The New Riga Theatre (JRT) has undergone a major transformation: the historic building was connected to a new extension, creating a functional and aesthetically balanced environment. The New Riga Theater project has received the highest recognition—the Grand Prix at the Latvian Architecture Award 2024. In this project, the KRASSKY team was responsible for facade and interior lighting. Theatre building is an architectural monument, so it was necessary to develop delicate and intelligent lighting solutions. Taking into account the unique features of a theatre, the lighting design includes various scenarios that organically enhance the overall dramaturgy of the space.
