Ulfsunda Slott is a castle situated near Stockholm’s city centre in Sweden. It was built during the Thirty Years’ War and has been in the possession of private families, a prime minister, the county council and used by royalty during its history and is now privately owned again. Furniture from Svensk Inredning (Swedish Interior) Torbjörn Blomqvist, initiated a major renovation upon the acquisition in 1999. The 1600’s have now met the 2000’s in an amazing contrast. This castle is now ranked as Sweden’s number one luxury hotel, with facilities for art showrooms, conferences and restaurants.
Blomqvist, and the owner of design and installation company MegaElAB, Pelle Nyström had the challenging task of illuminating the castle by night. It was SGM Sweden together with MegaEl who proved that the bright SDGM P-5 wash light was the right solution for them. Just four units were needed for this fixed installation, which lights up the entire front and rear of the castle.
The illumination of the castle by night has been a challenging task for Blomqvist,
and for the owner of design and installation company MegaEl AB, Pelle. With previous tests of other equipment resulting in rejection due to the size of the fixtures and their low output, Nyström looked for an innovative solution and came into contact with SGM. The mounting positions were fixed on the roof of the adjacent annex buildings, meeting another obstacle of providing a powerful light output from a distance. However, as stated by SGM Sweden’s Mikael Uddh; “I had no doubt that the P-5 was the right product for this installation and it certainly overcame each challenge.”
Nyström was very excited about the W-DMX of the P-5 and comments: “I was stunned when I saw the output of the P-5 and it’s nice that it has built-in wireless receivers, simplifying installations in old buildings as Ulfsunda Slott, where pulling new cables are not always permitted.”
