Darling Quarter

Project: Darling Quarter, NSW | System: 65BEAM LED RGB/W DMX

Luminous at Darling Quarter, the world's largest interactive light installation, is the newest precinct located in the heart of Sydney.

The brief was to illuminate the western façade of the two commercial buildings which required each window to have a RGB LED linear luminaire located on the window sill. Due to the sizing of the windows KLIK Systems had to custom build and design each LED light fitting along with the DMX controller and power supply.


A DMX algorithm was also specifically created for this project to distinguish the white in video rather than the traditional method of having white in video made with RGB, this was noted as a world first. The White LED also increases the colour palete available including a range of pastels not able to be replicated by standard RGB fittings.

The beautiful interactive public art platform is active from sunset daily with special shows and public interaction from Friday through to Sunday with the public given the chance to “paint” their own digital designs through the website, touch screens or a dedicated iPhone and Android app.
