Bendigo Chinese Precinct

On Friday I had the pleasure of attending the opening of the Bendigo Chinese Precinct.  And, despite the cold, it was quite an event with amazing dancers, costumes and of course fire-crackers galore.

This project has been very collaborative – we have worked very closely with landscape architect Rush Wright Associates, council and other consultants to produce a lighting scheme which, we hope, does  justice to the project.  Of course, this never happens in isolation and we acknowledge the contribution of others who helped us to realise our scheme.

On the day there must have been 200 people braving the weather to celebrate the opening.  And I have to say it was looking fantastic.

This the latest in a series of projects Electrolight has undertaken in Bendigo.  Previously, we did the lighting design to Hargraves Mall, Capital Theatre facade and cafe and Bendigo Town Hall council chamber for which we designed a custom chandelier.  The common thread running through these projects is one of our most loyal clients Mr Don Goldsworthy from the City of Greater Bendigo whose support is very much appreciated.
