Entry Description

A pair of seashells during the day, Sun and Moon at night—the lighting design of Zhuhai Grand Theater illuminates the city landmark with a bold and skillful approach by transforming the two different-sized theaters into glittering celestial bodies and festive seashells.
Having adopted exterior floodlighting, wall grazing, a 5000k color temperature and an RGB lighting system, the design not only creates a grandiose scene but also manifests the texture of the buildings. To cope with typhoon attacks, all luminaires are installed at the optimal location to ensure the project's sustainability.
