The Brief

The SGB Group wanted the Lighthouse to be different to all their other venues, with a far more retro feel. As such they didn’t want any intelligent features, purely generic.

What we did

To fit both the brief and the small and unique venue, Par 30s were mounted onto Ali plate, using custom extrusion, in clusters of two and installed around the roof of the venue. These were then wired to be individually programmable using a ShowCad system. We also installed a sound system in the venue to fit both live music events and ambient music during the day to day running. The requirement was to install a system that would not only meet their needs but also not disturb the neighbors. This was especially complicated as the venue had single glazing windows.

The Challenges

The main challenge was the vast amount of cabling used, as none of the lights installed had DMX and had to go through dimmers.
