Lighting Installation L'Occitane Regent Street Halo Lighting London

 

  • The Brief: The company were designing their new window display for their regent street store. Some 250 convex and 250 Fresnel lenses had been hung on fishing wire in the window and Halo were asked to find a way to illuminate in themed colours, though without overly lighting the street or the store.  
  • The Installation: To light the 500 lenses evenly and to meet the client’s requirements, we installed some Chauvet Q6 Slim Pars evenly along the window. These were then angled precisely to point through the lenses at such an angle that the light was refracted to hit the window at a right angle. The lights were then programmed in yellow and blue colour sequences.   
  • The Challenges: The main challenges were balancing the brightness of the lights that were illuminating the lenses, though not blinding the people walking past the shop. This was all the more challenging that the system was installed at night due to the short time frame and the fact that the store did not want to close for the installation.
