Stella Noctis
juillet 2025
Hello, Compared to the photos I see online from 2015, there has been enormous progress in terms of lighting efficiency. Well done and thank you. Nevertheless, efforts and reflection on the needs for light and darkness should continue, focusing on lighting only downwards (where it's likely needed) and not excessively. We could hope that the Grégoire André workshop, with whom you are working on the renovation, will support you and help you remain within the law (or even better), but you must remain vigilant because, for other restorations they have managed, the exterior lighting they prescribed is illegal. Light temperature and intensity should be adjusted to preserve biodiversity and the starry sky. And above all, no more lighting in the middle of the night (or only with a motion detector) and no more directing light upwards. I wish you continued success.
