Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery
In 2011 we designed the lighting for the new History Gallery that will take up the whole of the front of the second floor. This large gallery will tell the story of Birmingham from its earliest days to the present. The lighting system selected, after a series of careful trials, was track mounted variable beam LED spotlights. These spotlights also have individual dimmers so that the lighting level on each object can be carefully selected and the lighting levels over a series of objects and displays can be carefully graded to give the very best visual experience for the visitors. The gallery will open in September 2012.
Powis castle – National Trust
In 2009 we provided a design for new lighting of a number of rooms in the castle. This is being implemented in the Dining Room and State Bedroom this year.
Dyrham Park House – National Trust
In 2008 we prepared a comprehensive report on ways to upgrade the lighting in various parts of the house. For the 2010 season we have gone onto design the lighting for the Great hall and Diogenes Room.
American Museum, Bath
We are now designing the lighting of a new Folk art gallery. Last year we designed the lighting for two new silver cases and the first of the historic room settings at the museum. The upgrading to the lighting in the house will be carried out over a number of years as funds become available.
