Valoa design Oy: Virontörmä residential area light murals

The project consists of art and environmental lighting in the large residential area of Virontörmä, Tampere. A major part of the project has been the communal process in which the designers brought in the views of the residents by highlighting important themes the residents had stated in a survey. A workshop was held for the residents and also kids from the local kindergarten participated and got to draw and paint. Lighting designers created compositions from these workshop materials. These light murals which are projected to the gables of the apartments communicate the spirit of the neighborhood and local identity. In this project, the happiness and the joy of making things together are highlighted.
