0 - The Lighting Practice used KiNet from a Pharos LPC 4 to control the façade to lighting with a full spectrum of colours and a variety of dynamic light effects
- In total, 504 windows are illuminated with linear RGBW LED luminaires mounted at each sill
- In order to ensure the new lighting is balanced sensitively with the Victorian architecture, the fixtures all have custom enclosures painted to match the building façade
- Changes to the lighting display can be made via an on-site TPC or remote desktop
