Vintage With Bright Goods LED Lighting

Innovative Filament Lamps offer retro-style
with LED efficiency
Leading LED filament brand, Bright Goods
announces the installation of decorative,
antique-style LED lamps into The Three
Guineas, a Victorian Fuller’s owned pub within
Reading train station. An array of hand-
crafted LED filament lamps from the Bright
Goods range were chosen to complement
the newly refurbished pub, enhancing the
many traditional features of the Grade II-
listed station building and showcasing the
contemporary interior.
Built in 1840, initially as the central railway
ticket office, The Three Guineas has
recently undergone a major facelift, keeping
the traditional railway theme but given a
contemporary twist. The previously unused
basement has been opened up to create
the Firefly room, an authentic and striking
vaulted cellar which has been stripped back
to expose the original brick-built arches.
The main bar and kitchen areas have been
remodelled to provide an open display kitchen
and quaint bistro tables adorn the outside
terrace. The pub is illuminated throughout
with an impressive array of Bright Goods
LED filament lamps that are housed in rustic
reclaimed pendant lights, industrial brass
cluster fittings and glass crystal chandeliers
to evoke a welcoming and mood enhancing
environment.
“The lighting is the standout feature in
each room” said Jayden Kopsala, Assistant
Manager at The Three Guineas. “It attracts
a lot of interest from our customers and has
helped create the atmosphere we want here.
We envisaged a contemporary look with a

classic feel to the pub and the lighting has
helped make this a reality, making the perfect
environment for all of our customers.”
On behalf of Fuller’s, The Light Corporation
was commissioned to survey all its managed
estate of over 200 pubs, and recommended
that low energy Bright Goods LED lamps were
specified for each pub.
Peter Turner, Property Director at Fuller’s
added: “We were very impressed with the
appearance of Bright Goods LED lights. They
provide illumination that is as warm and
welcoming as a filament bulb, maintaining
the all-important ambience of the pub in the
evening. It is also highly controllable, and
can be dimmed as required. It allows us to
maintain a traditional feel while reducing our
carbon footprint.”
