Bristol Harbourside Lightwall
Bristol, UK
Elements of lighting and video converge in this unique interactive installation at Millennium Square in Bristol, conceived by renowned design firm Speirs and Major Associates.

The project was commissioned by developers Crest Nicholson PLC, who appointed lighting designers from Speirs and Major Associates to examine the development’s facades addressing the public square. Working in consultation with architects Faulkner Browns and artist Tim Knowles, the designers conceptualized a dynamic lighting scheme that would bring color, movement and interactivity to the otherwise static walls.

The aptly named “Lightwall” measures 157 by 39 feet (48 by 12 meters), and combines an intelligent LED lighting system with innovative video control technology, movement sensors and cameras to respond to passers-by with engaging patterns of light.   Learn more...
