THECAMP
Aix-en-Provence, France
thecamp is a new European campus located in Aix-en-Provence,
France, and dedicated to innovation, emerging technologies and the
smart cities of the future.
The campus was designed by the architectural practice Corinne
Vezzoni & Associés, while the lighting was designed by lighting
design studio 8’18’’. It consists of a huge white canopy that takes its
inspiration from the tents used by nomads and extends over thirteen
buildings made of concrete and curved glass. The site’s purpose is to
prototype solutions and incubate start-ups.
Siri 3.0 projectors outline the canopy’s oval outer perimeter; with
their white finish, they integrate perfectly into the architectural
structure. Neva 1.0 outdoor LED linear profiles, 316 mm long, and
Pivot 1.6 projectors, in a customized white finish, are installed
around the internal circumference of the canopy’s three central fora
and direct their light onto the circular flowerbeds that sit below each
of the openings in the canopy. In the outdoor theatre space, Lira 1.0
step lights with asymmetrical optics have been used to highlight the
central part of the space and pick out the steps in front of the stage.
Finally, Plin 2.1 bollards with diffuse asymmetrical optics were
chosen to light the walkway beside the natural swimming pool.
Their head is tilted at 90° to guarantee a controlled downward light
emission with no dispersion.
