BASILICA OF ST. JOSAPHAT
IES Illumination Award of Merit
The entry to this historic site was gloomy and unsafe,
illuminated only by streetlight. Photo-realistic renderings
confirmed the lighting equipment, their location and the
aesthetic composition, and helped the Basilica to raise funds.
The design strategy was for the custom period-style lanterns
to appear as the source for all illumination. Graze fixtures
sculpt the details above the doors to reinforce that strategy.
Stair treads are lit by linear LEDs hidden at the Portico ceiling,
aimed forward for contrast, with louvers to reduce brightness.
Bell Tower fixtures have a unique spray distribution that
fills each arch, positioned forward to softly glow on tower
facades. The Statue & Crosses are lit with narrow spots
from inside towers to reinforce the glow from within,
utilizing linear lenses to sculpt each statue’s details.
