Happy holidays!

Throwback to when we installed lighting for the Make-A-Wish Foundation's annual holiday campaign "Stories of Light" from 2004 through 2009.

We lit up the 14 story Time & Temp building in Downtown Portland for the month of December. The building was used as the money meter. Each floor was worth a wish($5-6k). We moved the Make-A-Wish logo up a floor for each wish funded.

To light the building, we used 3 Coemar Panorama C*c Powers, a Selecon 5deg HMI Spotlight, custom weather housings and tilt control systems with wireless programming from the street level. All located on the roof of a 5 story office building across the street.

We are proud to announce our newest gel color: R401 Legitimate Amber. No longer do LD's need to work with bastardized ambers that skew too pink or too green. This true amber is the hue everyone has been waiting decades for!
