Here in Vancouver, BC, we are shaking off a cool, wet winter and embracing the light that spring brings us. Each year the sunshine reminds us just how important light is in our lives. As humans, we too feel solar-powered. 

Reviewing some Barrisol projects recently we found ourselves admiring two installations form the UK. We imagine, like us in Vancouver, BC, those in the UK must also hold light in high regard.​​

The project below features an impressive sculptural design, which includes Barrisol Lumiere fabric.​ Our compliments to PLP Architecture for this impressive installation. It is located at 22 Bishopsgate London, UK. ​​​​Watch the video here.

​​The following installation, by Stiff + Trevillion Architects, at 40 Bank Street, London UK, is a perfect example of how Barrisol can be implemented to create a skylight effect using backlit translucent Barrisol sheeting. ​​​​Watch the video here.

​​No matter the weather outside, Barrisol Lumiere can bring light into your space.

This month welcomes the Year of the Tiger. Did you know that in 2010 Barrisol Sydney installed two Barrisol Lunar Tigers in Australia for the Lunar New Year? Here are the details below, courtesy of Barrisol.com.

Barrisol Tigers - Australia

Customs House was the home for two 8mtr long by 2.5 mtr high Chinese Lanterns in the shape of a Tiger designed by LAVA and realized by Barrisol Sydney. These wire framed tigers were covered in our Barrisol "Orange Coulouma" and internally lit with the help from Sydney based lighting consultant "XENIAN" lighting – weighing only 200kg each. The crouching digital tigers combine ancient lantern making methods with cutting edge digital design and fabrication technology, bringing east and west together through tradition and innovation.

Since celebrating Chinese New Year in Sydney 2010, the tigers have been adopted by the World Wild Fund (WWF) for the international Year of the Tiger campaign to raise awareness about the endangered status of tigers. With the WWF the LAVA designed Barrisol Tigers have led a world tour, moving onto Kuala Lumpur and Berlin. Most recently the Tigers have been on tour in the USA tour as part of G'Day USA.

We came across this video recently and wanted to share it with you. It's an excellent example of Barrisol's versatility not just as a ceiling material but also for 3D sculptural elements. Congratulations to Barrisol ​Mutiara and Hendro Prasetyo and Charlie Hearn for this fabulous design.
