Whitegoods products illuminate Harrods of London

“Lighting design in retail is the process of
integrating light within the fabric of the architecture” state
LightTecnica and it is for this reason that they chose Whitegoods lighting solutions to enhance the space and ambience of some
of the most prestigious areas of Harrods, the iconic
London department store The Whitegoods family of luminaires delivers the
highest quality integrated architectural lighting design:
innovative, minimal, practical and functional. The Harrods Wine store required minimal impact
lighting which was provided by the use of CDM Metal halide
wall wash luminaires around the perimeter wine shelves and
the latest Whitegoods gimbal range of trimless 150 single
directional units, combined with 150 round CDM-TC down lights allowed for a flexible lighting strategy on the main floor
areas, with additional concealed Cove feature lighting
around the escalators.
The combination of the 150mm aperture metal halide
down lights and directional down lights in the wine store work
congruously and effortlessly together, complemented by the
excellent vertical illumination provided by the Whitegoods wall wash
unit. Concealed Light Strip Cove lighting further enhances the
space with shadow free feature lighting in key areas.
In The International Designer Room (6), Whitegoods
minimal impact, single & double directional gimbals in low
voltage halogen & CDM metal halide were used to create a totally flexible
retail lighting space. Small trimless halogen down lights were used in the
changing rooms. Single directional gimbal units in white
complement the main lighting in the approaching areas, providing
a harmonious lightingsolution in the overall space.
Colour coded, triple trimless CDM-TC Metal
Halide and LV Linear gimbal clusters in black match the black
ceiling. Complementary single units in white were used in the
approaches to the main floor.
The Halcyon Art Gallery, situated on the second
floor of Harrods, is one of the world’s largest art galleries.
Covering 5000 sq feet, this Gallery has become a world-class destination
for art collectors who are drawn to the inspirational art and its
unique location. Designed by AHMM Architects, with lighting design
by Studio ZNA, Whitegoods were specified using their trimless
P100LDL continuous linear to create an ethereal glow around the
entrance to the door gallery.
Overlapping T5 fluorescent lamps provide shadow
free feature lighting.
At last, it’s not just the Christmas lights that
look good in Harrods!
