Light and Shadow Weave the Yixing Dream: Road Lighting Project for Yixing High-speed Railway New Town, Jiangsu

Dusk sweeps over the mountains of Yixing. When the first streak of light flickers on the roads, this city, nurtured by the ethereal charm of mountains and rivers, gently unfolds its graceful veil under the delicate strokes of light and shadow.

The reassuring protection of road lighting, the artistic ambiance created by cultural tourism lighting, the innovative empowerment of cultural and creative light displays, and the low-carbon energy efficiency of smart lighting — all take light as a brush to depict a livable, travel-friendly, healthy and comfortable high-quality light environment on Yixing’s landscape scroll. Meanwhile, they also write a new chapter of green and smart urban development.

The beauty of Yixing lies in the symbiosis of its landscapes and culture. The lighting design crafted by our company (Sanxing Lighting) never disturbs the tranquility bestowed by nature; instead, it adheres to the principle of a healthy light environment, allowing light to serve as the finishing touch that brings out the charm of the mountains and rivers. The lights do not vie with the stars for radiance nor compete with the moon for brightness. They merely spread a gentle and reassuring glow, enabling pedestrians returning home late and residents at rest to feel the warmth of the city amid the interplay of light and shadow.

If road lighting is the livelihood cornerstone of Yixing, then cultural tourism lighting and cultural & creative light displays are the poetic soul of this city. Our company’s smart landscape street lamp, Navigator, outlines the city’s skyline with a sleek and modern design, and uses the subtle charm of auxiliary light sources to illuminate the nighttime cultural tourism experience. Each lamp is not only a technological beacon guiding people home, but also a luminous calling card that embodies the city’s cultural heritage, allowing every scene in the night to exude the unique charm exclusive to Yixing.

These lighting designs do not blindly pursue extravagance; instead, they deeply explore Yixing’s local culture, integrating landscape elements and cultural heritage into the lighting scheme. In this way, light is no longer merely a lighting tool, but a carrier that conveys the city’s culture and evokes emotional resonance. Thus, every visitor to Yixing can appreciate the city’s unique appeal amid the shifting play of light and shadow.

Behind this unique charm is Yixing’s steadfast commitment to the concept of a low-carbon green city. High-efficiency and energy-saving LED light sources, combined with our company’s single-lamp control system, enable on-demand lighting adjustment. The system automatically regulates light intensity based on sunlight duration, ambient brightness and pedestrian flow — which not only meets lighting requirements, but also minimizes energy consumption and reduces carbon emissions to the greatest extent.

The multi-functional pole integration design is a vivid embodiment of the “green intensification” concept. By integrating various municipal facilities, it eliminates redundant construction, saves urban space, and makes urban infrastructure more efficient and eco-friendly. Between the interplay of light and shadow lies Yixing’s reflection on balancing ecology and development, as well as its resolve to build a green home for all.

From illuminating the paths underfoot to kindling the soul of the city; from satisfying functional needs to pursuing health and comfort; from traditional lighting to smart and low-carbon solutions — the lighting development of Yixing High-speed Railway New Town Road Lighting Project is a vivid microcosm of the city’s stride toward a new realm of livability and travel-friendliness. Here, light blends with mountains and rivers, coexists with culture, and accompanies people’s livelihoods. It not only brightens the city’s nights, but also illuminates people’s aspirations for a better life.

Moving forward, our company will continue to drive the innovation and upgrading of product R&D and design, launch lighting products and urban furniture tailored to diverse needs, further advance smart products and low-carbon energy-saving technologies, create a healthy and smart urban light environment, enhance product experience, facilitate urban renewal, and illuminate a better China with the power of technological light.
