Light Channels

Category: Architectural Detailing ; Electronic/Technology

"Light Channels" by San Antonio artist Bill FitzGibbons utilizes LED lighting systems to create slowly-changing color patterns onto surrounding columns and sidewalks. In addition to lighting, the project includes nine aluminum-capped sculptural columns at both bridge entrances, creating a "colonnade" effect. Sidewalks and rip-rap were repaired and concrete columns were cleaned and painted a sky-blue color. This project demonstrated how public art connects our community, sparks revitalization, and provides functional and dynamic solutions which enliven our built-environment.The project transforms highly-traveled but blighted areas into passages that encourage pedestrian activity and promotes revitalization east of downtown San Antonio.

The skylight casts a rainbow of colors into the garage’s interior and draws patrons to move through the streams of bright light. Additionally, high-tech light fixtures that flicker and flash coinciding with soothing, rhythmic sounds fill the garage to welcome and guide customers to Terminal
