DNA HELIX LIGHT
Clients brief was t have a 600 diameter suspended light in staircase void over 7 meters, to replicate the human DNA Helix.This proved to be quite a challenge as the client wanted minimal wires exposed.
To develop the spiral effect we looked to various industries which could not assist us. We thus developed our own process to achieve the end results. Once this was overcome, the LED Lighting proved to be quite a challenge as it was a combination of Stainless Steel, recessed LEDs with a walnut housing.
As there was wind movement when opening the front door, special contact points had to be developed to compensate for permanent contacts on the positive and negative sides of the LEDs.
We used the LH and RH and side of the Helix as the negative and positive to have minimal wires exposed.
