This video presents facade lighting design for Makassar Cathedral (Gereja Katedral Makassar), exploring the relationship between exterior illumination, architectural character, and the nighttime presence of a place of worship.

The cathedral provides a setting for considering how light can reveal architectural form and detail while respecting the identity of sacred architecture. Facade lighting offers an opportunity to create a welcoming presence and convey a sense of reverence through the building’s exterior expression.

For architects, lighting designers, consultants, church representatives, and facility teams, the video offers a reference for considering the relationship between facade lighting and the experience of a religious building after dark.

Part of the Herwin Gunawan Work video library, this entry connects with ALTA Integra’s human-centered approach to building performance, bringing architectural context, design intent, and human experience into the discussion of lighting design.
