Frame Projector Lighting
SmithMatthias were approached by SHH Architects to design and support production on over 200 light fittings for a residential project. The client was an avid art collector and required the pieces be lit a certain way. Inspired by theatre lighting, we created a way to shape and adjust the light to reflect the size and shape of the art. Due to complicated planning restrictions the lighting units were housed between joists using a custom and discrete plaster-in unit.
