Custom Gullwing Fitting           Client - The Ford Motor Company

The Centre of Engineering & Manufacturing Excellence is primarily an education centre for Ford’s junior workforce. Constructed over three phases, the centre comprises mechanical workshops, teacher training rooms, restaurants, a crèche, a hotel and a library, plus auditorium pods that break through the front facade.

  The internal street runs the entire length of Phase 1 & 2. Custom suspended twin gullwing reflectors were designed by LAPD. They use the existing manufacturer’s components to create a unique solution for this double height space.



To ensure the ease of transition from the outside to within, the design includes a replication of the exterior scheme. Emergency lighting levels are provided by miniature low voltage floods fitted to the base of the pendant.   Further contribution is delivered from beneath the cantilevered walkway.
