We are market leaders in retail, heritage, leisure, education, libraries, workplace, public realm, art and art galleries, exterior architecture, environmental impact assessments and daylight design. As experts we deliver the most advanced and appropriate solutions for our clients. We are called on to contribute widely to professional bodies. Through our publications, seminars and events, we aim to educate and inspire. integrated with daylight.

4 People Centred Lighting Human interaction with architecture through the medium of light is central to our philosophy and practice. We believe in putting people at the heart of lighting. BDP has supported Maggie s charity s night hikes since 2008, raising the spirits of tired walkers with uplifting and inspirational installations at some of London s most iconic buildings. Projects include the top floor restaurant at The Gherkin (30 St Mary Axe) lit to emulate a starry night under a glass dome and an installation in the inner courtyard of St Bartholomew s Hospital. An interactive lighting display at Roca Gallery in Imperial Wharf continued the balloon motive from the previous year s installation at Horse Guard s Parade, stimulating human interaction through the power of light. At Chelsea Physic Garden a selection of origami wish cranes created by Hiroshima victim Sadako Sasaki were suspended from a memorial tree. 8

A clear conceptual approach communicated well is the foundation of any successful project. FirstSite We believe the design concept should be formulated by rigorous intellectual analysis of human concerns and how they interact with their surrounding physical environment. By understanding the value of design proposals in these terms it facilitates the task of communicating and implementing that design concept. In the event of value engineering or design change, the cost and benefit of design elements can be more easily evaluated. It is through this methodology that we create and implement world class designs. St Nickolas is a unique apartment building located on one of the oldest streets in Moscow, a few steps from the Kremlin. We have designed a discreet energy efficient LED lighting system to accentuate the strong architectural lines of the building, highlighting the baroque and classical details with minimal intervention to the fabric of the historic facade.

6 Essex Business School The first zero carbon business school in the UK for the University of Essex provides innovative social and office space for student entrepreneurs, promoting community and international links. The three storey timber frame building is conceived as a south facing crescent shaped around a mature oak tree on a sloping site, with offices and teaching spaces wrapping around a winter garden with an ETFE and timber roof. With an emphasis on passive energy reduction, daylight sensors maximise the benefit of good daylight levels and passive infra-red absence detection removes the risk of surplus lighting in less frequently occupied spaces. The architectural brief was for no ceiling mounted lighting. This was achieved by integration and the application of task based solutions. By concentrating light to where it was required, combined with control, estimated energy savings of 60% were achieved as well as delivering a high quality and flexible solution. Sustainability is rooted in our humanist approach and acknowledgement of our impact on the global community. Our designs have to satisfy the triple bottom line to be sustainable environmentally, socially and economically. Truly Sustainable 12 Lighting

8 The Point is the first phase of the world-class renaissance of Lancashire County Cricket Club providing the best 1,000 seat events venue in north west England. State of the art low energy LED lighting and controls help the design intelligently integrate both passive and active environmental thinking to provide a highly energy efficient and sustainable operation. The ability of the lighting design to contribute to LCCC s carbon reduction commitment has set a precedent for all sports venues around the world. The project has gained gold certification from the Green Business Tourism Scheme

9 The Art and Science of Light Lighting is a mixture of art and science. Experience, instinct and creativity are essential components in making inspiring spaces and manipulating the ephemeral medium that is light. Our concepts are rigorously tested to ensure the feasibility of our designs. We make sure that all our projects work - beautifully. 18

10 V&A Gallery, London The brief was to create an exemplar flexible modern exhibition space which returned the splendour of the original architecture and spectacular dome, with conservation a primary consideration. Working within the rigorous classical geometries three 9m rings were installed to house uplights to the dome and provide spotlights below using a flexible infrastructure to suit any exhibit configuration whilst enabling views to the dome above. Every fixing needed to be invisible, every radius discussed, cable routes disguised and connections to the roof immaculate. Extensive calculation, modelling and trials were undertaken to determine the decorative finishes and the subtle variations of white light deployed and demonstrate these variances to a wide stakeholder set. The contrasting 5000lux main entrance with the 50lux limit of the exhibition area required careful management. Through the use of sensitive dimming visitors eyes are able to adapt imperceptibly to the increasing darkness so that the atmosphere remains fresh and apparently bright at all times

11 Winner of a Lighting Design Award, Trinity Leeds, a 1,000,000 sq ft retail and leisure development has changed the way the city functions by day into night by creating an alluring destination through the power of light. The lighting design included all public realm, exterior facade lighting, malls and the exterior lighting of Trinity Church with, at its heart, a stunning LED installation to celebrate the spectacular sweeping glass roof. Discreetly detailed custom acrylic rods internally illuminated with RGB LEDs were mounted on the undulating roof structure. Sophisticated, low energy and easily maintainable, each can be individually controlled to create shimmering waves of light that illuminate the roof. Light shows subtly develop throughout the evening to create a changing ambience, altering daily so that shopping in Trinity is always a different experience. We continually test and challenge the market, closely following emerging technologies. Research and development are core activities. Innovation and Development 22 23

13 The WIN Award judges commented: Having visited the pavilion there is some real magic and craft in this scheme. It sits calmly in the background until you realise it is actually the showstopper, exactly what a lighting scheme should do. Warm, welcoming and stunning. Well integrated lighting scheme revealing magic by night. The environment created here is absolutely beautiful. UK Pavilion, Milan Expo 2015 The UK Pavilion is truly remarkable. A successful collaboration between Wolfgang Buttress and BDP that has resulted in a plethora of international awards including a Blueprint Award, Architectural Lighting Award, WIN Award, Darc Award and the International Prize for Best Pavilion Architecture, it responds to the brief of feeding the world in a visceral and experiential way that appeals to all ages and cultures by immersing them in sound, light, and touch. A collaboration between landscape and art, it highlights the decline of the world s bee population and the importance of pollination to the production of food. The lighting outside the sculpture had a budget of only 25,000 and yet needed to conform to European standards for ambient and emergency lighting. Additionally it needed to support the aims and vision of Wolfgang. This was achieved by integrating low cost LED into architectural and landscape features. The light was very warm to create a honey glow and kept at below eye level to allow uninterrupted views to the Hive. 26

14 Attract and Retain Attractively lit environments can generate income for clients by increasing customer flow and extending the trading day. Whether it is an individual store or the largest development in Europe, we are able to satisfy client needs. Park Lane, Meadowhall, Sheffield, one of only six super-regional shopping centres in the UK, has been redesigned using feature and functional lighting elements to increase footfall, customer retention and per capita spend within an enhanced retail environment. The roof structure is uplit via continuous RGBW luminaires, providing a fully programmable and flexible backdrop running along the entire length of the mall and onto the two main domes. Eight chandelier sculptures create a stunning centrepiece, adding accent, sparkle and contrast. From a distance they appear as intricately detailed lighting blocks and from close up they look like spiralling, falling leaves. The success of the renovation of Park Lane has led to the wider refurbishment of the Meadowhall Centre and plans for a future extension. The project was Highly Commended in the Best Decorative Lighting Installation Category at the Darc Awards. 28

15 Cardiff St David s A scheme to transform the southern end of Cardiff and give a previously underused area a new lease of life creates attractive and safe public spaces for people to enjoy, a new public library, residential accommodation and a contemporary retail provision. Cardiff is famous for its Victorian arcades and the heart of the development was the creation of a 21st century arcade, with ancillary cross arcades and bridge connections to a refurbished centre and the new John Lewis Partnership store. The project was a finalist in the National Lighting Design Awards and won the Supreme Gold Award from the British Council of Shopping Centres. The BDP team were always trying to innovate and push the boundaries in a creative sense. Andrew Dudley, Director of Project Management, Land Securities The lighting not only provides a night time draw and identity, it has also been essential in extending the trading day until midnight. A key example is the light locked food zone where the illuminated ceiling imitates natural light during the day and changes to support a sophisticated fine dining experience at night. Annual footfall is now 38 million

16 Masterplanning 32 The Liverpool ONE development has transformed and revitalised Liverpool s city centre. Involved from the outset, we were able to implement a lighting masterplan that seamlessly links the myriad buildings and public realm areas of the entire 42 acre site. With 36 new buildings and 26 different architects involved in the development, the lighting played an integral role in pulling the whole scheme together to create a visually stimulating night time environment. The lighting masterplan connects the development area extending from the Mersey to the city centre. Character zones or quarters are created, each with its own specific identity, function and architectural features. The lighting scheme worked to highlight specific nodal points and key architectural facades in these different quarters.

17 The Power of Daylight Daylight is the source of energy that drives the growth and activity of all living things. It is essential to sustaining life by deterring diseases as well as maintaining our biological rhythms and hormonal cycles. The provision of shelter and natural light has been the fundamental element of architecture throughout history. When lighting typically accounts for a third of a building s CO 2 emissions, maximising daylight and minimising glare is crucial. We have the resources and experience to fully model projects and this enables us to predict and communicate the behaviour of light in the building crucial to obtaining the BREEAM and LEED credits, as well as sometimes revealing surprising opportunities. The most crucial architectural decisions can be made at the earliest stages when massing and orientation are determined. The Enterprise Centre is the University of East Anglia s newest, Britain s greenest and one of the most sustainable buildings in Europe. The building achieved BREEAM Outstanding with a score of 90.8%, and is also Passivhaus standard. Located at the gateway to the campus, this groundbreaking building is the region s hub for entrepreneurs, innovators and businesses that are committed to building a low carbon future. 35

18 Climate Based The analysis of daylight is changing for the better. Climate based, hour-by-hour, computer simulations are now central to our advice. Whilst the techniques are in We can engage at any stage of a project. Site planning, assisting with massing, orientation, neighbouring impact and overshadowing.

19 At the Royal Alexandra Children s Hospital in Brighton the daylight and artificial design scheme took into account the latest research findings to develop unique features that contribute towards the healing process. Daylight was maximised to both the atrium and the ward spaces and artificial lighting included the UK s first dawn simulation system in a hospital ward. In all spaces extensive effort has gone into making the lighting as natural and comfortable as possible. The transition from daylit space to artificially lit space is smooth and light is reflected off the architectural surfaces to give the perception of brightness to all areas. 38 SPACE CREATE EDUCATE 39

20 FirstSite, Colchester We provided artificial and daylight design for a new build contemporary visual arts complex in Colchester by the award-winning architect Rafael Viñoly. The crescent-shaped building is wrapped in a unique gold coloured copper-aluminium alloy creating a dramatic presence which hopes to draw in the crowds. The wow factor continues inside, with a double-height entrance foyer that is flooded with daylight. Viñoly is well known for manipulating natural light magnificently within his buildings and, as daylight consultants, we were able to help analyse and sculpt the building in response to the natural lighting needs. With ample north light to exhibits, sunlight is excluded by the building form except where desired. Fenestration is placed to maximise views to and connections with the surrounding landscape. There was no need for additional shielding or brise soleil

21 Human Performance Light has a fundamental and demonstrable role to play in enhancing productivity and performance in the workplace. Atrium is the largest lighting showroom in London, designed to host events and to appeal to architects, interior designers and lighting consultants whilst providing flexibility to incorporate future products. Areas were created which display and celebrate the various capabilities and aesthetics of the lighting in the contexts of office, exhibition, bar/ kitchen, seminar room, meeting rooms and lighting workshop. A dramatically lit, sculptural stair guides visitors from the ground floor to the showroom where exposed concrete walls and columns were retained to contrast with the finely 43 engineered lighting products.

23 7 More London is the first building in London, and first major office in the UK, to be awarded the new elite standard for BREEAM Outstanding with energy performance providing an over 70% improvement on building regulations. The 48,000m 2 building has 4,500 workstations, catering for 6,300 staff whilst delivering exemplary standards in sustainable building design. The intimate, bespoke approach to the lighting results in an elegant, boutique style feel in a traditional corporate environment, allowing for flexibility and personal control. A forerunner in the use of LED technology, 35% of the luminaires are LED, the rest are fluorescent, setting a precedent for future lighting solutions in the workplace sector

24 Royal Pharmaceutical Society, London. A tired 1980s office building has been transformed into an attractive new headquarters for the Royal Pharmaceutical Society. The facade showcases the work of the society, promotes health and forms an open, accessible and inviting addition to the local community. The conversion includes the creation of a new atrium space from an existing light well at the centre of the building and the remodeling of the ground and fourth floors into a museum, conference and gathering space for staff, members and visitors. The atrium visually connects all the activities of the building and a feature staircase climbs from the library at ground floor encouraging staff integration and improving circulation around the new heart of the building

25 Preserving our Heritage Striking yet sensitive application of internal and external lighting to our historic buildings and monuments can enhance key architectural elements and bring them to life. Manchester Town Hall Extension and Central Reference Library The major refurbishment of two Grade II* listed buildings, the Town Hall Extension and Central Reference Library has a focus on centralised energy generation and safe, resilient and adaptable building services. Heritage luminaires were refurbished where possible to maintain the character of the building and provide new energy efficient lighting systems. The Central Reference Library, the largest and most popular library in Manchester, incorporating archives, exhibition space and a historic film collection has achieved BREEAM Excellent, a rare achievement for a listed building of this scale. 50 The project was Highly Commended at the Lux Awards and received a RICS Regional Award, British Council for Offices Regional Award and was voted Greater Manchester Chamber of Commerce Building of the Year.

27 The Royal Albert Hall is one of the most recognisable buildings in London and one of the major challenges of the project was the issue of planning and sensitivity. The building itself is a cultural icon and heritage issues were of utmost importance which meant close liaison with the planners and English Heritage. Additionally the new South Porch is surrounded by residential buildings and this requires the lighting to be designed with light pollution as a key factor. The lighting team was responsible for the design of new lighting to refurbished areas and to the building itself, ensuring that the public view of the building maintained the Royal Albert Hall s prominence as a major London landmark
