Tamlite National Memorial Arboretum Tamworth Retail and Leisure Case Study LED lighting

National Memorial Arboretum, Tamworth

The National Memorial Arboretum is a 150-acre site with over 30,000 trees, designed to honour people who have served, and continue to serve, the UK in different ways.

The Remembrance Centre is located at the entrance to the Arboretum. It contains exhibition galleries, restaurants and shops - as well as an architectural courtyard with garden. The Arboretum was named “Large visitor Attraction of the Year – 2018” by VisitEngland.

Throughout the Arboretum, a significant lighting upgrade was required to reduce energy consumption and improve illumination. This included meeting rooms, kitchens and residential areas of Aspects, the £8m events building which opened in October 2018. Tamlite Lighting specified a solution that combined style with performance for the building.

Residential

First impressions count. In the Aspects building, guests enter through a stylish lounge with floor to ceiling windows and picturesque features.

This building entrance is accented by a range of downlights and spotlights. This creates a stunning visual display for people entering Aspects.

The restaurant and residential space also benefitted from downlights, creating an attractive environment for visitors throughout their journey.

One of the major attractions drawing visitors to the Arboretum is the aesthetic design of the meeting rooms and customer spaces.

The new lighting system was designed to enhance the impressive architecture. As a result, the whole visitor experience is  truly memorable.

Energy Savings

As part of a business initiative to refurbish the site, energy saving was a key priority for the project. With the replacement of the previous fluorescent fittings, Tamlite luminaires helped the Arboretum to realise an energy saving of over 60%. In addition, water-resistant, IP-rated luminaires supplied for the kitchen areas ensured that maintenance costs were lowered.

Tamlite understands the importance of lighting in residential spaces. It’s crucial to make the right first impression, and building entrances need to be illuminated with creative, accent lighting. This is to impress occupants and grab their attention whilst being as energy efficient as possible.
