Ocean Terminal ( Leith Docks )


Project: Ocean Terminal
Lighting to complement Terence Conran's striking £120m Ocean Terminal in Leith was designed by Jonathan Spiers Associates in association with ALD.
The columns, which are conical and incorporate flat vertical tapered fin brackets, are all crowned with a blue LED beacon to delineate the boundaries of the Ocean Terminal site.
The light source for the lanterns, in single, double and triple head configurations, is metal halide. On the quayside the fittings used a blue metal halide lamp. This allowed a balance to be struck where a safe environment could be provided for the ground-level loading bay without interfering with the view beyond to the Firth of Forth. White metal halide was used on the quayside and car parks for its superior colour rendering properties.
The lanterns are designed to direct all the light downwards for maximum efficiency and a minimal contribution to skyglow.
Additionally, finger posts in stainless steel for interior use and mild steel for exterior use were also manufactured. These feature decorative cast aluminium 'spike' finials.
