It's a renovation of a hall built soon after the war (1952). We designed lightings for the façade, the roof terrace, and the famous statue in the adjacent public park. We used only LEDs for energy conservation. The façade is glass-walled; we unified the interior light colors and made all lightings glare-less from the street. In the roof terrace, we used mainly footlights to emphasize the statue. We obtained permission from the local government to illuminate the statue. We determined the light fixture position, brightness and the light color for the statue in cooperation with a professor of sculpture.
