- Application
- Architecture & Glass Facade
- Format
- XLC Perde Serisi
- Environment
- Museum entrance, night viewing
- Site type
- Cultural building entrance
- Suggested viewing
- 25–80 m from the public plaza
- Service route
- Rear access from the facade maintenance walkway
The challenge
The museum wanted a night-time art surface without covering the stone facade or turning the entrance into an advertising screen. Conservation and planning constraints ruled out a solid cabinet wall.
Why this format
The curtain was selected over mesh and solid cabinet because the open strips could follow the existing facade rhythm, leaving most of the stone visible in daylight.

The approach
- Mapped the strip layout to the facade bays and entrance canopy.
- Set the content brief around slow gradients, particle fields and artist-led sequences.
- Coordinated power and data zones with the facade maintenance route.
Result
The entrance reads as architecture by day and as a light curtain at night. The stone and glass remain visible between the strips.
Integration plan
The physical interface between the screen, the building and the service route decides how the installation performs after handover.
- Strip supports fixed to secondary rails behind the stone joints.
- Power and data split into zones for maintenance and partial operation.
- Night-time brightness limited at the facade controller.
Content and operation
A screen is only as useful as its daily routine. Content rhythm, brightness and spare parts are agreed before the first playlist goes live.
- Artwork playlist curated with the museum, not advertising.
- Idle scene returns the facade to a quiet state.
- Spare strips and driver sections held by batch.
What this study shows
Curtain screens suit cultural facades when the surface must stay present.
Content should be commissioned for the strip grid.
Night brightness limits belong in the art brief.
Installation notes
The mounting and service route were agreed before the screen layout was fixed.
XLC Perde Serisi specifications- Hang from standard truss or a top rail; panels connect with fast locks without tools
- Curve the strips into arcs, circles or waves before final tensioning
- Use the waterproof head and tail connectors for outdoor positions
- Label strips and driver sections by show or facade zone
