House of Fraser, Cardiff

The whole scheme is confined to the flat modern soffits — the plain plaster planes behind the colonnade, the undersides of the galleries, the suspended ceilings over the perimeter floors — and nothing is cut into the cornices, the balustrades or the vault. RL-PNL2762 at 1195 × 295 does the ambient layer, run in rows across those soffits: a long thin module suits a narrow gallery underside in a way a 600 square does not, and a flat recessed panel adds no visible depth to a ceiling that is already being asked to disappear. RL-TR1417 on RL-NWTRK does the selling. Track is not a convenience in a department store, it is the only honest answer — the floor plan is re-merchandised several times a year, concessions move, and a fixed downlight grid would commit the building to a layout that will be wrong by the next season. The white finish matters against cream plaster for the same reason it did in a gallery: a row of black heads under a listed ceiling reads as equipment. CRI above 90 and beams from 15° to 36° cover the range from a single mannequin to a full rail.
