K, March 2024 – In the heart of Bristol’s bustling commercial district stands a beacon of innovation and sustainability: One Portwall Square. This groundbreaking office development,


adjacent to Temple Meads Station, prioritises occupant wellbeing and environmental responsibility in a post-COVID world. TRILUX, the renowned technical lighting expert, was pivotal in providing a comprehensive lighting solution for this award-winning project.
