SOUND+VISION FACADE, NATIONAL SCIENCE AND MEDIA MUSEUM, BRADFORD, UK

Sound and Vision at the National Science and Media Museum reopened after a £6 million refurbishment, introducing two major new galleries in the heart of Bradford, UK. Alongside a programme of activities, the spaces showcase highlights from world-class collections of photography, film, television, animation, videogames, and sound technologies. We designed colour-changing facade grazing lights to enhance the museum’s nighttime presence. With improved DMX controls and hues, the lighting beautifully complements the interior design. The dynamic lighting also aims to celebrate Bradford 2025, aligning with the UK City of Culture’s vibrant palette.
