&#8220;Grass carpet&#8221; is the translation in Aramaic of Beit Jala, one of the oldest cities in Palestine. Located in the West Bank region, it is less than a mile away from Bethlehem and about six miles from Jerusalem. Traditionally an agricultural town, in recent years it has seen significant growth in the handicraft sector, largely consisting of local workshops producing a variety of objects, made from olive wood and mother-of-pearl, and traditional Palestinian clothes, making it world-famous.
Although most of the population in Beit Jala is Christian, other religious communities, such as the Muslim one, coexist peacefully. The religious variety is reflected not only in the presence of churches and mosques but also in the existence of many different cultural institutions, including the Orthodox school founded in 1870 and the Latin Patriarchate school. The latter was founded in the Holy Land back in 1854 to provide an education for the children of Bethlehem and teach them values such as peace and respect. Today, the school serves students from pre-school to secondary level and consists of about thirty classes.
Recently, the façade of the school of the Latin Patriarchate required a new lighting system that could emphasise its very special architectural structure, while creating evocative light effects at the same time. The Beam Engineering Technology design studio developed, together with Disano, a custom-made lighting system, comprising Microfloor LED recessed spotlights.
These fixtures, which are very simple and functional, are equipped with the latest generation of LEDs that ensure high energy savings and a very long service life, which are key features in places, such as schools, where lights need to stay on for most of the day.
In addition, the light of the Microfloor residential spotlights is stable and glare-free, which allows preserving the architectural structure, the natural and urban surroundings as well as the visual wellbeing of passers-by.
With such a lighting installation, designed by Disano, the school in Beit Jala now has lights that can enhance its exteriors, making it recognizable in the surrounding urban fabric.
