Ca’ d’Oro Wins 2024 Casambi Project of the Year Award

In a celebration of heritage, innovation, and meticulous design, the Giorgio Franchetti Gallery at the Ca’ d’Oro in Venice, Italy, received the 2024 Casambi Project of the Year award. Spearheaded by restoration architect Giulia Passante and brought to life by lighting designer Alberto Pasetti Bombardella with ERCO, the project revived the iconic facade of the 15th-century patrician palace through careful historical restoration and cutting-edge lighting technology. The use of Casambi’s wireless control system provided flexibility for complex lighting scenes, overcoming historical and environmental constraints in Venice.

Giorgio Pierini and Fernando García commended the project for its impactful lighting elements, successfully balancing light and darkness while showcasing the architectural details of the Ca’ d’Oro.
