Renovation of two of Lyon’s emblematic squares. This site, set in a dense urban context, will present an intimate luminous atmosphere, consistent and in adequacy with the surrounding lighting. The aim is to create a soothing and reassuring lighting atmosphere, in a space that drains large flows in soft mode. As an accompaniment to the stroll of users, this lighting will mark the pathways and leave the green spaces in a subtle darkness. Playing with light and shade will allow a nocturnal reading of the key elements, namely the architectural setting of the square, including the Town Hall and the Opera House, as well as the statues and water features punctuating the site.
