Recently installed and programmed this dramatic elevation of LiTraCon, LED lighting and natural stone has been excitedly anticipated since the first trials were seen. The light transmitting concrete has both an organic and high tech quality. Set within the entrance atrium SEAM is programmed with a series of light shows that will animate the entrance and act as a marker.

Working as part of the Design Team with Ryder Architects, this scheme evolved out of my desire to create a work integrated into the fabric of the building. The rock face presence has its origins in the long mining history of the town, transforming a load bearing wall.
