To highlight the architectural elements of the former monastery, the lighting project focused on the main portico, the
secondary portico, and the central statue in the cloister. Lights shine on the main portico to emphasize the vaults,
creating a soft and indirect light that make the space pleasant to use as a passage between classrooms or as a quiet
place to gather in the evening. The goal was to make the space both functional and inviting, creating a warm and
welcoming atmosphere.
The second type of path is pedestrian-only and runs alongside the green areas and building perimeters. A softer and
more constant lighting approach was chosen to light these paths. A small bollard fixture was selected to blend into
the surroundings, emphasizing the light’s effect on the path. The light functions like a blade, making these areas easily
recognizable, even at a quick glance.
