Whimsical Lighting at the Airport
I always enjoy seeing someone take something that would otherwise be standard and typical, and add a little touch of creativity. This lighting at the airport in Vancouver, Canada is a nice example of that. They could have simply installed parallel rows of average looking lights and be done with it, but instead, someone decided to do something a little a different, and as a result, people actually spend some time appreciating airport lighting that they would normally certainly ignore.
