Author: SSLighting Design News Staff

February 19, 2010... Anolis ArchSource Outdoor 36 RGB lighting fixtures were installed in a 'winter garden' feature in the atrium at the newly refurbished and re-opened College Lucie Aubrac in Dunkerque, France. The College Lucie Aubrac is one of the country's first Haute Qualité Environnementale (High Quality Environmental) colleges. Anolis points out that HQE is the standard for green building in France. It is based on the principles of sustainable development first set out at the 1992 Earth Summit. The standard is controlled by the Paris based Association pour la Haute Qualité Environnementale.

The garden was an integral part of architect Wallyn Sézille Eurl's vision for the re-build and lighting. According to Anolis the lighting enables the space to be enjoyed after dark in addition to bringing an exciting new dynamic to the space. LEDs were naturally chosen for all the energy saving and environmentally friendly properties such as low power and maintenance requirements and long lamp life. The college also wanted a good quality LED which emitted very smooth colours. The sleek, homogenized output of the Anolis lightsource was perfect for the job. Electrical contractors SET Space Tertiare specified Anolis. They have used Anolis products on many previous projects, and they like their reliability and robust engineering. Anolis News Release
