Colour Sound Experiment in expansion mode

2011 was one of CSE's best trading years to date, and 2012 is already looking buoyant

UK - West London based lighting and visuals rental company Colour Sound Experiment (CSE) has expanded its current warehouse facility by acquiring the building next door .... and knocking through. This increases the area to over 12,000sq.ft, nearly doubling the previous available space.
