‘While sometimes simple in their geometric design language, scale and illuminance go a long way to play with the spatial interpretation of spaces and holes,’ he adds. Industrial materials are juxtaposed with neon, plexiglass and bold graphics so that each hole has both an identity but also real gameplay meaning. ‘Players lose themselves in a kaleidoscope of colour, light and music,’ says Dalziel. ‘Te course is intended to be a landscape of intrigue, discovery and excitement.’
Te large, comic book elements and vivid, in-your-face graphics that form the golfing landscape are emphasised with strategic illumination. Each individual hole has a perimeter-skirting LED floor wash to denote the boundary of the hole itself.
On hole three (‘Hazard’), LED colour-changing battens on sequence timers were used, and also positioned behind a variety of vibrantly coloured polycarbonate wall panels providing immersive colour for players. ‘Tis is a play on golfing terminology interpreted with high-vis reflective chevrons and pattern graphics, coloured polycarbonate walls, floor-length yellow curtain and light-changing battens,’ explains Dalziel. ‘Te combination creates by far one of the most vibrant, reflective and eye-catching elements of the overall scheme. If there was one way to play up a golfing term with light, graphics and reflective materiality it could certainly be this one.’
Hole five (‘Afraid of the Dark’), by contrast, plays with a lack of light, plunging patrons into darkness when a ball rims the hole on a missed putt. Te immersive dark box experience is made edgier with a variety of surface textures and undulating floor levels.
Internally illuminated signage, large lightbox type and colour-flashing LED light tubes add to the energy and physicality of the space. ‘A light carnival of colour and movement,’ explains Dalziel.
A 2.8m-high discreet – ‘almost unnoticeable to the eye’ – black track-and-spot system is used throughout, strategically located to allow flexible positioning of spots to highlight specific areas, holes and landscape features, as well as the necessary circulation routes within. Adjustable beam angles help wash wall backdrops and contrast colour flooring designs.
For the bar area, a simple 30m run of suspended and tangled pink neon rope light adds a graphic element, and together with the softer white globe pendant lights (dimmable for changes in pace from day to night) are reflected in the rose wall mirrors and white-gloss oversized menu gantry suspended above the bar. Conventional soft accent lighting brings out the brass edge detailing to the bar and the original brickwork arch shell. It is an unapologetic brew of colour, graphics and lighting; what Dalziel describes as a ‘spirited kaleidoscope of illumination’.
Above The essence of Birdies is fun – even the bar area is crowned with a plumage of neon pink rope
Right Shed wanted the bar’s lighting to bedazzle, confound and compel with a glitzy dynamism, as here at hole three of the mini golf course
