Giant Santa Lantern Figure
Holiday & Seasonal · Feature figure
A large illuminated Santa figure built on a rigid internal frame with a lit surface, sized to be read from the far side of an atrium or a plaza. It is designed as the single piece a route is built around.

A centrepiece has one job: to be the thing a visitor walks towards. That means it has to be legible from a distance, which is a question of silhouette and contrast rather than detail. A figure that reads well from forty metres is worth more than three that only resolve at five.
This piece is built as a welded internal frame with a lit surface, sectioned so it can travel in a standard container and be assembled on site. The base is specified against the surface it stands on: a ballasted plate where it cannot be anchored, ground fixings where it can.
Position and scale
Seen from every floor
The classic use. Placed at the middle of a covered space, it becomes the reference point that every balcony looks down on.
Entrance anchor
At an arrival point it sets the tone for the whole site, and it works without a route behind it.
The thing people walk towards
Where a market or trail has a natural direction, this is what sits at the end of it and gives the walk a destination.

Planning the winter and New Year season
Where a feature figure belongs in a route, and how the three winter windows differ.
How tall can the figure be built?
Height follows the viewing distance. Tell us the furthest point a visitor sees it from and we will size it so the silhouette still reads at that range.
Can it stand outdoors for a full season?
Outdoor builds are rated for outdoor operation, with weatherproof enclosures and a finish that suits exposure.
How many sections does delivery involve?
Sections are sized for standard container loading. The largest figures usually arrive in three to five parts plus the base.
Can the pose be changed?
Yes. The pose is part of the build rather than a fixed catalogue item, though established poses are quicker and simpler to produce.
Planning a feature figure for a site?
Send the position, the surface and the opening date. We will reply with what is buildable in that window.
