Federation Square
Melbourne's Federation Square is a modern campus of buildings, all of which house Arts and Entertainment facilities.
Lightmoves supplied a comprehensive lighting control system to provide the dimming and other control needed for these highly sophisticated buildings.
The Ian Potter Centre - National Gallery of Victoria
The 20 gallery spaces used a total of 228 Dynalite 905 (12 channel) dimmers (2196 dimmers in total) supplied by Dynalite distributors Lightmoves. The number of dimmers varies in each gallery, the largest has around 230 dimmer channels connected to 3 circuit lighting track. The walls within the gallery are not parallel - there are no right angles. In addition, the lighting track is not parallel to the walls. Light levels need to be 50 lux maintained across the wall, therefore the lighting track was installed in small lengths.
Australian Centre for the Moving Image (ACMI)
A glazed central arcade links two discrete structures and forms the primary entrance space for the numerous activities and facilities of these two important cultural organisations. As part of the overall design concept for Federation Square , this 'central arcade' provides both the entry and foyer to this complex. Importantly, it operates as a connection to the civic square, to the other destinations of Federation Square and to the Yarra River .
The BMW Edge Theatre
Characterised by its glass walled enclosure, providing a view for visitors. At night this is transformed by spotlighting the structure within the double glazed skin. This highlights the triangulated structural system of galvanised steel and enhances the transparency of the theatre. During performances the entire translucent ceiling can be backlit to create an ambient glow and is supplemented by discrete theatrical lighting.
The Atrium forms one of the primary points of entry into the complex from Flinders Street giving it a strong street presence at night. Lighting by Griven Kolorado enriches the jutting entrance from within, dazzling the public with beautiful colour changes.
