Abstrakt: The facades of buildings that have urban value and shape the silhouette of the city are often illuminated. Besides cultural and historical buildings, illuminating industrial heritage sites is a way of expressing a city's modernity, and development and memory in the context of today's urban design. This growing interest may foster social awareness and help to promote conservation and preserve these landmarks. Dating back to Byzantine times, Tirilye is a historical district of Bursa province on the south coast of the Marmara Sea. As an example of an industrial heritage site built by the Greeks in the 19th century. Tirilye olive oil factory embodies technical equipment used in the olive oil production process and represents the development of production technologies of the 1950s. The building is out of use and waiting to be renovated to become a part of daily life and tourism activities today. This paper presents an outdoor lighting design proposal to highlight the architectural characteristics of the site by advancing observation and experience of the place's identity at night time. It is aimed to augment the attractiveness of the factory complex for citizens and visitors and contribute to tourism and indirectly local economy by illuminating the building's main facade and details. A three-dimensional model of the site was created and lighting simulations were performed in the DIALux Evo program. Quality and quantity of the facade lighting application together with the aspects of future user profile and recommended museum function of the existing building, and its surroundings are considered in the outdoor lighting design process.
