VALOA design Oy: Valometsä

Valometsä (translation: Light Forest) by VALOA design stands situated in the center of a roundabout in Kankaanpää. The work depicts a pine forest, characteristic to its surrounding Satakunta landscape.

The fixed lighting installation consists of steel structures placed in the center of the roundabout and warmly spotlit. The main principles of the piece have been transparency and preventing drive-through. The structures made of Corten steel form a visually impressive whole while maintaining a visual connection to the different parts of the junction. A similar structure has been used in the pole lighting of street areas, combined with lamps equipped with street optics.
