The pendants in the Nave not only increased the footcandles by 325% but also provided light to the vertical architectural elements and ceiling.
Supplementary to the refurbished ceiling-mount aisle fixture, the Nave downlights provide an extended luminous experience through the side aisles.
Hidden above the architectural braces, refurbished spatialite LED floods provide a divine focus on the Chancel, Lectern, and Pulpit areas.
In the Narthex, the refurbished spatialite LED floods, concealed above the beams, provide a romantic glow to the medallion stained glass window.
The complete lighting package supplied an abundance of illumination on both the horizontal and vertical historical elements throughout the sanctuary.
