Hotel Puerta Santander, Santander Spain
From silence to expression: light as an emotional language
At the gateway to the city of Santander, Hotel Puerta Santander emerges as a new reference for how light can transform architecture into a sensory experience. In collaboration with Ilu Proyectos, we developed a lighting intervention that highlights the character of the building, bringing it a new visual dimension.
A façade that comes to life at dusk
The architectural lighting unfolds with balance, respecting the hotel's formal sobriety while enhancing its linear geometry. The building’s lines are dressed in light that flows between neutral tones, warm shades, and dynamic color accents transforming the structure into a living skin.
Flexible technology for an immersive experience
Through our DMX digital control service, the lighting adapts in real-time, turning the hotel into a visually active organism. We implemented SmartLedFlex RGBW Pixel, our flexible linear lighting solution with pixel-level control, capable of generating smooth transitions between neutral and warm tones to more expressive chromatic nuances. This color versatility redefines the architectural perception without altering its geometry or materials, creating a dynamic and fluid presence.
An intervention that fuses technology and emotion, transforming Hotel Puerta Santander into a powerful example of how light can redefine space.
