The Terrassa City Council has launched its groundbreaking campaign “In Terrassa, Innovation Has a Face and Eyes”, an initiative that highlights the talent, creativity, and dedication of the city’s companies and research groups. Within this framework, LEDDREAM GROUP joins as one of the leading participants — a company committed to technology and research as drivers of urban transformation.
LEDDREAM GROUP, one of the most innovative companies in Terrassa (Barcelona), together with its digital lighting division Lumalia Studio, has led the luminous transformation of the façade of Hospital Sant Joan de Déu in Barcelona. Through creativity and technology, they have turned the building into a visually immersive space that connects with both its surroundings and the people who experience it.
The company has established itself as one of Europe’s leading references in digital and audiovisual solutions, with projects across Europe, the Americas, Africa, and the Middle East. Through its divisions — w, specialized in architectural digital lighting, and Channel4You, its creative content studio — LEDDREAM GROUP delivers a comprehensive vision that merges design, engineering, technology, and creativity applied to diverse environments.
Impact on Urban Design: A Dynamic Façade with 320 Digital Luminaires
The intervention by Lumalia Studio transforms the hospital’s façade into a canvas of organic, dynamic light that flows naturally with the building and its surroundings. The installation integrates 320 HRW luminaires distributed across a matrix of more than 12,000 pixels, enabling precise light control and creating a seamless visual flow between the interior and exterior, evoking a sense of movement and vitality.
Meanwhile, Channel4You developed the visual content projected onto the façade — from figurative concepts to abstract and playful compositions designed for younger audiences, such as underwater scenes, whales, or geometric shapes. The result is a project that fuses architecture, design, and technological innovation to create a unique sensory experience — one that sparks a dialogue between the city, the space, and the people who inhabit it.

Light as an Architectural Language
Digital lighting has become an essential element in contemporary architecture, capable of transforming spaces into immersive experiences. Light no longer simply illuminates — it communicates, connects, and builds identity.
Facades, ceilings, and canopies evolve into living surfaces through programmable systems that can adjust the atmosphere according to the time of day or the function of the space. Light transcends its technical role to become a medium of expression, capable of creating emotional connections and evoking sensations that go far beyond the visual.
From commercial and corporate environments to hotels, restaurants, and public spaces, digital lighting has established itself as a bridge between design, sustainability, and technology, redefining the way we live in and experience our surroundings.
This project adds to Lumalia Studio’s distinguished portfolio, reaffirming its leadership in architectural digital lighting and light-based storytelling. Among its most notable works are the 200 sqm canopy and the 1,100 sqm immersive ceiling with an interactive lighting experience at L’Illa Diagonal Shopping Center; the 200 sqm backlit digital ceiling adaptable to any type of event at LOOM Events; and the dynamic canopy at Hotel Golden Port Salou. In addition, Lumalia Studio has created numerous artistic installations in both urban and corporate environments, showcasing how digital lighting can redefine spaces and create unique, memorable experiences that merge technology, design, and emotion.
