Exclusive lighting installation for Ferrari & Maserati in Sion

For nearly 30 years, Garage Zénith has been synonymous with sporty elegance and top-class automobiles. Through the renovation and expansion of its dealership in Sion (Switzerland), the company aimed to create a brand environment that visually accentuates the luxury and exclusivity of Ferrari and Maserati. In collaboration with the architecture firm Fortebis Group and electrical planners Bäbler & Pirker, Zumtobel developed a high-quality lighting concept that harmonises design, functionality, and emotions.

Interplay of illuminated ceilings and accent spotlights to present sports cars

A balanced interplay of diffuse and accentuated light was created to present the sports cars in the best way possible. Particularly impressive: ten custom-made illuminated ceilings with backlit TECTON Tetris light strips and CARDAN 1000 spotlights create a brilliant atmosphere. This combination emphasises vehicle shapes, materials, and colours — perfectly attuned to the premium brand image and the requirements of an elegant customer presentation.

Bright showroom with black and yellow sports cars, a large luminaire as a lighting solution provides uniform, glare-free illumination and highlights the vehicles.

High-quality Zumtobel products for showrooms and offices

High-performance Zumtobel luminaires like TECTON, LINARIA, SLOTLIGHT II, MICROS, and CARDAN 1000 were used. They don't just skillfully showcase the vehicles, but also create an exclusive and inviting lighting atmosphere in sales and conference rooms. The clear light distribution, energy efficiency, and streamlined design of the products significantly enhance brand impact and customer well-being.

Technology meets efficiency – a tailor-made solution with a system

In addition to the impressive design, energy efficiency was also a focus: The KMX/DALI control system allows for individual lighting moods and targeted dimming, achieving up to 30% energy savings. The custom-made luminous ceilings and niche lighting illustrate how technical precision, brand identity, and sustainability seamlessly integrate within a project.
Car showroom with black, red, and yellow sports cars, large-area ceiling lights as a lighting solution provide brilliant and uniform illumination of the vehicles.

"The light ceilings backlit with TECTON and strategically placed spotlights create a unique play of light that effectively highlights the dynamism and elegance of our vehicles."
