Ecclesiastical Lighting
Lighting of Churches and Ecclesiastical buildings often requires extreme subtlety and the minimum disturbance to the fabric of the building. Fibre optic lighting systems can do this and at the same time produce extraordinary results.Brochures
Eton Chapel
A modified version of our extruded track system was discreetly located behind the bench seats, with balanced outputs of diffused light lapping the bronze plaques of Old Etonians who had given up their lives in the service of their country, from The Boer War onwards.
The warm tonality of the engraved brass plaques is beautifully enriched by the warm colour temperature of the lampsource. Low-speed fans were used to prevent noise in the Ante Chapel, and dimming of all MH systems was via an integral 0-10 volt interface.
Fibre optics were also used within the Chapel itself, to provide emergency lighting. The lightheads, powered at source via a maintained battery back up system for a low voltage lamp, are almost entirely invisibly concealed within the carved woodword at the base of the choir stalls
