About Lightwell
Lightwell produces multimedia for museums and other public spaces. From large scale video installations to detailed touchscreen programs, we can work with any combination of media with physical space.

We focus on media production, but provide a range of related services such as conceptual design, software/hardware integration and final commissioning that help realise complex projects.

Most our work is with designers, architects and large project teams in developing media projects that are integrated with public space.
