A city built on the water.

Watch the closing.
Projection, fountains and fire on the canal — the festival’s final night.
Overview
A skyline made for light.
For the closing of Circle of Light 2016, a structure in the outline of a modern city — 52 metres high, 118 metres wide and 800 tonnes — was built on the rowing canal.
We created the mapping content for this purpose-built facade: the skyline turned into glass towers, a tropical beach, a pixel city and a stage for fountains and pyrotechnics, all reflected in the water in front of the audience.

Every chapter was built on a 1:1 model of the 118-metre structure — the black gaps are the real openings in the set.
