Installed Products
A billion colours of light
A dynamic, programmable lighting installation bursting with imagination. Billion Pixels is a memorable introduction to an innovative space.
Our Signature Design Pearl Curtain was chosen as the structural inspiration for Billion Pixels. Pearl Curtain is composed of component groups, a number of spheres hanging above one another on a single suspension. Important to this project was that the cluster could combine different illumination methods.
A dynamic lighting welcome
Billion Pixels is situated in the reception area of the Sky Innovation Centre. It is a dynamic lighting installation using RGBW sources with integrated digital multiplex (DMX) control. Sky Innovation Centre is the latest building within Sky UK’s campus. Sky internal agency, SKY Creative Agency, led the project. They wanted a bespoke lighting installation for the reception area, one that would allow them to play with the programming and offer a unique experience.
Strong and Inspiring Relationship
The collaboration between the teams at Preciosa and Sky Creative was critical to the success of this complex installation. Our dedicated R&D team developed an entirely new programming loop for this customised installation. Engineering, electrical and construction teams all shared their expertise to create this magnificent art piece.
“The finished result has met all of our expectations and in some cases exceeded them. When I walk in, we feel immense pride and we think that we've created something that really sums up the spirit of this building. It is a real manifestation of the Sky glass brand identity and actually it's just really beautiful.”
