Lighting churches brings with it all the usual constraints and permissions that come with any heritage lighting scheme. With more churches than ever now acting as community hubs alongside their traditional roles, it is important a new lighting scheme acts to serve the needs of worshippers and those using or renting the space. At CES Lighting Electrical we specialise in the design and installation of lighting schemes for ecclesiastical and heritage projects. We consider ourselves fortunate to have designed and installed lighting for new-build churches and eleventh century churches alike, each of which pose their own challenges. For example, take St Matthias Church in Stoke Newington, north London (illustrated here). St Matthias is a Grade I listed building designed and built during the Victorian era by William Butterfield, the renowned Gothic Revival architect, and completed in 1853.
