Overview: Vivid lighting for two important statues, with minimal daytime impact and maximum night-time impact.
Completed: 2005
The Kelvin and Lister statues lie within an historic park setting in the West End of Glasgow. Both statues (and indeed the park) are protected by statutory listing and required careful planning in consultation with the local authority and other stakeholders.
High specification lighting equipment is installed in to kerbstones modelled on the statues and the lights are fitted with accurate optics to prevent light spill.
The lighting is long life, low maintenance and low power.
The final scheme is highly effective at night and sympathetic to the park environment during the day.
