PALACE OF VERSAILLES – Royal Garden

Lighting design of the Royal Garden…

Following the elaboration of the  “guide plan of the landscape and architectural lighting design of the Royal garden and the Palace” undertaken by LEA, the implementation includes the lighting of the Great Lawn, the Water Parterre, the Green Carpet and the Latona’s and Apollo’s Fountains. To reveal this landscape and this grandiose nature, we relied on what makes the essence of the place: the play of water in the fountains and basins; on what makes the mythological spirit of the place: the illuminating clarity of the statuary and the vases; on the nature of the garden itself: the landscape scenography, its vegetal and floral qualities, and finally on the monumental architecture of the Palace.
