Lighting design & light modelling.
Buildings, façades, sports fields, roads and bridges — lighting designed from first principles and proven in a 3D light model before anything goes to site.
Good lighting is measured, not guessed. Aurum’s engineers model every scheme in 3D lighting software, checking light levels, uniformity, glare and spill against the relevant Australian Standards and the project brief, then coordinate fittings, poles and controls with the electrical design.
The result is lighting that does its job, meets compliance on the first submission, avoids light spill onto neighbours, and uses no more energy than it needs to.

Frequently asked questions
What lighting does Aurum design?
Interior, feature and façade lighting, stadium and sports field lighting, roadway, street and bridge lighting, pedestrian and car park lighting, solar-powered lighting and emergency lighting, together with lighting control systems.
What is light modelling?
Light modelling uses 3D photometric software to calculate light levels, uniformity, glare and spill across the real geometry of a site or building. It confirms a design meets the standard and the brief before fittings are ordered.
Can you assess light spill onto neighbouring properties?
Yes. Aurum models obtrusive light to AS/NZS 4282 and adjusts fittings, aiming and shielding so sports and outdoor lighting meets its limits.
Do you design solar street and path lighting?
Yes — standalone solar lighting for paths, car parks and remote sites, with panels and batteries sized so the lights keep working through winter.
