In detail
The sensitive and attractive illumination of the facade aims to enhance the internal activity of the boiler room by magnifying its physical attributes and respecting the architectural intentions.
As an extension of the internal work of the wood biomass, the exterior facade is driven by graphic light projections, with warm tones (fire) and incandescent movements.
From a distance and through an openwork wooden cladding, the lighting -and through it the facade- seems to move, at night, to the rhythm of the boiler room and slides on the material, detaching it, redrawing it...
The lighting has also been designed to allow a quick reading of the lighting proposal from the highway that runs alongside it.
