Medienfassade, Installation artwork at Bayer headquarters, Leverkusen, Germany

The Medienfassade covered the entire facade of the Bayer building with 5.6 million LED lights across 17,500 square meters of steel mesh.

The installation was conceived in 2007 by Wolfram Lusche, Bayer AG's architect, after the company moved from this 122-meter-high building constructed in 1963.

The media facade displayed images and films from Bayer operations during daytime on 40-by-40-meter screens, while entire surface illuminated at night.

Technical issues with LED failures and required extensive improvements led to the decision of dismantling the installation in January 2011.

The structure combined green plastic coating with blue interior lighting to enhance image contrast through the steel mesh network.
