The project is about light, of course, but also about sunsets, the setting sun and the blind walls of the buildings. The light sources below the facades cover the most important blind walls of Poblenou in orange sunlight, simulating nightfall during the clearest days in winter. To emphasize twilight and to dignify the uncompensated architectural scale of Poblenou, the same way it's done with monuments.

Blind walls: Bolivia 31, Pallars 150, Badajoz 84, Pujades 90 and 118, Ávila 71 and 82. A project created by Estudi Antoni Arola and produced by Poblenou Urban District
