Illuminations & light structures

Make a town centre shine, transform a park.

Light tunnels, a giant truss-and-lycra star, totems, the Geometric Illusion, illuminated flowers, architectural LED tubes — Chronix designs, develops and installs bespoke illumination systems, built to last several seasons and to be reused from one year to the next.

Our catalogue

Six signature modules, endlessly combinable.

All our modules are designed in-house and can be combined: we assemble the composition that fits your site, your identity and your season.

Illuminations — Light tunnel

Light tunnel

Turns a corridor, an entrance, a town-centre walkway or a night-time trail into an initiatory passage. Adjustable in length (from 5 to 50 metres), RGB colours controlled over Artnet/DMX, programmable animations.

Signature case: LED light tunnel installed at the Abbaye de l'Épau, in partnership with Europe Évènements.

Adjustable 5-50 m RGB Artnet/DMX
Illuminations — Geometric Illusion

Geometric Illusion

Fifteen luminous triangles build a hypnotic perspective — a hybrid work, both spectacular and contemplative, made to be walked through as much as photographed.

Sound-synchronised show, encoded frame by frame. Designed for a festival, a public square, a suspended scenography.

15 triangles Sound-synchronised show Walk-through
Illuminations — Giant star

Giant star

A monumental star built on truss and dressed in lycra, lit from within: a landmark visible from a distance that marks a square, a site entrance or the start of a trail.

Fast to rig, demountable, reusable season after season.

Truss & lycra Artnet/DMX control Monumental landmark
Illuminations — Illuminated totems

Illuminated totems

Vertical totems to punctuate a trail, structure a square or give rhythm to an avenue. Set in a series, they create visual continuity from one end of a site to the other.

Controlled together or individually, indoors as well as outdoors.

Modular series Artnet/DMX control Indoor / outdoor
Illuminations — Illuminated flowers

Illuminated flowers

A poetic signature: light sculptures inspired by plant forms, placed on the ground or suspended. Highly photogenic, very Instagram, perfect for giving character to a park, an urban garden, a courtyard or a night-time trail.

Soft colours and programmable pulsing. An immediate effect on the general public, families especially.

Ground-standing or suspended Slow pulsing Photogenic format
Illuminations — LED tubes & geometries

LED tubes & geometries

Linear LED modules to dress a façade, draw a perspective, structure a ceiling or animate a trail. Combined into hexagons, parallel lines or complex geometries — the underlying visual grammar of our lighting scenography.

Synchronisable over Artnet/DMX with the rest of the installation (video, sound, other modules).

Case study

The light tunnel at theAbbaye de l'Épau.

Heritage site · In partnership with Europe Évènements

A medieval abbey, a trail of light.

In partnership with Europe Évènements, Chronix designed and installed an LED light tunnel within the grounds of the Abbaye de l'Épau. The brief: a night-time trail that enhances the medieval stone without overwhelming it, that guides visitors without scattering them, and that can be taken down without leaving a trace once the event is over.

Our contribution: scenographic design, production of the modules in our workshop (Saint-Quentin, France) with our partner craftspeople, on-site installation, programming of the lighting sequences, operation for the duration of the event, complete dismantling and storage ready for reuse.

Who it is for

Three use caseswe know well.

Municipal Christmas lights

Christmas markets, end-of-year festivities, illuminations for shopping streets. Bespoke design, or a mix with the stock you already own. Installation, operation, dismantling and storage ready for the following year. Typical case: Mairie de Levallois-Perret.

Night-time trails in parks and heritage sites

Theme park, abbey, château, botanical garden, night-time tourist trail. An approach that respects the place — cool or warm light depending on its character, no invasive fixings. Typical case: Abbaye de l'Épau.

Temporary event installations

Inauguration, festival, trade show, brand event. Short format (1 to 4 weeks), fast installation, careful dismantling. Can be combined with lighting scenography, video mapping and a sound and light show on the same site.

AGEC law: demountable, reusable, recyclable.

All our illumination modules are designed to be taken down without damage, stored and reused over several seasons, and recycled at the end of their life. Our current stock is still in service after more than 5 years of cumulative use. Low-energy LED lighting across ~95% of our equipment.

Frequently asked questions

What local authoritiesask us.

What types of local authority do you work with?

Municipalities, communities of communes, urban agglomerations, joint authorities, départements. Our entry threshold varies: we have worked with a municipality of a few thousand inhabitants (Le Pays des Sources) as well as with the town of Levallois-Perret in the Paris region. Size is not what matters — the ambition of the project is.

How does an order with a public buyer work?

Depending on the amount and the procedure, we respond to formal calls for tenders or work through negotiated contracts. We are registered on the official public procurement platforms and regularly monitor tenders matching our core business. Feel free to send us your tender documents (DCE) — we know how to respond in the expected format.

Can we buy or hire?

Both. For a one-off illumination (a single event, a town anniversary), hiring is more rational. For a recurring annual illumination (Christmas, local festivities), buying the equipment outright can make sense — you own the stock, and we remain your installation and maintenance provider from one year to the next. We adapt the quote to your choice.

How much electricity do LED illuminations use?

Very little. Our LED modules consume in the order of 10 to 50 times less than an equivalent incandescent installation. On long municipal projects (5 to 8 weeks), we systematically propose timed scenarios (switching off from midnight to 5am, for example) to reduce the footprint further. On request, we provide an energy assessment of the installation.

What is the production lead time for a Christmas order?

For delivery at the end of November or the beginning of December, the order should ideally be confirmed in June or July. Our modules are built in our own workshop alongside our partner craftspeople, so lead times follow our production planning rather than external supply chains. A late order (September) is still possible using existing modules; for brand-new bespoke pieces, it is riskier.

Are you planning your illuminationsfor the end of the year?

Tell us about your municipality, your site or your event. We come back to you within 48 working hours with a first response, with no obligation.
