Lighting and Projection to Guildford Cathedral

Guildford Cathedral's tower and nave give us one of the largest canvases we work on, a landmark visible for miles across Surrey. We were asked to light the building's sides and bell tower and project imagery and wording across its west front, turning a static facade into a message the whole county could read at once.

Over several return visits we've built projections for NHS thank-yous, the VE Day anniversary, Surrey Day and community campaigns like Surrey Drive, each one a different combination of colour, artwork and lettering across the same stone. Blue washes the tower most nights, and on the evenings that matter, it gives way to rainbows, union flags, or a single word picked out in light.

It's a relationship we keep returning to, because a building this size rewards precise, considered lighting design, and because every projection has to read cleanly from right across the city.
