Edinburgh Airport’s iconic air traffic control tower stands as one of Scotland’s most recognisable aviation landmarks. Blackmoon Lighting was entrusted with the task of redesigning and delivering a new exterior lighting scheme that would modernise the tower’s appearance, significantly reduce operational energy costs, and provide a versatile platform for year-round colour and thematic programming.
The result is a striking, energy-efficient installation that strengthens the airport’s visual identity and transforms the tower into a dynamic canvas for events, campaigns, and seasonal celebrations.
Supported by a modern, intuitive control system, the new scheme offers seamless flexibility and reliable performance. With the main RGB floodlights supplied with a 20-year parts guarantee, the airport can maintain the installation to the same crisp, high-quality standard as day one—ensuring longevity, resilience, and exceptional visual impact for many years to come.
