The Babel Community was inaugurated in 2017 as the first French co-living residence, but it’s so much more than that. It’s a place where groups come together to share their stories and life goals, and where people go to unwind, work or take advantage of the on-site sports facilities.
Bordeaux, Grenoble, Montpellier, Paris... These cities are among the many currently incorporating these communal spaces that blend living, co-working, and a diverse range of facilities and activities. Among them is Ciel Rooftop, an authentic Italian restaurant nestled within the terrace of the Marseille Vieux-Port residence. Positioned on the seventh floor, it offers one of the most picturesque sunset views in the city.
And if your aperitivo slowly turns into a dinner as the dusky sky fills with stars, you can always rely on Creative-Cables to light up your evening.
The project hatched from the need to rethink the illumination for the terrace’s outdoor dining area, starting from a simple and reliable product capable of enduring rain and bad weather. A wired, versatile product that allows for complete customisation of your lighting arrangement.
More lights on the tables or above the bar counter and softer atmospheres next to the sofas? Every customer's need has been heard, for a carefully designed tailor-made project, starting from the floor plan of the space.
To create an installation that met all expectations, we started with Eiva-2, the two-way lamp holder that combines aesthetics and safety, the perfect component for string lights. Thanks to the special insulating gel inside and the membrane tightly clothing the bulb, this lamp holder boasts an IP65 protection degree that can safely withstand rain and storms.
One of the most appreciated features among our clients is the ability to effortlessly add lampshades at any time, without having to alter the installation. This allows for easy future adjustments to the restaurant's atmosphere, providing flexibility and versatility.
Over 100 metres of white outdoor fabric cable were used to link the 65 lamp holders, which on top of seamlessly blending with the string lights also added timeless elegance to the project. Lastly, the composition was completed by some LED Globe G95 light bulbs with curved double loop filament, which provide the warm, natural lighting sought by the client.
