FRITZ FRYER LIGHTING

At Fritz Fryer we love the challenge and diversity of bespoke lighting design projects and have recently been asked to do everything from fairly classic office fit outs , to a Victorian House Museum and a huge chandelier made of bike parts .
By leveraging the expertise of our design team , the skills of our engineers , and our extensive British-based supply chain , we effectively bring the creative visions of interior designers and architects to life through close collaboration and we never know what challenge awaits us .
No two briefs are the same so we start with initial brainstorming and concepts sketched on paper . At this stage we need to consider the practical elements , size and space available , any potential issues at installation , such as maximum weight of the installation or inconvenient glass skylights etc . Having solidified the foundational ideas , we transition to CAD software to create detailed 3D models of the designs that allow us to effectively present the concepts to our clients , from which , we produce comprehensive engineering drawings that guide the workshop instructions . Typically complications arise at different stages of the project , meaning each component must be carefully reviewed to ensure that suitability as well as form and finish meet the highest standards .
At Fritz Fryer we collaborate closely with designers , architects , interior designers , conservators and curators as well as homeowners . Over the past two decades , we have cultivated strong , enduring , relationships within these sectors to secure many repeat clients . Our commitment to exceptional service has enabled us to maintain lasting partnerships with many clients throughout our journey but we also love to work with those on the start of their design journey in collaboration with local colleges and universities . The innovation that this brings to our team as we view our processes through fresh eyes is always remarkable .
The upcoming 12 months promise to be an exciting time for our team , marked by the launch of several high-profile bespoke projects . One element where we have seen huge growth in recent years is in restoration and reworking for commercial projects as companies embrace the need to reduce their carbon footprint and repurpose existing lighting but with a modern twist . We are working on some exciting new projects and designs and expanding our product collections into new areas and are particularly looking forward to initiating work on some significant hospitality .
