As part of a major reordering project, funded both by the HLF and the City Burgesses, Light Perceptions has relit the interior and exterior of Sheffield Cathedral.
The new interior scheme use discrete groups of LED luminaires to provide general, accent and upward lighting for all parts of the interior. The energy efficient lighting is controlled by a series of touch screen panels which allow vergers and clergy access to a wide range of preset settings which apply either globally across the whole interior or locally within individual chapel spaces.
The external lighting is designed to complement the new landscaping of the Cathedral precinct bringing focus to its principal entrance at the heart of the City Centre.
