• Flood Lighting designs

• Stadiums
• Section 106, 278 and 38 Development control
  Lighting designs for new housing developments or commercial sites to gain Council approval for adoption.
• Light art
  Working with artists to assist them to realise their vision of their art and create a different and transforming version of the piece after dark.  As a lighting designer I can bring out different facets of the artists work and add a whole separate dimension for the piece at night which may not have been visible during daylight hours.
• Building Facades
  Imaginative lighting to create features or to work with them so enhancing the look of the architecture after dark.
• Town Centres
  Dynamic lighting for City centres has its own challenges and I work with City planners and architects to bring the space to life both with visual impact during the day and interesting lighting for after dark. Christmas lighting incorporation saves counciils yearly spend and can be used for revenue generation for other events. Bespoke Lighting Designs keep each project fresh and gives identity to the Town or City with its individual night time look.
• Theatres
  Energy management and controls are key in these spaces to ensure best use of the light gives the best effects. Wow factor is often required along with ease of maintenance for a truly encompassing lighting scheme. Advertising opportunities and flexibility need to be addressed and can bring income along with diversity to the theatres lighting.
• Retail centres
  Large shopping emporium lighting takes on a bold approach in these materialist times. Lighting therefore needs to entice, cosset and conjole visitors to come, stay and more importantly feel comfortable to spend. I bring that design flare to your project and working with the architects and M&E consultants, my input will enhance their deisgns whilst saving you the client money for your maintenance/energy for the future.
• Sports pitches
• Religious buildings
  Lighting for reglious buildings requires subtle, discreet deisgns which embrace the space and lift the soul. Maintenance is still a consideration and ease of use for all lighting settings a must.
• Museums/Gallery Lighting Design
  Beautiful things need fabulous lighting without degrading or destroying the items. Lighting that enhances the exhibits and gives them visitor appeal will keep displays fresh and adds to the experience.
• Atria Lighting
  Often a large, difficult to maintain, space where lighting needs to mimic daylight to create an open and airy environment. I take into consideration all elements of the structure and not only how to light it to best effect but also how will lamps be changed and how to keep that cost to a minimum.  The lighting design for this space must be well thought out to avoid issues during its life.
• Lighting Strategies
  Whole towns and Cities can have detailed and encompassing lighting strategies where I as a  consultant will give a clear plan of what lighting will be used, how and where, but most importantly how much it will cost to purchase, install and maintain. Smaller strategies can be done for areas around a single road or for main buildings within a town/city.  The lighting document can be high level or go into the smallest detail, taking it to whichever level best suits you and the use of the space.
