ABOUT: In 2019, the municipal sub-plan for Stavanger City Center was adopted. The plan contains strategic planning measures for urban development. Stavanger municipality defined 5 goals for the city’s lighting in the future. These are:

• Attractive experiences
• Increased security and accessibility
• Increased orientation in the urban landscape Smart maintenance and operation
• Environmentally conscious solutions

Based on these criteria, Zenisk has designed a new strategic lighting plan for Stavanger city center.

The process has included extensive user participation in the form of workshops, night walks, presentations and discussions

along the way.

LIGHT: The city’s distinctive character and characters are strengthened with light through consideration of four identity markers in Stavanger.

These are (1) Breiavatnet, (2) the wooden house development, (3) Hermetikkbyen which is in rapid transformation and development, and (4) Vågen with Sjøhusrekken and the seafront.

All have specific characteristics with their very own radiance that can be amplified in the light concept. The concept will take care of and reinforce what is special about each place and emphasize the unique.
