emitted does not contain infrared radiation...

White light sources: CosmoPolis Cosmopolis 20 YEAR LIFESPAN Lifespan of 80 000 hours DALI Dual direction communication protocol Cosmopolis represents the latest evolution in ceramic metal halides lamps, characterised by a new burner design and extremely precise fixing thanks to the PGZ12 lampholder. The advantages of Cosmopolis light sources • dimensions: they are 50% smaller than existing sodium vapour lamps. This makes it possible to design high bays featuring compact overall dimensions which can be inserted into very small sized custom devices. • energy efficiency; the recent...
