Illumination of the Vatican Museums

Energy savings within the Vatican Museums on an exhibition area of 710 square meters

The installation is located in the restored Gallery in the new wing within the Vatican Museums. Base on the customer requirements, the design of the lighting system started by try-out tests which took place on site.

The requirements were double types:

1) indirect illumination of the gallery by directional reflectors placed on the ledges focused on the vaults/dome;

2) indirect illumination of niches containing works of art.

These requirements were completed with the need to illuminate the central area, specific niches and side vaults in case of special events.
