60 Penhallow Street, Exterior

Situated in the heart of downtown Portsmouth, 60 Penhallow Street features a vibrant exterior design that blends modern functionality with a rich historical narrative. Drawing inspiration from Portsmouth's maritime heritage, the facade reinterprets boat-building traditions, using timber techniques and artisan copper smithing. This thoughtful approach imbues the building with local character, while its carefully orchestrated lighting highlights these architectural details, adding depth and ambiance to the structure’s exterior.

Transparent elements at key intersections promote pedestrian connections both within the building and to surrounding landmarks and public spaces. The lighting installations strategically emphasize these features, guiding visitors and enhancing the experience of the building’s dynamic exterior.

Sustainability is also a core aspect of the design, with energy-efficient elements that contribute to the overall environmental impact reduction. The innovative use of lighting not only enhances the aesthetic of the facade but also aligns with the project's commitment to energy modeling and carbon reduction efforts.
