As designer with Imero Fiorentino Associates, NY, NY, (S. Murray, 1980-82), collaborated on the exterior architectural and landscape lighting for the "World Showcase", a permanent world's fair comprising one half of the Epcot Center.
Lighting for each of the original nine international pavilions featured the traditional architectural details and landscape specimens of that country. Executed design drawings, details and fixture schedules, and co-supervised the site installation and focus of 5,000 fixtures, all hidden from view. A major design advancement was acknowledging that at previous parks, the street lights were too glary, so we redesigned them to hide the main downlight in the fixtures' caps, with a dimmer lamp showing in the traditional lantern place. Disney also allowed us to hide facade accent lighting in any structure, enabling a truly theatrical lighting treatment to all pavilion views.
Won the Lumen Award, Illuminating Engineering Society, New York, New York.
client/architect: Show Lighting, Walt Disney Imagineering, Glendale, California.
