America Cup Pavilion in Valencia, Spain
In past decades a building was considered a landmark if they had a white spotlight on it. The memorials in Washington, D.C. were considered perfect 'light art'. Even today, our nation's capitol is a delight to tour at night. Paris developed a reputation as the 'City of Lights' and walking along its broad boulevards at night was a real treat. Then with the Chinese economic revolution lighting buildings with colors, art and graphics was taken to entire new level.
