How Lighting can Bring a Bridge to Life

As a design office specialising in both bridge design and outdoor lighting, we know from experience what good lighting can do for a bridge and its surroundings. Our lecture will focus on several real-life projects where adding light has played an important role in transforming a bridge into an experience. As these projects will also show, lighting design can serve different purposes:

• Providing functional lighting to ensure safety

• Enhancing the bridge’s appearance / Creating a specific night-time atmosphere

• Telling the story behind the bridge and/or its location

Among the examples shown will be the Hovenring, the hovering roundabout bicycle and pedestrian bridge in Eindhoven, where we have created a well-functioning and spectacular lighting design without a single light pole and a railway, pedestrian and wildlife bridge with illuminated railing that portrays images of the site’s history as well as local wildlife.
