Forming an integral part of sustainable building design strategies, the Trilia OLED luminaire from Winona Lighting has been customised with a unique design for the embassy conference room. It will enable the embassy to achieve its stringent energy goals of using 38% less energy than other buildings of its type.

The Trilia OLED luminaire features modular units that allow single luminaires to be combined into distinctive, organic patterns. Emphasising on the slimness of the OLEDs, the Trilia OLED luminaire claims to deliver comfortable and uniform distribution of light, which is suitable for the size and height of one of the conference room spaces.

Designed to provide a distinct look to the interior, the OLED luminaires can be installed in various ways, which can provide accent or functional lighting that breaks away from rectangular grid layouts.

Installing these energy efficient lighting schemes, it will be the first embassy in the world to achieve LEED Platinum certification.

The Embassy unveiled its Innovation Center at a public grand opening ceremony on 26 February 2013. The Innovation Center houses the public offices of the US Embassy in Finland and showcases the latest in energy-efficient technologies.
