Sur­ro­un­ded by imp­res­sive white cliffs, Dieppe is the oldest seaside resort in France. The lively port town on the Eng­lish chan­nel is loca­ted in the Nor­mandy region. At a dis­tance of around 200 km Dieppe is the nearest beach to Paris.

Henri IV dock is a place in Dieppe that is highly fre­qu­en­ted by both locals and tourists. Many events take place at the dock during the year, meaning a lot of people pass thro­ugh it, which is why moder­ni­za­tion of its street ligh­ting forms part of an upg­rade pro­cess that takes aest­he­tics, eco­nomy and sus­ta­ina­bi­lity into acco­unt. To ensure the safety of users and com­fort during the eve­ning, ligh­ting that can be adap­ted for each pur­pose has been rede­ve­lo­ped on the dock: warm and soft for pedest­ri­ans, and more func­ti­onal for road­ways.

In order to pre­serve the har­mony and beauty of the town, Somb­reo lumi­na­ires have been chosen. Ins­pi­red by the aest­he­tics of lan­terns han­ging from a mast, as on a ship’s deck, Somb­reo acts as a dis­tinc­tive eye-catc­her in Dieppe.

Thanks to LED tech­no­logy, the ligh­ting is fully cont­rol­lable in order to reduce energy con­sump­tion and main­te­nance cost, in par­ti­cu­lar by set­ting up a dim­ming system accor­ding to the hours and peri­ods of the year.

  • The Sombreo family is especially suited to creating an urban atmosphere. Inspired by the style of living room lamp shades, the luminaires in this family are available in two sizes – Sombreo 230 and 300. The Sombreo is available as a single or twin configuration with cast aluminium arms, wall-mounted and as a catenary luminaire. Optimised light technology makes for maximum visual comfort and enables ultra-efficient lighting schemes that conform to international standards for a wide range of environments.
