THE SLAUGHTERED LAMB

Case Study: Transforming The Slaughtered Lamb with Zico Lighting Control

Part of the Urban Pubs and Bars chain, The Slaughtered Lamb in Clerkenwell is a well-known hangout for those looking for live music, good quality food and delicious cocktails in a relaxed setting. Spread over two floors the venue has recently undergone full refurbishment, using Zico by Anytronics dimming and controls.

Based on the customer’s lighting schedule the team have recommended and dispatched the complete lighting solution, which was installed and commissioned by the electrical engineer on site. 

Zico Lighting Aquila LED filament lamps and GU10 spotlights were used to supply general lighting throughout the venue.

The entire ground floor system is controlled by an Anylight Control Centre, paired with Zico by Anytronics push-button outstations allowing for pre-set lighting levels to transform the venue from daytime to evening lighting at a push of a single button.

As a last-minute addition, the 24v LED strip was included in the basement bar, adding to the desired lighting effects under bar bottles. With help from the Zico by Anytronics Technical Support Team, the electrical contractors were able to make simple adjustments to the system changing the lower dimmed level for the LED tape to create beautiful optics resulting in a stunning mood scene, perfect for live music events.
