ARCHITECTURAL

Everyone knows lights at night creates ambience. The colour and intensity of light can make the difference; soft light for a cosy or romantic mood; flashing colours for a party mood or bright, white light for simulated daylight. Strategic placement of the light, whether its indirect or directional plays a key part, especially in architectural lighting.

Using fibre optics for architectural lighting gives an element that conventional lighting and LEDs doesn’t; easy maintenance (one light source for many points of light), cold light (ideal for heat-sensitive artifacts or items), water resistance (great for outdoors and in water features) and no electrical current (perfect for lighting up pools and the fibres are not hazardous to touch). The illuminator must be kept well ventilated and mostly dry.

Fibre optic lighting makes an ideal, practical and economical option to conventional lighting for architectural purposes. With low running costs and easy maintenance and and since the fibres do not need replacing, lighting up high buildings, structures and even sculptures is much more simple.

With these attributes in mind, this makes fibre optics very versatile;
-Outline the perimeter of buildings
-Colour wash walls
-Colour wash rooms
-Colour changing downlights
-Create light designs
-Control ambience and mood with a flick of a switch or push of a button
