In April 2026, we were engaged by Miss Wu to design and install RGB LED lighting for her office arcade at the Galaxis building in one-north, Singapore. The client had a vision of transforming the space into a more vibrant and visually engaging environment but lacked clarity on the technical approach needed to achieve it. As a licensed electrical contractor, we provided end-to-end guidance from concept to completion, translating her reference images into a practical and effective lighting solution.
The Challenge
Problem
The client had a general idea of incorporating RGB LED lights into the office arcade but was uncertain about several key aspects of the implementation. Specific challenges included:
- Estimating the correct length of LED strips required to cover the architectural features
- Determining suitable mounting methods for a clean, professional finish
- Ensuring the power supply could handle the additional load without overloading existing infrastructure
- Translating aesthetic references into technically feasible specifications
Reference images shared during initial discussions communicated the desired look and feel, but lacked the technical clarity needed for direct implementation. This uncertainty had delayed the project since the planning stage, as the client needed expert guidance before proceeding.
Solution
Our approach began with a thorough consultation to understand the client's vision, followed by professional recommendations on suitable RGB LED strip types, placement along architectural features, and the supporting components required. We conducted a site assessment to verify actual measurements and identify any constraints early on.
The implementation involved:
- Installation of approximately 21 metres of RGB LED strip lighting
- LED drivers sized to handle the power requirements safely
- Aluminium profiles for proper heat dissipation, durability, and a clean finish
- Careful routing and concealment of wiring for a polished appearance
The installation was carried out with careful coordination to minimise disruption to the client's daily operations. The programmable RGB system allows colour changes to suit different moods, events, or branding needs.
Key Results and Outcomes
The completed installation immediately transformed the office arcade from a utilitarian space into a modern, visually appealing environment that reflects the client's brand image.
Key Results:
- Approximately 21 metres of RGB LED lighting installed with full programmable colour control
- Higher energy efficiency compared to conventional lighting, with lower power consumption and reduced heat output
- Improved spatial perception, making the environment feel more modern and inviting for staff and visitors
- Flexible colour options that can be adjusted for different occasions or branding requirements
Conclusion
This project demonstrates our ability to bridge the gap between a client's creative vision and the technical execution required to bring it to life. From advisory through to installation, we ensured that every detail was addressed - from LED strip selection and driver sizing to aluminium framing and wiring concealment. The result is a cohesive, adaptable lighting system that serves both form and function for the Galaxis building office arcade.
