In detail

In 2011, the Société Dauphinoise pour l'Habitat (SDH) de l'Isère renovated its façade. The building has thus regained its true place in the hyper-center of Echirolle.

The Arcane architectural firm led the project, which consisted of a redesign of the structure covering the building's façade. We, L'Agencelumière, designed and realized all the lighting part.

This lighting work has enabled it to regain a real presence in the city at night and to see its architectural structure enhanced by the revelation of its color shades.

Indeed, thin multicolored steel strips were put in place. The new lighting, made up exclusively of LED mini-glasses, highlighted this new structure by modeling all the variations in hues.
A computer program allowing to create lighting scenarios was created to make the building live and "vibrate" at night.
