Deceptively large, with an 8.8m base diameter, 27.57m base circumference and a height of 42m, our design sees each chimney washed with a precisely controlled, beautifully even coverage of light.
Deceptively large, with an 8.8m base diameter, 27.57m base circumference and a height of 42m, our design sees each chimney washed with a precisely controlled, beautifully even coverage of light.
Mindful of balancing an impactful visual effect with minimal brightness and light spill for the residents who will eventually occupy the upper floors - as well our general regard for avoiding waste and limiting energy use - each chimney is lit with 50 narrow beam RGBW LED projectors.
Under normal use, the chimneys will be revealed in white light with the projectors operating at 50% (or lower) output, generating an electrical load in the order of 2.5kW per chimney – less than the power of many kitchen kettles.
For events and civic occasions, each of the projectors is individually addressable and dimmable from 0 -100%, allowing for fabulous dynamic colour and animated light shows.
Many more areas are currently in development as part of Phase 2 and 3, including the main public entrances, interior public spaces and several key parts of the public realm.
