The Peltz Theater within Simon Wiesenthal's Museum of Tolerance in Los Angeles, California received a needed face lift.
The lighting designers associated with the project are the notable Horton Lees Brogden Lighting Design (HLB). One of HLB's more famous projects is the award winning relighting of the famous Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles seen on the right. HLB have received a Special Citation award for the Peltz theater in this month's issue of Architectural Lighting magazine noted for their "exquisite uniform illumination and the sensitive use of color in a lighting scheme."
The real gem is the collaborative design of a coil drape metal scrim that runs along either side of the theater's wall seen here to the right. The scrim addresses both acoustic issues and creates a soothing moiré effect, enhanced by grazing color changing LED covelights. The intensity of the light cast along the scrim can be altered easily by coordination within the control system, alternating between ambient front lighting, or dramatic back lighting.
