Lightemotion Throws Light on History at the National Museum of Singapore

Singapore - Mission accomplished for Lightemotion, the Montreal-based firm that created the National Museum of Singapore`s lighting design.

This project, which required overall expertise in the fields of architectural, museum and theatrical lighting and included multimedia techniques, entailed a delicate technical and conceptual exercise for François Roupinian and his team.

A genuine tour de force, the project was carried out in close cooperation with GSM Design - a branch of GSM, a Canadian firm specializing in exhibition design and multimedia presentations.

The National Museum of Singapore, recently renovated and expanded, is now the largest museum in the Malayan peninsula.

Its main mission being the interpretation of the country`s history, the museum offers visitors a dual track: on one, the visitor can review the country`s official record and, on the other, get to know the more intimate story of its inhabitants.

In short, the museum presents a large historical fresco told by means of a series of theatrical settings that recreate various periods.
