The streetlights on Paseo de la Concha are dressed up to make the most of their light. By utilizing existing public lighting resources and adding minimal equipment, we achieve festive lighting that is both environmentally and economically sustainable.
Thirty-one shells rest on the streetlights at the front of the promenade, creating a slightly orange light that inspires a special atmosphere in keeping with the city’s current nighttime image. We designed a reflector with a festive aesthetic that also redirects light toward the promenade, preventing light dispersion and light pollution into the sky.
