bluebottle partnered with client Perigon Electrical to deliver Australia’s largest façade lighting pixel map! Using the Pharos VLC controller and thousands of Philips UNI fixtures, the installation creates immersive light and sound shows that transform the riverfront precinct into a vibrant, nightly spectacle.
Queen's Wharf
Brisbane, Queensland, Australia
“Philips UNI fixtures and our largest-ever pixel map made Queen’s Wharf a standout project, delivering a bold and immersive lighting experience for Brisbane.”

Customer challenge
Queen’s Wharf required a lighting system capable of elevating the precinct’s visitor experience while managing an enormous, complex façade. The challenge was to create coordinated, high-impact light shows visible across the river, with seamless control of over 120,000 DMX addresses and thousands of fixtures—reliable enough to run nightly and dynamic enough for year-round events.
The solution
bluebottle supplied and commissioned one of our most technically ambitious pixel maps to date. In partnership with Perigon Electrical, we integrated over 120,000 DMX addresses and 4,000 Philips UNI bar fixtures into a unified, high-performance system. The result is a robust, scalable platform that delivers immersive nightly shows and adapts seamlessly to major events throughout the year.
