Abstract

The blocks (3) are held together without the use of mortar in a support structure (1, 2, 7, 12, 13) which forms intermediate spaces in at least one direction so that one or more lights (4, 14) can be provided on the sides (12) of the blocks, allowing light to be visible from the front and rear sides. The lights are covered on the front and rear sides by the support structure.
