Our approach
To cover the facade, measuring 60 meters wide and 25 meters high, our installers used 91,500 RGB smart leds. Through the Twinkly App the city of Sydney was able to create the perfect christmas decorations effects, in one of the city's busiest areas.
The results
This installation not only set a new record in the southern hemisphere but also became a centerpiece of the city's holiday decorations, attracting locals and tourists alike. The feedback from the City of Sydney and the general public was overwhelmingly positive, solidifying our worldwide reputation as leaders in innovativec commercial lighting installations.
