A light tunnel is one of the most attractive and popular urban lighting structures that is currently used in public spaces, parks, boulevards, shopping center entrances, events, and festivals. Light tunnels, with their creative designs, bring a magical and eye-catching appearance to the environment, attracting visitors and creating a different experience. In this article, we aim to introduce various types of light tunnels, the differences, features, applications, and benefits of each model. We will also guide you in choosing the best light tunnel for your projects or events.
The arched light tunnel is one of the most widely used models of tunnels. These tunnels create a complete and continuous covering with their fully arched structure, making them especially popular for pedestrian pathways, park entrances, and thematic festivals. The arched design allows visitors to feel immersed in a continuous light tunnel while passing through. Structurally, these tunnels can accommodate full-color strings, finger pixels, or various types of LED strings.
The Half Arch light tunnel, as implemented in the Alborz province project (Alborz Half Arch Tunnel), includes arch-shaped bases with an open upper section. This model has a lighter and more open design compared to the arched tunnel and is an ideal choice for paths requiring direct views of the sky or a mix of natural light. The advantage of this model lies in its reduced structure weight, ease of installation, and the possibility of long-term use.
The 90-degree light tunnel, or “angled tunnel”, as seen in the 90-Degree Light Tunnel of Alborz Province project, is designed as a pathway with a change in angle. The 90-degree tunnel not only adds beauty but also allows for the creation of different and engaging paths and is applicable in limited spaces or where special designs are needed. This project utilized smart full-color strings with various animation capabilities, which have a significant impact on attracting attention.
The square or rectangular light tunnel gives a modern and minimalistic appearance to the pathway. These tunnels are usually installed in modern spaces or those requiring geometric elements. The angular design and straight lines of this model add a sense of order and symmetry to the environment and can easily harmonize with urban architectural designs.
The heart light tunnel (Heart Tunnel) is one of the unique and distinguished models among various light tunnels that gives a different appearance to the environment with its unique design. This tunnel, with its iconic heart shape, conveys a sense of intimacy and tranquility to visitors and becomes a memorable urban element. In the project the Heart Tunnel of the Martyrs of Khorsand, this model has been well utilized to create an inviting pathway and strengthen the visual identity of the space. These tunnels are often installed at park entrances, pedestrian pathways, cultural areas, or places needing highlighting and increased visual appeal. The heart-shaped design encourages people to capture moments and share images, contributing to urban branding and increasing social interaction.
Light tunnels are one of the most impactful elements of urban lighting that play a key role in enhancing beauty, vitality, and dynamism in public spaces, in addition to providing illumination. These tunnels create an attractive and pleasant environment for citizens and visitors with impressive designs and the play of light and color. Passing through a light tunnel is a unique and memorable experience that boosts feelings of liveliness and cheerfulness in individuals. One of the most important advantages of light tunnels is providing extraordinary opportunities for photography and capturing special moments. These structures act as a hallmark and inspiring point in urban spaces, encouraging individuals to pause in these paths, take pictures, and share their images on social media. This feature enhances social interaction and increases the recognition of public spaces. In addition to aesthetic aspects, light tunnels play a significant role in transforming public environments into recreational and joyous spaces. The use of diverse lighting and color effects creates a safe and relaxing environment for walking, spending time, and enjoying cheerful moments with family and friends. These tunnels can become part of the visual identity of an area and solidify its place in the minds of citizens. Ultimately, light tunnels combine art, technology, and creative design to enhance urban quality of life and provide a new and unique experience in public spaces for people.
