The LSC Great Train Set Exhibit
Jersey City, NJ
The LSC Great Train Set Exhibit is a testament to the passion of its original owner, John Scully, and the creative problem-solving of its curators and The Lighting Practice team. The design team recreated the day-to-night scenes integral to the original installation facilitated by a DMX-based control system that seamlessly transitions between preset scenes. TLP also installed a custom-designed fiber optic night sky to recreate the original starry sky effect that was integral to the original installation.
The lighting design of the exhibit not only illuminates the train set but also enhances the architectural environment with innovative techniques. Spotlights embedded in reader rails offer targeted illumination, guiding visitors through the exhibit. Integrated toe kick lighting beneath the table ensures safe navigation while maintaining an immersive atmosphere. By strategically highlighting different elements, visitors are encouraged to explore and discover new details with each visit to the exhibit.
