Lighting design is the enhanced presentation of form and space.

Chris Ellis Lighting have used the latest advances in automated lighting fixtures to great effect in theatre designs around the world. These units can effect infinite changes of colour and texture at will. Fitting design now allows these units to be used externally to provide a series of stunning programmable looks to the exterior of buildings and their surroundings. Another area of technical advance is that of large scale exterior projection. Using the latest high powered units, full colour images can be cross faded or scrolled across each other to create powerful visual effects.

The Chris Ellis Lighting team, with 37 years of specifying luminaries, light fittings and lighting control systems, is free from commitment to any one manufacturer and ensures that only equipment with a proven performance is specified to realise the design brief.   Public buildings, prestige reception spaces, cathedrals, restaurants, gardens, private houses: all   can benefit from the experience that has enhanced productions in theatres and opera houses  throughout the world.

Our team offers a special mixture of professional experience - atmospheric and environmental design on the one hand, applied physics on the other - both imagination and precise calculation, because. It must be planned down to the finest detail. That is why clients prefer to involve the Chris Ellis team at the earliest stage, while there is still an ample opportunity to integrate the lighting scheme within the overall design and the overall design within the lighting.

From the definition of the desired lighting effect, right through to the fine tuning of the finished installation, Chris Ellis offers a complete lighting service for professional specifiers and private customers alike. A source of creative thinking and sound technical advice, sensitive to the priorities of other design disciplines and the constraints of a cost-effective installation. A full partner in the design team of any space that would benefit from visual vitality and variety.
