How to illuminate a historic square?

A public square is not only a meeting place for citizens but also a comfort zone to disconnect from the chaos and stop in peace to walk, read on a bench and spend hours of relaxation.

It is very important that these areas are always properly illuminated even in the darkest hours so that they can always be safe and protected from vandalism, but also so that those who frequent them can easily see the paths and obstacles, moving better. If we talk about a historical square, the artificial light also has the important task of highlighting the peculiarities of the area, the fountains, monuments and architecture that decorate it.

A very effective solution is the LED lighting, practical, versatile and environmentally friendly solution that can accentuate and enhance every element with a very high color rendering and an important energy savings.

The importance of lighting in a historic square

When we talk about historical squares we refer to those particular, beautiful and suggestive places, witnesses of a distant past and able to transmit beauty at first glance.

The historic square is full of wonderful details such as buildings, fountains, statues, various architectural elements and much more. These elements certainly need to be preserved and enhanced and also in this aspect the lighting for the squares plays a very important role through the use of LEDs. In addition to benefiting from natural daylight, in fact, it is the artificial light that is hidden when the sun goes down, to give majesty and make each element suggestive.

The different materials react differently and it is the light, through the various games of light and shadow, to create effects and can be considered a real architectural material whose design must be studied well to create the right night scenery.

Why choose led light

The LEDs are increasingly popular for lighting for public areas because they really allow you to range between many color temperatures, also are available in different types of lamps depending on the various areas in which they will be used. With an autonomy of about 30 years with minimal maintenance, LED technology can illuminate historic squares giving back a faithful image of reality, or giving exciting and suggestive dances of colors.

Each solution is however very efficient and a good advice is to opt for large fixtures in order to illuminate the most impressive elements such as large buildings and monuments. Obviously there are also options suitable for small details, for example light points to be set in the ground or underwater, in case of a fountain.

Many possibilities then choosing the last frontier of lighting, that is the LEDs, also available with RGB device to change color and excite passers-by.
