Leighton House museum, Kensington:

• AEC were commissioned to design, manufacture and install a series of sun louvres.

• Designed to mount onto existing domed skylights and to provide control for the amount of light falling on the artwork below.

• Made using cut shaped blades slotted in to the framework.

• Hand drawn before we had our CAD software, the compound angles made this design a challenge.

• Image on the right shows our special installation tooling.
