How can an urban district be revitalized by upgrading its exterior lighting? This was the question Cannes City Council asked themselves with the goal of making the district of La Bocca in the heart of the city attractive for visitors and locals again. Now the light of the Olivio luminaires too in this newly illuminated district not only provide security and well-being but attractiveness too.
For uniform illumination of the various public areas in the district such as squares, boulevards, alleys or shopping streets, the city of Cannes opted for Floracion poles of different heights, fitted with Olivio luminaires. This has resulted in efficient and impressive lighting that is ideal for all the different lighting tasks. The multi-functionality of the Olivio luminaire family has meant cameras for video surveillance, loudspeakers, brackets for advertising banners or even gobo projectors can be integrated into the poles.

Olivio system poles of different heights have been erected in district of La Bocca. The planners exploited the versatility of this luminaire family with regards to the positions of the luminaire heads and colour combinations for luminaire, pole and inlay, with luminaire heads arranged individually around the pole – in accordance with the lighting concept. As a result, unique luminaire configurations have been created that ensure attractive accents are set by night in this urban environment. By day too, the Olivio luminaires harmoniously blend into their surroundings in this urban space like reserved sculptures.
