Bobby Moore Bridge case study

At The Light Lab, we deliver fully managed design and build lighting projects, providing a single point of coordination across fabrication, manufacture, installation, and long-term system performance.

A key example is Bobby Moore Bridge, where we worked collaboratively with Dixon Jones, Speirs & Major, Quintain, and Wembley Park to deliver a complex architectural lighting installation from concept through to completion.

In this role, The Light Lab acted as the single point of responsibility, managing project coordination, fabrication delivery, installation planning, and overall project execution.


Our Design & Build Approach

For design and build projects, we take responsibility for:

  • Fabrication design and engineering
  • Manufacture of bespoke lighting systems
  • Installation coordination and delivery
  • Technical integration and site execution
  • Ongoing maintenance and support where required

This provides a fully coordinated delivery model, reducing the complexity of managing multiple suppliers and ensuring a streamlined project workflow.


Project Delivery Benefits

Our approach ensures:

  • Clear single-point project accountability
  • Consistent delivery from manufacture through to installation
  • Reduced coordination risk across multiple contractors
  • Accurate translation of technical requirements into installed systems
  • High-quality execution of bespoke architectural lighting solutions

Collaborative Delivery

We work closely with architects, lighting designers, developers, and contractors to ensure that lighting systems are delivered in line with technical requirements and project specifications across complex architectural environments.

We’re very proud of the installation at Wembley Park and believe its success is largely down to this collaborative ‘design and build’ approach, proving to us that the whole really is greater than the sum of its parts.
