New building Chris Sports, Eschlikon
Intelligent lighting and shading control across 21,260 m²

Impressive project size
With a total area of around 21,260 m² - the volume of 126 detached houses - and over 150 rooms, the new Chris Sport building stands for state-of-the-art building technology at the highest level.
The goal was clear: efficiency, comfort and an overview, intelligently networked via the modular TWILINE system.
💡 Lighting & shading - perfectly coordinated
The entire lighting and shading control system was fully automated and integrated into the central TWILINE architecture.
This ensures that the ideal lighting and shading situation is achieved in every zone - energy-efficient, convenient and tailored to requirements.
Integrated areas:
Corridors and passageways
Event and seminar rooms
Offices and training rooms
Canteen and terrace
Parking and outdoor areas
Pallet and storage areas
Over 1,500 DALI luminaires and more than 100 presence detectors ensure zone-by-zone, needs-based control - with optimum light distribution and minimal energy consumption.
⚙️ Technology that thinks for itself - orchestrated by TWILINE
At the heart of the system are four TWILINE control units that intelligently link lighting, shading and outdoor facilities.
In addition, there are over 40 TWILINE DALI gateways that ensure communication with the more than 1,500 luminaires - modular, reliable and perfectly scalable.
Functional highlights:
Daylight-dependent lighting with integrated passage lighting
Data-based control logic: presence and light sensors supply values to the control center, which automatically triggers switching and dimming processes
Individual parameter adjustment for brightness, run-on times and timers - simple, location-independent and directly via the web visualization
Outdoor lighting via twilight sensor (weather station) in combination with timer
History recording & visualization for operation, optimization and maximum transparency
🌤️ Comfort & control in balance
Whether bright daylight in the office, subdued light in the seminar room or automatic outdoor lighting at dusk - the system responds precisely to lighting conditions, usage and weather conditions.
This creates an environment that intelligently combines comfort, security and energy efficiency.
The result:
Greater comfort thanks to intelligent automation
Reduced energy consumption thanks to demand-based control
Full control and transparency - at any time, from anywhere
🧠 Conclusion
The new Chris Sport building impressively demonstrates how TWILINE building automation combines energy efficiency, convenience and user-friendliness.
Four control panels, over 40 DALI gateways, more than 1,500 luminaires and over 100 sensors - perfectly orchestrated into a system that is both technically impressive and a delight to use on a daily basis.
TWILINE - Intelligent building automation for an energy-efficient and sustainable future.
