“We are delighted with the new Picture Lights at Kenwood House. TM’s MasterLight has delivered everything we hoped for in relation to lighting the exceptional works in the Iveagh bequest, providing a uniform and gentle spread of light across the entire painting. We deliberately chose the contemporary design because its discreet profile allows the light fixture to disappear into the background, giving more focus to the works of art on display. As well as the aesthetics of the light fixtures and the light they cast, conservation and preservation of the collection are of paramount importance, and using TM’s technology and product flexibility enable us to set precise conservation light levels for the pieces on display.”
“All our display efforts would be in vain without the finesse of TM Lighting. The right light temperature, light source and angle of light, create the ambience and then allow you to see the jewels at their best. This year with the help of Harry Triggs we presented our ancient carved gems in a way that really brought them to life and caught the attention of both collectors and fellow exhibitors.”
“It has been a great pleasure working with TM Lighting to install new picture lights for the collection at Blenheim Palace, their advice and professionalism throughout the process of updating our lighting to their conservation-friendly and energy-efficient LED picture lights has been second-to-none. Now that the new picture lights are installed, our visitors and guides have commented on the remarkable detail and colours now visible within the paintings, bringing new life to the state rooms.”
“We knew the changes would be an improvement, but we could never have imagined how much of a difference the new lighting would make. We can now really see the depth of colour and detail in the paintings but most importantly, they are not over- lit and the atmosphere of the house has not been compromised.”
“We are delighted with the new pictures lights supplied by TM lighting for Goodwood. We gave them a very specific brief and they worked with us to create something that was both traditional in appearance and top class in its capabilities. We would have no hesitation in recommending them.”
“We had used other LED lighting solutions produced by other manufacturers and been disappointed by reflection and an inability to really light the entire work. TM’s lights, though, offer a complete covering of light which sensitively expresses the entire area within the frame and gives an outstanding opportunity for the appreciation of the individual work of art.
Visitors to Weston are thrilled by the difference that the TM Picture Lights have made, both in terms of the ability to see the works clearly in a conservation-friendly way and to the difference that the layered lighting has made to the aesthetic of the rooms themselves which now have a great sense of life and vitality to them.”
“There is no question that the TM Lighting team have a rare understanding of light, fine art and the needs of their customer combined. The TM service is testament to the reality that good lighting can completely transform and enhance a painting, and even a room.
I have been collecting for many years, and for the first time, I can enjoy my collection at night, as well as by day. TM Lighting operate with consummate professionalism and finesse. It’s a joy to watch the attention to detail they pay to each work of art – an art in itself.”
“I have for years enjoyed my paintings by day, but only now have I been able to enjoy them properly at night.”
“Dunvegan Castle is the oldest continually habited castle in Scotland, and the ancestral home of the Chiefs of Clan MacLeod for over 800 years. As part of our ongoing work to preserve the castle and its collection for future generations to enjoy, we have undertaken significant repair works to both the fabric of the building and to its interiors. We are delighted with the difference TM Lighting have made introducing LED picture lights to bring new life to the collection of important family paintings on display at Dunvegan. The colours are rich and vibrant, whilst adding atmosphere and warmth to the rooms in a style that is sensitive to the period of the castle and its collection.”
“It was great to work with TM Lighting and have their team involved in the space as their art lighting expertise really highlights and beautifully illuminates the hand-painted wallpaper to great effect. TM used crafty accent lights which bring out the rich and textured look which I wanted to focus on within the space. They knew just how to light the wallpaper in order to bring the jewel-box room to sparkling life.”
“If I had to pick one word to describe our new picture lights it would be: transformational. A myriad of details on some of our older canvases suddenly have been noticed by a whole series of people that have been walking past them daily for decades. The atmosphere created in the rooms by the lighting is warm and inviting, whilst at the same time inviting people to notice and observe the art like never before. The lighting has brought out details in the paintings we weren’t even aware were there! Thank you TM Lighting for transforming our perception of them. We are beyond delighted! Thank you.”
