The objective was to revive a previously uninviting space by turning it into a luminous, legible, and reassuring artistic environment, both day and night.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"row\"><div class=\"col-12 col-xl-10 offset-xl-1 paragraph\">\n<p>Isabelle Corten, lighting designer at Radiance 35, conceived a colourful and dynamic installation based on white and orange lighting rhythms that transform the perception of the space while integrating the existing graffiti into the artwork. This interplay of colours acts as a psychological distance reducer, creating an almost seaside-like atmosphere and giving a strong identity to this transitional urban space.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"row\"><div class=\"col-12 col-xl-10 offset-xl-1 paragraph\">\n<p>Awarded the 2017 ACEtyl\u00e8ne Prize (Small Budgets category) and a special mention from the Golden Rules of Brussels Urban Planning, this project demonstrates how, with limited resources, light can transform an ordinary place into a true sensory experience.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"image\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/00_5633_ARCHES_Jette-12-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1160\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/00_5633_ARCHES_Jette-12-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/00_5633_ARCHES_Jette-12-1320x881.jpg 1320w, https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/00_5633_ARCHES_Jette-12-990x661.jpg 990w, https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/00_5633_ARCHES_Jette-12-660x440.jpg 660w, https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/00_5633_ARCHES_Jette-12-450x300.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/00_5633_ARCHES_Jette-12-330x220.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/00_5633_ARCHES_Jette-12-680x454.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/00_5633_ARCHES_Jette-12-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/00_5633_ARCHES_Jette-12-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/00_5633_ARCHES_Jette-12-1900x1268.jpg 1900w, https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/00_5633_ARCHES_Jette-12-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/00_5633_ARCHES_Jette-12-365x244.jpg 365w, https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/00_5633_ARCHES_Jette-12-535x357.jpg 535w, https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/00_5633_ARCHES_Jette-12.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"row\"><div class=\"col-12 col-xl-10 offset-xl-1 paragraph\">\n<p><em>Lighting designer: Isabelle Corten \u2013 Radiance 35<br>Contracting authority: Sibelga<br>Photo Credits: \u00a9 Radiance 35<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1161,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":true,"inline_featured_image":false},"pdt-application":[],"location":[216],"project_offer":[253],"light-type":[256],"class_list":["post-3063","project","type-project","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","location-jette-belgium","project_offer-safety","light-type-wall-mounted"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project\/3063","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/project"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1161"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3063"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"pdt-application","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pdt-application?post=3063"},{"taxonomy":"location","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/location?post=3063"},{"taxonomy":"project_offer","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project_offer?post=3063"},{"taxonomy":"light-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lec.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/light-type?post=3063"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
