What’s a Gobo?
A gobo is a precision-engineered template crafted from durable materials like Custom Metal Stencils or heat-resistant Glass and Steel Gobos. Placed within a gobo holder in a focusing lantern (profile spot), it transforms ordinary spaces by projecting captivating images and textures onto surfaces. Think of it as a professional tool to project your logo, specifically designed to withstand the intense heat of modern Gobo Projectors used in London, Manchester, and across the UK.
Initially pioneered for West End theatre and television, gobos have evolved into a staple for high-end entertainment, corporate brand activations, Architectural Lighting marvels, and retail settings across the United Kingdom.

The Origin of The Term 'GOBO'
Some say it's a condensed form of 'go-between', symbolizing its placement between the lamp and lens of a projecting lantern. Alternatively, it's suggested to stand for 'Graphic Optical Black Out', a nod to its shadow-creating capabilities in early TV lighting and professional Gobo Design. In the U.S.A. and the United Kingdom, these tools were even known as 'Flags' or early Custom Metal Stencils. And who knew? Gobo is not just a lighting marvel used to project your logo with professional Gobo Projectors and Logo Projector solutions; it’s also the lead character from Fraggle Rock and a vegetable root also known as Burdock. Whether you are looking for history or high-resolution Glass and Steel Gobos, Goboland provides the best craftsmanship across London and the UK.
