Barrisol offers a wide selection of colours and finishes, as well as a variety of methods to encorporate lighting, improve acoustics, and even encorporate custom logos.       This installation is a stunning example of Barrisol's backlit translucent fabric. In this case the light boxes are suspended, complimenting the other design elements perfectly. Congratulations to Architect Adam Freestone for this wonderful use of the Barrisol stretch ceiling system. During the months that we are unable to travel it is helpful to see new places virtually. The following video showcases the Barrisol Lumiere ceilings in the London Science Museum in the UK. Architect WilkinsonEyre. London Science Museum - United Kingdom

Architects: MHCS 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. Designed by Hendro Prasetyo & Charlie Hearn Visit them at: www.inspiralarchitects.com Barrisol by Mutiara Desain Group - Barrisol Mutiara www.barrisolmutiara.com September marks the return of the school year so we wanted to feature one of our favorite Barrisol school installations. Mulgrave School in West Vancouver features 14 suspended white triangular ceilings, 2 back lit leaf shaped ceilings, and 1 back lit round ceiling. The white triangular ceilings contain tiny micro perforations that turn sound waves into heat energy. Barrisol's micro-perforated fabrics are used to target adjust sound absorption and room reverberation time.      Mulgrave School
2330 Cypress Bowl Ln, West Vancouver, BC Design: HDR | CEI Architecture Associates Inc. Barrisol Installation: Barrisol BC The printed and back lit Barrisol ceiling, at the ARC Vancouver, can be seen in the recent Dailyhive.com news article, "There's now a surreal 200-ft high, glass-bottom pool in downtown Vancouver", by Kenneth Chan. Article Excerpt: "While the pool is certainly the centrepiece of the tower’s design, it is enhanced by a colourful ‘Ode to Canada’ ceiling design. During nighttime, the illuminated pool, with light bouncing off the ceiling, turns the underside into a beacon for the tower." -Kenneth Chan Photos: Dailyhive.com Article Link: https://dailyhive.com/vancouver/arc-vancouver-glass-bottom-pool-concord-pacific    ARC Vancouver 998 Expo Boulevard, Vancouver Builder: Concord Pacific Design: LIV Design Studio Architecture: Francl Architecture Barrisol Installation: Barrisol BC  Thank you to Barrisol Welch for another great video, showcasing the installation process for the Barrisol stretch ceiling system. This installations features a vaulted ceiling and back lit wall application. Barrisol's line of translucent membranes works effectively as light diffusers. Project: Museum of Anthropology at UBC Design/Architect: Stantec Architecture Ltd. Barrisol Installation: Barrisol B.C.  This is an excellent example of a create, and aesthetic, use of light. Location: Brandhorst Museum - Germany. "The Contemporary Art museum of Munich was inaugurated last May. Its architecture is based on a design and ecological concept. The architect Sauerbruch Hutton chose Barrisol Lumière® to light and enhance the exposed works of the XXth century among which the Andy Wahrol's famous paintings. Indeed, Barrisol Lumière® diffuses the light in a sweet and homogeneous way on the whole exhibition space. Furthermore, the Barrisol sheets are 100%, recyclable and are so perfectly adapted in this modern building turned to sustainable environment." - Courtesy of www.barrisol.ca.  2015 looks like it is going to be a busy year for the construction, architecture & design industry here in greater Vancouver, BC. Whether you are working on a small project....  or a large one...  we can add some light to your space with custom translucent Barrisol ceilings...  To achieve even back lighting we recommend either florescent tubes (1 ft from the Barrisol ceiling membrane and 1 ft on center) or LEDs. When back lighting with LEDs the quantity and the spacing of the lights will need to be determined by the specific LEDs selected.  To view more photos of back lit ceilings please visit our Lighting Gallery.
