Using lighting to express the flow and tranquility of water, the stability and solidity of mountains, and the overlapping, misty intentions of Hangzhou oil-paper umbrellas. Strengthening the sense of mass of the glass box structure, enhancing the simplicity of the folded surface structure, forming unique aesthetic characteristics. The lighting at the chamfered corners adds a sense of uniqueness and focal points, enriching the layers.

Firstly, the brightness is broken down into three levels to ensure that the lighting in different areas achieves the desired effect. The top crown of the building towers, the main entrance, and the facades facing the Ring Road are at the first brightness level, providing significant visual appeal; the commercial podiums and the facades facing Zhongshan North Road are at the second brightness level, creating a comfortable and pleasant commercial lighting environment; the inner corridors and rooftop gardens, as the third brightness level, create tranquil and private leisure spaces.

The choice of color temperature is primarily 3000K for a warm and comfortable atmosphere in the commercial environment; 4000K is used to accentuate the suspended glass boxes; and colored lighting is appropriately used at the main entrance to add a lively atmosphere.

The lighting design of the podiums embodies a rhythmic design approach through repeated layers of lighting, using static lighting to create a dynamic sense of rhythm. The secondary-reflected light is soft yet maintains the backbone of the lines, like the misty light shining through stacked oil-paper umbrellas. The entrance plaza uses guiding lighting design to increase visual depth, maintain transparency, highlight the true attraction of commerce, and guide foot traffic into the commercial interior.

The facade lighting of the tower is primarily functional, avoiding overly flashy media facade effects, highlighting the architectural aesthetic features with simple yet powerful lines, and indicating its function as office space, emphasizing professionalism and calmness.
