Exterior Lighting Adjustable Track System from WE-EF

lighting system for The Calyx Sydney Royal Botanic Gardens

Unique lighting system for a unique glasshouse: The Calyx, NSW

The Calyx project at Sydney's Royal Botanic Gardens has achieved unprecedented design flexibility and accuracy with an adjustable lighting track system - which is unique in the world of architectural exterior lighting.

As part of a major refurbishment project at the Ken Woolley-designed Arc glasshouse, which was completed in 1987, the Calyx is a semi-enclosed area featuring greenhouse - type climatic conditions. It's 30 degrees and 70 per cent humidity inside, with sprinklers, not typical for an indoor lighting space.

The reinvigorated Calyx houses a varying range of displays including: new, innovative interpretation and horticulture displays; improved amenities; and an expanded formal education programme.

To accommodate the changing needs of the space, the project lighting designer was looking for a dynamic and flexible lighting solution that could be easily augmented and recommissioned in semi-outdoor conditions. The IP66-rated (dust and water jet tight) RAIL66 projector mounting system from WE-EF has provided the optimum fit for the project brief as well as an energy efficient and precise lighting solution with unmatched flexibility. DALI-controlled FLC131 and FLC141 LED projector luminaires were installed on the RAIL66 throughout the glasshouse for accent lighting and in the gift shop for general lighting.
