Perfect lighting to create
the ideal shopping mood
The selection of lighting is indispensable to the creation of the right shopping mood, as you
will find in TaiKoo Hui’s delicate blending and matching of natural light and nightlight.
In TaiKoo Hui shopping mall, oval-shaped atriums spread out along the main isles of every
floor, rather like “patios” in traditional houses. As sun shines brightly through the glass roof of
the 3rd floor balcony garden, its heat is blocked by the heat-insulation coating on the glass
while only pure natural light is allowed in. Because people tend to follow natural light, this
design efficiently guides customers to the entrance of shops and aids the free movement of
shoppers.
As night falls, the lighting in TaiKoo Hui will create another atmosphere. While the
shopping mall is bright and lively in the daytime, it is gorgeously elegant at
night. Outside the main gate TaiKoo Hui logos are bathed in soft white light
presenting a unique appearance against the background of modern
high-rises. The three iconic glass cubes emit ever-changing colours
from a hidden source while within the building, wooden textured
walls are interspersed with unobtrusive purple lighting. LEDs are
distributed under the escalators, appearing from below to be like
stars in the sky.
The entire 120,000 sqm of TaiKoo Hui shopping mall is illuminated
by delicate mood lighting.

CAPTURE
TaiKoo Hui “Cowboy’s Night”
The TaiKoo Hui annual dinner party was held in the Shangri-la Hotel on 17 December 2010, and to
match the theme of “Cowboy’s Night”, TaiKoo Hui staff dressed like Wild West cowboys and cowgirls.
A fervent and frenzied atmosphere was created with a mix of games, lottery draws and a live talent
show! General Manager Mr. Peter Kok even played guitar to support his colleagues’ chorus, attracting
bursts of applause. The party reached its climax with an ardent Spanish bullfighting dance. Mr. Kok
then recalled the development of TaiKoo Hui and encouraged every colleague to keep up their effort,
with the imminent opening of business in TaiKoo Hui.
Care flows, Love Guangzhou
The TaiKoo Hui photography competition “Brand the New Guangzhou” has entered its final season,
