The annual Fête des Lumieres in Lyon has grown to become a significant urban lighting event. An important part of the 2015 celebrations was a new lighting design for the municipal library.

Lighting designers Guillaume Jeol and Atelier Roland Jeol worked with Pharos partner Soliled to light the building
-
A Pharos LPC 4 was used to give the library a specific identity through the use of custom and sustainable lighting
-
386m of LED linear luminaires, 123 fluorescent tubes and LED fixtures are controlled wirelessly to enable activation by photocells to automatically turn on when darkness falls, with a resulting 80% increase in efficiency levels
-
All fixtures are totally integrated into the building’s structure and facades, and no fixtures are directed towards the sky to prevent lighting pollution
