- Philips Lighting France were tasked with relighting the Caen City Hall façade
- The building was lit with new Philips RGBW PCK led (Graze, Burst, Blast)
- Control is via an LPC 2, using the generic RGBW 8 bit additive fixture
- The colour mixing, and particularly the white mixing, has been tuned to offer subtle, complementary shades of grey and white that are very close to the colour of the original concrete blocks
