The city Moulin is loca­ted in the foot­hills of the Massif Cen­tral, on the River Allier. The market square forms the heart of the town and is a tes­ti­mony to its rich his­to­ri­cal heri­tage, reflec­ting styles from various eras. T

he church spires of the Sacre Coeur”, a large well, the market hall and the Grand Café are par­ti­cu­larly defi­ning land­marks. The aim of the muni­ci­pal coun­cil was to make the public space more attrac­tive for resi­dents by restruc­tu­ring the square and the market hall. Shop­ping ame­ni­ties and open spaces have been newly cre­a­ted and the various sites i.e. road­ways, foot­pa­ths, shops needed to be clearly iden­ti­fia­ble. The design for the pede­stri­a­ni­zed area the­re­fore incor­po­ra­tes Selux Olivio Sis­tema lumi­nai­res.

HID lumi­nai­res are used for gene­ral ligh­ting while a dyna­mic effect is cre­a­ted on the foot­pa­ths using the RGBW LED ver­sion of the Olivio lumi­naire. Fol­lo­wing the restruc­tu­ring, the square has a much brigh­ter appe­a­rance and an unob­struc­ted view has been attai­ned. In the eve­nings, Olivio RGBW spot­lights can be modi­fied to cater for various types of events. Depen­ding on the number of par­ti­ci­pants and the time, light inten­sity and colour pro­jec­ti­ons can be used to dis­play a plethora of dif­fe­rent sce­na­rios desig­ned to pro­vide a back­ground for bust­ling life on the market square.

  • The organic design of Olivio and its functional versatility due to the modular design of this luminaire family is inspired by role models from nature. As a result Olivio forms the basis for light concepts in urban living areas where the focus is on the well-being of people. Olivio luminaire heads are available in the sizes Grande, Medio and Piccolo and can be combined with various arms and pole types from the three design lines Sistema, Floracion and Candelabra. Yet it is not just the design that can be adapted individually according to the situation – various optics and light colours from 2,700 to 4,000 Kelvin also cater for challenging lighting tasks efficiently and without glare: from illumination of paths and squares, floodlighting of façades and accent lighting of buildings. The new Olivio Cap also reduces light scatter and for special requirements, with its camera and loudspeaker modules, Olivio can be integrated into smart application scene. The special wooden-pole aesthetic emphasizes the Olivio's high quality, organic luminaire design. Combined with luminaire heads in a harmonoius colour tone such as bronze, this results in a timelessly comforting spatial ambience.
