Jim Hepplewhite states: "We’ve seen our business expand rapidly in recent years, and the time came where we had to decide between being equipment suppliers or a design agency. With our projects getting increasingly diverse and needing such a wide spectrum of gear, we decided to make some changes." Paul O’Brien adds: "We’ve used Colourhouse for several recent projects. As part of the White Light Group, they offer the quality of service and equipment we need, and are backed by one of the UK’s biggest and best known lighting companies, so it made complete sense for us to work out an arrangement with Colourhouse."
Part of this arrangement involved relocating the Rainmaker offices from Bolney in West Sussex into White Light’s Wimbledon HQ. This will ensure a close working relationship with Colourhouse, although Rainmaker will remain a totally separate trading company. Rainmaker was formed in 1988 and has since established a reputation for producing imaginative lighting designs, and for supplying complete lighting packages to a vast array of corporate events.
