Purple and Orange and Red and Blue……..?
The Silva range of fittings from Bruck is the “Must Have” in any specification and it just gets better. Bruck have recently spent a lot of time and effort on quality control and as a result the fittings now seem to have many more colours .The Silva name is a play on words I think as it is pure silver in its dormant state. These are the larger 110mm shades mounted into ceiling plugs. Bruck manufacture both low voltage and mains track versions as well as wall lights and spot lights.
“Upwardly Mobile”
demonstrating the effect of a combination of ambient downlighting and architectural up lighting in churches from the proposed mounting positions has in the past been both precarious and expensive but the power lift we have invested in makes this a one man job where adjustments are easy to perform. This recent demonstration for both the PCC and DAC allowed us to show position and visual scale and to gauge the light effects at night making adjustments to the angles and taking light meter readings at “Hymn Book Height"

Work In progress:-
Finished :- The Moooi range of Led Chandeliers were a new addition to the showroom display this year and here is one aloft in a large sitting room space in a barn in South Norfolk together with asymmetrical up-lighting and two Occhio filter wall lights.
On-Going :- In North Norfolk work is on-going in this vaulted corridor but as this temporary installation shows, the led linear strips cast a very effective wash into the fanlight and beyond. The site lights will go !!!
