October is a time to give thanks. This month we would like to thank Barrisol photographer, Michael Maheux, for his expertise and patience. Her is a sneak peak of some of our recent Barrisol installations that we will be posting to our website soon.

Since our last posting we have gone from cool weather to a heat wave and a variety of temperatures in between. This reminds us how important it is to have a space with a comfortable climate.

Did you know that Barrisol®, the world leader in stretch ceilings, and Carrier®, one of the world leaders in innovative HVAC technologies, have combining their expertise to offer an advanced, silent and invisible HVAC ceiling solutions for heating, cooling, and diffusion? There is even an option to provide indoor air disinfection by UVC radiation with the Barrisol Pure Clim® featuring Carrier® products.

Here is an example of Barrisol Clim® installation at the Clinique Saint Jean Hospital in Brussels.

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.
