Through experimentation and the right product, we married dichroic, glass bricks, and LED to mind-bending effect.
The dichroic bricks were originally designed to create a stunning entrance at Royal Stacks burgers at Morris Moor. The front counter bar area featured the illuminated glass bricks customised with dichroic film, creating a dramatic entrance and mind-bending prismatic effects, creating varying colours and visual impact throughout the day.
LET YOU IN (A LITTLE) ON OUR SECRET
The biggest challenge is getting the semi-transparent bricks to not only have an even light but to conceal the light source. That called for experimentation with a grid formation and intricate mounting technique. This called for a lot of testing.
BOOST = TINY ANSWERS TO BIG IDEAS
The LED Strip is from the Boost Family, Boost by Symphony Lighting gets its name because that’s exactly what it does – gives your space a lift. So, whether it’s to put in profile for your hospitality, residential or retail project, or you have a tricky space that needs enhancement – yet you want to conceal the light source – you know the Boost range will do what it says on the packet.
We’re obviously big fans of dichroic with it being a staple of our multi-award-winning office space in big bad Bundoora.
