CASE STUDY

Architectural Lighting Installation – Victoria Station

Commercial

OVERVIEW

Thomas Nagy Ltd. collaborated with Network Rail to deliver a bespoke architectural lighting upgrade at Victoria Station.

The aim was to highlight the building’s historic façade while creating a warm, welcoming ambiance for commuters and visitors.

The design incorporated energy-efficient LED technology with programmable controls, delivering both aesthetic impact and sustainable performance suited to one of London’s busiest transport hubs.

4-week project illuminating one of London’s most iconic stations.

Energy consumption reduced by 30% with High Efficiency LED technology.

CHALLENGES

Integrating modern lighting into the fabric of a heritage-listed station required careful planning and execution. The team worked closely with Network Rail to ensure that the visual design respected the station’s architectural character while delivering enhanced illumination.

The project was also carried out in a high-traffic area, demanding seamless coordination to avoid disrupting pedestrian flow or daily operations. 

All work adhered to strict safety standards, with rigorous testing and calibration throughout the installation process.

Zero disruptions to passenger flow during the installation.

12 precision-calibrated fixtures integrated into the historic façade.

RESULTS

The upgraded lighting system has transformed the station’s appearance at night, adding depth and character to its architectural features. 

The improved lighting contributes to a more pleasant commuter experience while reducing energy usage significantly.

Delivered on time and within budget, the project reflects Thomas Nagy Ltd.’s ability to deliver technical excellence in challenging, high-profile environments.

Programmable lighting system allows seasonal or event-based customisation.

Improved nighttime presence without compromising architectural heritage.

Thomas Nagy Ltd. is proud to contribute to Network Rail’s mission of improving public transport lighting and infrastructure across London.
