Antonio Lopez has been interested in the global K-culture craze for the past few years. He was particularly fascinated by the unique culture and art and chose it as a tourist destination.
As he toured around Seoul, Antonio was deeply impressed by Korea's aesthetic sense that respects modernity and tradition.
One day, he was walking through a district of Seoul and discovered a considerable mural adorned with beautiful mural tiles.
The mural harmoniously encapsulated various historical elements and future-oriented images, and the LED lighting changed colors according to the time, making the mural even more prominent. Antonio stopped before the mural and was captivated by the artwork for a long time.
He strongly desired to introduce such landscapes to the European city where he lives.
Antonio spoke with various local officials and inquired about the company that produced these excellent mural lighting tiles. Through many conversations, he eventually discovered LumiSpace, the company that completed this project.
Lumispace was a company known for its lighting technology, which accurately reproduces the colors of art pieces by printing on high-end ceramic tiles. Antonio became confident that he had found the partner he was looking for.
After returning from Seoul, Antonio immediately contacted LumiSpace and started a project using mural lighting tiles and LED lights.
He wanted to reproduce the texture and durability of the wall tiles in Seoul, which impressed him. Through collaboration with Lumispace, the work of printing digitalized art pieces onto ceramic tiles using high-resolution scans began.
Each tile contained a part of the artwork, so a giant mural was completed when the tiles were gathered.
The location where the mural tiles were installed was the wall at the entrance of a downtown park frequented by residents. After the mural tiles were installed, the next step was to make the mural stand out even more through LED lighting.
The LED lighting was designed to change color according to the time of day and weather. In the evening, the tile mural was bathed in a warm yellow light, providing comfort to the residents, and during festivals, it changed to various colors, creating a lively atmosphere.
This project was successful in many ways.
Creating a visually outstanding landscape with mural tiles and LED lighting through works directly participated in and selected by local residents enhanced the area's brand value.
It also had a positive impact on the activation of the commercial area around the park. Many people visited this new attraction, leading to an increase in sales for local merchants.
The residents' response was very positive.
"I can't believe our city can become so beautiful." "I started going for walks more often to see the changing lights at night." Many residents praised the new scenery. Other regions also requested similar projects.
This project proved to be a successful example of creating the aesthetic and economic value of the local community by producing the winning work of a competition, such as mural tiles and designing the landscape with LED lighting.
Especially based on LumiSpace's emphasis on the texture and durability of mural tiles, they achieved enduring beauty that would not change over time.
This success story will be a good example that can be benchmarked in other regions.
The mural tiles and LED lighting illuminated the city's beauty brightly in European cities, and the project that revitalized the city through a joint competition with local artists and residents set a new standard.
