Crescent has helped staff at The National Trust garden at Trelissick to design a lighting scheme for over five acres of the garden as well as the iconic Water Tower.

Crescent supplied HID flood and spot lights from exterior lighting company Paviom and made extensive use of its own LED spot and linear lighting products throughout the project.

The modern National Trust garden at Trelissick, overlooks the Fal estuary, near Truro, in Cornwall. It was created within shelter belts planted 200 years ago and the Water Tower was built for irrigation purposes as well as fire-control. 

For ten days before Christmas these areas within the National Trust garden were open until 19.00 to give visitors a new night-time experience. Many of the trees and shrubs around the Loop Walk were illuminated. Some simply flooded with Metal Halide projectors from Paviom and others treated to LED spot lights with a mixture of white light and RGB colour change from Crescent to provide drama and interest.

The Water Tower has been floodlit with to create a striking first impression as the Water Tower is a Christmas treat itself having been gift-wrapped with a bow for the festive season.

In addition, at the entrance to the garden the interactive art sculpture ‘Doodle’ by Leolightdesign using Crescent side glow fibre optic cable to provided an intriguing welcome.

National Trust Gardens Manager John Lanyon commented “We were really pleased with the combination of floodlighting and colour changing effects that brought the gardens to life at night, together with the high quality of the equipment itself”
