Lighting Technology Projects has completed the specification, supply and installation of a white lighting scheme for the Grade 1 listed All Soul’s Church on Regent Street, in central London’s Marylebone district.
Designed by King George IV’s favourite architect John Nash, All Souls is a ‘Waterloo’ church, built in 1823 as part of the nation’s thanksgiving for the victory of Wellington over Napoleon.
Constructed from Bath stone, the design combines a 160 ft Gothic style spire and a classical rotunda ‘body’. It is the last surviving John Nash church.
The whole frontage of the building has been lit in three sections – the lower rotunda (including the entrance), the upper rotunda and the spire.
The principal spire lighting scheme consists of 14 Astralux ARC 6 150W searchlights, each located at the base of and up-lighting the 14 individual spire flutes. These were chosen for their marine-grade durability and because they light each 20 metre spire facet with no discernable hot spots or tail off of light output.
