Moth Light supplied a range of luminaires for the Wellington Airport Fire Station, supporting a coordinated lighting approach across both interior and exterior spaces.
Externally, Flat Freddie 14 was integrated into the soffits, providing a clean, low-profile solution, while the Richie Rail 20 illuminated handrail defines the front entrance with a subtle, functional line of light. Within the surrounding landscape, Where’s Ben 25 contributes to wayfinding and site integration.
Inside, the lighting strategy centres around Bob Each Way 65, Downhill Dan 30, and Downhill Dan 35, which form the primary sources of light throughout the station. These recessed, surface-mounted, wall mounted and suspended profiles are used across a range of spaces including the kitchen, gym, corridors, offices, and locker rooms, creating a consistent and cohesive lighting language.
The Bob Each Way 65 profile is installed over the kitchen island and throughout key areas, with some luminaires fitted with RGBW LED strip and commissioned via DALI. This allows the lighting to shift colour in emergency situations, supporting operational requirements while maintaining a considered architectural presence during everyday use.
Additional detailing includes Tiny Tim 11 integrated into joinery, providing task lighting.
