Illuminated decorations of buildings and structures for the New Year holidays

Analysis of possible ways and devices of New Year's light decoration of buildings and structures, indicating approximate prices for materials and work.

Why is this needed?

Currently, with high competition in the market of goods and services, the decoration of their facilities and retail space is becoming a must. Such actions carry not only aesthetic meaning, but lead to a competitive advantage, because competently designed trading equipment serves the purpose of further promoting your brand. You are one step ahead and the client flies like a butterfly on a light.

If you walk along the evening streets, then in 70% of cases this decoration consists of neon that is already boring to everyone, halogen lights and illuminated windows or signboards outside or inside. Someone will say that this is a classic, and it will always be popular. Yes, it is, but any new products in 10 years will also become classics, and the novelty element adds the necessary “zest” to any standard solution.

Which of the lighting equipment for decorating buildings and structures can be found today?

Any goal should be justified economically. If possible, you need to minimize costs. Therefore, we turn to LED and laser technology. These technologies make it possible to illuminate while minimizing the cost of electricity and materials.

1. 3D LED figures - represent a metal or plastic frame covered with a transparent film, with LEDs inside. There are monolithic figures made of transparent plastic or inflatable figures. Price depending on the size of 2000-10000 rubles.

2. Flexible neon - It is a transparent sealed pvc cord with LEDs inside. It has a uniform glow along the entire length, without visible light sources. Imitates neon lamps. It can have any color or several colors (RGB). Power consumption no more than 6W / m. The cord is powered by 12V or 220 V. It can be cut according to special marks, it is very plastic, it is used outdoors and indoors. Gives uniform bright light, is easy to install, safe to use. Diameter from 2 to 20 mm, length from 2 to 50 meters, price from 300 to 1500 rubles. per meter.

3. LED Strip Light - flat pvc cord with a self-adhesive back surface. Price from 200 rub. per meter.

4. LED lights with and without controller. The controller allows you to create various color effects. These are running lights, flowing colors, smooth rise and fall of brightness, etc. The price depends on the number of LEDs and the number of software effects. For example, a light curtain 2x3 meters, 490 LEDs - 3600 rubles.

5. LED trees - plastic structures imitating living trees, based on LEDs and light guides. Price depends on size and material. For example, LED spruce 1.5x0.6 m - 6080 rubles. Read more about these light decorations here: LED trees

6. LED duralight - differs from the LED cord "flexible neon" in that the LEDs are located at small intervals. As a result, running lights can be realized, i.e. “Duralight-chasing”, or constant illumination, “duralight-fixing”. A control controller is required. For design, duralight is more interesting than flexible neon. The price of the tape is from 190 to 600 rubles. per meter. The price of the controller is from 400 rubles.

7. Led panel - design solutions, which are various drawings, three-dimensional figures and designs based on LED components. For example, the logo of your company. Prices vary greatly, from about 15,000 rubles.

8. LED floodlights in various colors. They can create both a powerful light beam and a set of point rays - an analogue of the reflection of light from a mirror ball. Price from 2500 rub.

9. Strobe lamp - Lighting devices giving bright flashes of light of various colors. A very interesting effect to attract attention. Price from 140 rub.

10. LED fireworks - structures based on the frame, strobe of lamps and LEDs, imitating fireworks. The price depends on the size, for example 2x3 meters - 47,000 rubles.

11. LED spotlights - local lighting. Price from 400 rub.

12. LED screens - Demonstration of text, video, change of scenery, paintings, photos. Price depends on screen size and control controller. For example, 4x3 m from $ 40,000. A running LED line is much cheaper, for example, "Helio120-7.62" 12x72 cm, 16x96 pixels complete with a controller of 17,000 rubles.

13. Laser projector - a device that allows you to draw the images of interest to you in color on any object from the wall to the cloud. Awesome effect, such as in the movie "Duhless". Price from 31000 rub. (X-LASER RGB500-30ILDA).

14. Starry Laser Projectors, for example MK9 from 3000 rubles. etc.

How much is the work?

But all this was only equipment, there is still a design project and work. It is very difficult to determine the price for a design; perhaps you will complete the design yourself. Prices for electrical work are highly dependent on the region and can range from 50 rubles. per meter for regions up to several thousand for the capital. For example, throwing a garland on a 2 meter Christmas tree costs in Moscow from 2500 rubles.

I hope that after reading the article you will become clear on the main ways to improve the lighting design of buildings and structures. The New Year is approaching and you can show all your skills in the design of the Christmas tree. Please your loved ones and yourself beloved! Everything that is done with your own hands and with love will forever remain in your memory. Good luck in all your endeavors!
