Mallorca gets lighting facelift

The technology of the present projects the treasures of the past

Mallorca, one of the Balearic Islands off the east coast of Spain is a favourite destination for many holidaymakers. Every evening, as the night draws, Thorn products ensure that buildings and thoroughfares throughout the capital, Palma, are seen in the right light. At the magnificent 14th-century Gothic cathedral, La Seu, light from Contrast floodlights makes the best of the golden sandstone exterior.

The surrounding area is softly lit with S500 lanterns while in the nearby Parc de les Estacions, which joins the older with the more modern parts of the city, Thorn's local agent, Salamanc Albertí, has used Avenue lanterns with 150W HPS lamps to light the way.

Visitors who head for the beach promenade can enjoy extended leisure hours thanks to a mix of pole mounted Decostreet lanterns and Contrast floodlights. Like the islands themselves each amenity lantern has a different style and distinct character.
