Left A view from within the central sculptural pod is framed by a soft glow, created by LED Linear VarioLED Flex fixtures, while iGuzzini Laser Blade recessed wall wash luminaires illuminate the perimeter wall and iGuzzini Laser LED recessed spotlights pattern the gallery ceiling. Below Two of the gallery’s many historic objects are put under the spotlight. More specifically, a model of a Globtik Tanker is lit by Mike Stoane LED Goal modular showcase strip luminaires, while an early example of the world famous Enigma machine is bathed in light from Mike Stoane S-Stick adjustable spotlights.
evaluate lighting equipment and details to ensure they could specify and detail with confidence, as well as experiment with various approaches to object lighting. ‘‘The final touch was selecting the right colour for the central sculptural pod. Lit by linear LED concealed along the frame, within the double layer of translucent skin, the hue is asymmetric, to give an impression of movement. The colour was carefully selected in consultation with the design team, and no bleed is visible on the objects exposed,’’ explained Antonutto-Foi. The large lit surface also does not impact the strict conservation requirements of the adjacent objects, some of which are illuminated to 50 lux. David Harding, Principal Funder of the gallery and Founder and CEO of Winton added: “Mathematics, whilst difficult for many, is incredibly useful. To those with an aptitude for it, it is also beautiful. I’m delighted that this gallery will be both useful and beautiful.” The free to visit Mathematics: The Winton Gallery has been made possible through an unprecedented donation from long-standing supporters of science, David and Claudia
Harding. It has also received generous support from Samsung as Principal Sponsor, MathWorks as Major Sponsor, with additional support from Adrian and Jacqui Beecroft, Iain and Jane Bratchie, the Keniston-Cooper Charitable Trust, Dr Martin Schoernig, Steve Mobbs and Pauline Thomas. www.arup.com
