Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to reflect on the role of electric lighting design in urban regeneration processes. The landscape of the modern city is the result of an accumulation of the various physical, economic, social and cultural layers over the centuries. Urban lighting may be described as one of the physical layers which due recent developments in the technology of efficient light sources overcomes a major evolution. With an entrance of pixel light into the urban texture the perception of public lighting keeps changing. Public lighting not only provides visibility and safety but also helps to create an experience of an urban place. Its role is growing especially in context of regeneration processes which takes place within contemporary Polish cites. During this study objectives of public lighting and regeneration processes are listed and compared. A detailed analysis of lighting design stages and regenerations plans phases are carried out on chosen examples. The results indicating new implementation channels are tested during the workshop with Gdansk Osowa and Wrzeszcz residents via the questionnaire and concept design meetings. The results indicate a need for further case-related studies.
