Abstract
Plan Lumiere is the title ofthe lighting masterplan for the city ofZurich. It will, in future, furnish the entire area of the Swiss city with anew lighting concept. Presently it is being put into practice in smaller sub-projects. One ofthese is the district ofAffoltern, located within the catchment area ofZurich. The former village Affoltern has lost some its character in recent years with the construction of new building developments. The light scheme helps in providing the area with anew identity by enhancing its public spaces with light.
