Loca­ted to the south of Buc­kin­gham Palace, Vic­to­ria Sta­tion is the second lar­gest train sta­tion in London after Water­loo with around 1.5 mil­lion pas­sen­gers pas­sing through it each week. Right next to this is Vic­to­ria tube sta­tion, which since 2010 has been exten­si­vely moder­ni­sed, among other things with the new Nor­thern Ticket Hall below Bres­sen­den Place. As part of this moder­ni­sa­tion, the area around the sta­tion has also been rede­si­gned and enri­ched with the warm light of Selux Exelia light columns.

Vic­to­ria Sta­tion was built accor­ding to the plans of Robert Jacomb-Hood and opened in 1860. It acts an impor­tant trans­port hub, both for the many com­mu­ters from Outer London and South East England and for visi­tors to England’s capi­tal city. In addi­tion it serves as the Cen­tral London ter­mi­nus for Gat­wick Express and Gat­wick Sou­thern trains from Gat­wick Air­port. As a result, Vic­to­ria Sta­tion is a first port of call for many visi­tors to the capi­tal and is respon­si­ble for their first impres­sions of the mega­city.

The public space of the sta­tion fore­court illu­mi­na­ted with ele­gant light from an iconic Exelia light column by Selux. On the one hand, the optics system incor­po­ra­tes high-per­for­mance mirror optics for com­for­ta­ble anti-glare for exte­rior appli­ca­tions, while on the other it pro­vi­des effi­cient and vir­tually loss-free light gui­dance. The cylin­dri­cal shape of the lumi­nai­res and their black steel poles blend into the set­ting of the square per­fec­tly. The result is an open, clearly arran­ged space, which offers a high level of sojourn qua­lity for both com­mu­ters and tou­rists.

  • Exelia è la soluzione classica quando occorre installare un impianto di illuminazione in prossimità di edifici. L'apparecchio svolge una vasta gamma di compiti per il design in contesto stradale, la creazione dell'ambiente e l'orientamento nei centri urbani. La colonna luminosa può essere utilizzata sia come apparecchio stradale che per l'illuminazione di segnalazione. Un tratto distintivo dell'Exelia è l'elevata resistenza agli urti garantita da caratteristiche meccaniche di lunga durata.
