Continuous light-transmitting concrete
Luccon represents a new breed of light-transmitting concrete. Unlike other versions that use acrylic rods or optical fibers, Luccon is comprised of translucent fabric cast layer by layer into fine-grained concrete in prefabricated molds. The result is a collection of fluid, organic lines captured within a sturdy panel.
Since the proportion of synthetic fibers to concrete is relatively low, and because the fibers have a small diameter, Luccon has the same strength and durability as conventional concrete. The virtually lossless light conduction allows light, shadows, and colors to project through the concrete with negligible degradation.
