iGuzzini contributed by making available the best technical solutions for achieving the aims set by promoter and designers. The project brought several challenges which iGuzzini had to handle after rigorous comparison of the performance of its luminaires: from increasing lighting levels to more even lighting of the huge sufeaces of the Cathedral.

From improved colour rendering to, last but not least, the requirement not to add new installation points, therefore using existing ones, by replacing existing luminaires. To underline the magnificent facades of the Florentine architecture of the Cathedral, bell tower and baptistery, Maxiwoody floodlights were selected, whilist for the squares and pedestrian areas, Delphi wall-mounted, luminaires were used with energy saving lamps.
