Project Guerrilla Lighting
The concept of Guerrilla Lighting was created by Martin Lupton, director of BDP Lighting, for the purpose of raising awareness of the power of lighting. Under the guidance of a team leader, each member will take part in creating transient lighting designs by using high powered torches, battery powered LED projectors, luminous dot lights and an array of gels and filters. Instructed to be in a specific position and at a given distance from their target, the teams will simultaneously light up various aspects of the Pool of London’s architecture on cue at the sound of an air horn, creating a dramatic spectacle. The installation will photographed, the lighting turned off and then the team move on to the next site.
The teams will be made up of local lighting designers, architects, interior designers and manufacturers, all of whom are keen to draw attention to the possibilities, and importance of, lighting in the urban environment.

SkyCeilings: Authentic Sky Illusions
Utilize patent-pending ‘elevators’ - aluminum frames that raise the image tiles above the flat bottom of the ceiling grid, giving SkyCeiling structures a 3-dimensional, architectural presence, like a real skylight.
Luminous SkyCeilings include one of two lighting systems: 6500K, T-5 fluorescents, or; 6000K, RFfreeLux™ LED lighting for MRI, and other shielded environments. Both systems provide daylight-balanced light (the same light used to treat Seasonal Affective Disorder) for rich color rendition and recognition as “natural” daylight.
SkyCeilings feature proprietary, high-resolution photography, that provides a stunning 3-dimensional experience when used in concert with SkyCeilings lighting and elevators. You are able to display hundreds of beautiful images of real skies, clouds, trees, foliage, and blossoms to choose from.

SolarCap Light Emitting tile
The SolarCap system consists of modular, self-contained lighting devices that can be used for decorative or traffic flow purposes - powered only by solar energy. These unique devices incorporate the newest “EnergyCache” technology for energy storage, instead of the high maintenance rechargeable batteries that are currently used in solar deviced. Unlike batteries which must be changed every two-three years and can not tolerate environmental extremes, EnergyCaches enable SolarCap lighting to be used i any environmental without maintenance for more than 10 years with a wide operating temperature range of -25 - 60 degree C.
During daylight hours, the tiles use solar cells to capture energy from the sun that is than converted to electricity and storef using SolarCap’s EnergyCaches to automatically turn on soft light emiting diode (LED) lighting in the evening. Full charge takes about one hour under direct sunlight and up to eight hours in shady or indirect lighting conditions. The light will stay on for up to 12 hours with fully charged EnergyCaches.
Available in six colours, user can arrange SolarCap light emitting tiles in any imaginable shape or space to achieve a variety of drsired effects for residential or commercial applications in high-traffic or isolated areas. They can be easily installed just like a standard brick or tile on horizontal or vertical surfaces.
