Aberdeen Art Gallery

For the War Memorial wing at Aberdeen Art Gallery, Spectral Lighting in collaboration with Speirs and Major came up with a visually stunning yet entirely cohesive pendant light that combined visual brightness with adjustable ‘beamers’ to highlight specific areas; in addition the pendant was to house two high output high definition projection systems.

The 500kg, 5.5m diameter pendant is raised and lowered on a winching system from ETS. Finite lighting control was achieved using EldoLed drivers which allows stepless smooth control of the light levels down from 100% to 0%. The pendant also contained eight discreet low glare adjustable downlights which are capable of rotating through 360’ and tilt up to 30 degrees to give maximum flexibility for future exhibitions.
