| Has anyone ever thought of this?
In my country, you sometimes randomly encounter 'statue gardens' - tiny parks, sometimes literally privately owned backyards that have a collection of statues you can come and admire.
I think it would be quite spectacular to have something similar, but with street lighting. After all, those belong outside and only when they're up high in a pole they look like they should.
There are very limited cases of this in open air musea here, but the focus of those musea is rarely the lighting or lighting tech.
Hell, it would be quite artsy to have this in the middle of absolutely nowhere. Just a long unlit road, with suddenly a brightly and variedly lit long layby that has a row of historically interesting street lights. Some municipal or national monuments here often have replica lighting, but it just hurts a bit to have some interesting industrial building that was last used in the 1980s, to be revamped with modern tech instead of what it either was designed with, or what it was last used with.
I know some of us have a pole or two in the backyard, but the average backyard isn't really suitable to blast a couple hundred watts of HID and other street lights without keeping the neighbors awake lol
