Sentinel, Glasgow

After a meeting at Charing Cross this evening, I headed to Glasgow Central to catch the train home. As I walked down Douglas Street, I stopped to take a photo of the Sentinel Building on the corner of Waterloo Street. The lighting effect is really unusual.

In 2006, the building designed by Gordon Murray and Alan Dunlop Architects won the BCO Award for the Best Commercial

The building was designed with lighting specialists KJ Tait, a system using light sources at the base of selected windows on the building's frontage which glow at night and offer a continuous and changing spectrum of colour, from red to purple to blue to green.
