Virgin Active
Virgin Active requested that lighting and sound work together to create the right interactive surroundings during a workout or class. The brief was to create individual lighting scenes to match the theme and the intensity of the different types of classes and workouts. Aurora was asked by Pro Electrical, in October 2017, to partner with them and Matthew Smith, National Projects Manager, took on the challenge to help to complete the project.
Alongside Pro Electrical the project completed with alternative packaging using Aurora, Custom Extrusion made in Australia and Aurora’s Phase Dimmable Eddi T1 track light, which was modified in Australia, with support from OAK Electronics. Most of this project required custom products due to controls being a mix of Dali and DMX, Run RGBW, RGB & Tuneable White. Our thanks also go to the teams at FDC Building and Wholesaler Go Electrical at Castle Hill for their support on this challenging design.
Matthew Smith says, ‘The proof of our combined success is in the images. Yes, obstacles arose but with the help from some key people involved in the project we always found a solution. Even on the last night before opening, I took my son to site and we both rewired drivers to get the project across the line.’
