The gym and studios are lit with a combination of recessed 600 x 600mm LuxPanels and suspended Contour luminaires, and the entrance hall and Platinum downlighters.

“As with Callisto, these luminaires are available as fixed output, DALI dimmable, emergency back-up variants and Luceco’s wireless controls,” said the company.
