For the theater, we developed modern systems for general and stage lighting with a focus on energy efficiency and aesthetics. The installed fixtures not only provide brightness and even illumination but also enhance the atmosphere, accentuating the beauty of the interiors and amplifying the emotional impact of the performances. Special attention was given to integrating advanced technologies into the historical space without compromising its authenticity.
The result is a harmonious lighting system that meets all the demands of a modern theater. The lighting of the Helikon-Opera Theater successfully creates a comfortable environment for both the audience and performers while preserving the artistic expressiveness of every corner of this architectural masterpiece. We are delighted to have been part of this significant and large-scale project, which demonstrates the power of light as a tool of art.
