The Tide, Greenwich Peninsula - London
B LIGHT lights up London's first linear park London / 2019
0
Conceived as a ‘destination for art, design, and well-being’, The Tide is London‘s first elevated linear park and runs alongside the river Thames.
The park is located on the Greenwich Peninsula and is freely accessible to all as a space intended for running, walking, and meditation. Visitors can enjoy incredible views from the park, thanks to its location and the height of the structure.
The first kilometer of the structure has been opened to the public in July. Once completed, the structure will be 5 kilometer long and it will bring “an unrivalled outdoor experience in the city” as Kerri Sibson, director of the Greenwich Peninsula, defines it.
B LIGHT‘s in-ground fixtures MEROPE 100 and MEROPE 140 AD have been used to light the supporting structure and the trees. Both fixtures have been supplied with a honeycomb filter to ensure visual comfort and reduce glare to the minimum.
The vegetation of the park is enhanced by MAIA, thanks to its precise aiming and adjustability.
