The Arrival of White LED Lighting for General Illumination Retrofitting Boston s Marriott Custom House Tower In 2008, Boston s first official skyscraper, the Marriott Custom House Tower, shown here

Formerly lit by incandescent-based fixtures that had fallen into disrepair, the tower was restored using energy-efficient, low-maintenance white LED fixtures from Philips.

3 The Arrival of White LED Lighting for General Illumination Retrofitting Boston s Marriott Custom House Tower In 2008, Boston s first official skyscraper, the Marriott Custom House Tower, shown here and on the cover, underwent a long-awaited lighting redesign that restores its prominence on the Boston skyline in a smart and sustainable way. Formerly lit by incandescent-based fixtures that had fallen into disrepair, the tower was restored using energy-efficient, low-maintenance white LED fixtures from Philips. A combination of 125 and ew Graze Powercore fixtures now fully illuminate the tower from the 17th floor to the peak. Photography: John Brandon Miller Photography Cost-Effective, Energy-Efficient, and Easy to Maintain Not only do the LED fixtures in the installation consume just one third the energy of the previous incandescent sources, the LED sources that they use have a projected useful life of more than 20 years at six hours of use per day, requiring far less maintenance. By incorporating proprietary Powercore technology to directly accept line voltage, the fixtures eliminate the special cabling and external low-voltage power supplies that LED light fixtures have historically required. Because they use standard wiring and power sources, the lighting designers were able to easily replace the former incandescent light fixtures one-for-one in their existing locations and mountings. Lighting Design: Lam Partners Photography: Brad Koerner New Possibilities for White LED Lighting The efficiency and long source life of ew Blast Powercore and other Philips white LED fixtures open up new possibilities for sustainable architectural lighting. As the Custom House Tower installation shows, in dramatic and elegant fashion, white LED lighting has arrived as a viable, energy-efficient alternative for general illumination. Product Guide 3
