acdc’s PLAZA S3x bring the sparkle to Paul Hamlyn Hall. Once a flower market, it now functions as a restaurant and champagne bar and occasional performance space. The project’s Lighting Designer, Chris Sutherland (Studio Fractal) explained, “The PLAZA S3x is used within Paul Hamlyn Hall to gently highlight the rhythm of architectural features and columns within the space, bringing it to life at night whilst respecting the architecture.”
In ground floor showcases, the small, adjustable DARC PRO was used to draw attention to theatrical displays and illuminate artefacts on foyer shelves.
Outside, Covent Garden’s piazza and retail colonnade is decked out with PLAZA 10 floodlights. Drawing in the crowds, these compact surface-mounted gems dramatically emphasise the building’s façade creating shafts of light that graze upwards.
