Interior Lighting

Lighting has the power to shape how a space feels, supports daily routines, and enhances material expression. Our approach begins with an understanding of how each space functions. We craft layered lighting schemes that combine ambient, task, and accent elements, carefully selecting fixtures for their output, beam quality, and visual comfort.
Conceptual ideas are tested through mockups or visual simulations to ensure alignment with the intended mood. From installation coordination to final adjustments, every detail is calibrated to ensure the lighting not only illuminates, but also elevates the interior experience.

Architectural Lighting

Light plays a fundamental role in enhancing architectural expression - revealing structure, reinforcing spatial rhythm, and guiding movement. Our process begins with a detailed study of the building’s form, materials, and design intent to understand how lighting can support and enrich the space.
A comprehensive lighting concept is developed to complement the architecture, with careful fixture selection based on performance, precision, and visual comfort. Designs are refined through simulations and technical coordination to ensure a seamless integration.
During implementation, we work closely with project teams and assess on-site adjustments to deliver lighting that feels cohesive, intentional, and aligned with the architecture’s character.

Façade lighting

The way a structure appears after dark influences how it is perceived in its surroundings. We begin by understanding an overview of the building - its rhythm, dimensions, and materials - along with its position within the urban environment. Lighting is intended to convey character and detail with restraint, enhancing the building's features without visual clutter. Fixture selection prioritizes precision, efficiency, and minimal visual intrusion. Dynamic lighting and automated controls can be incorporated in projects that require flexibility or expressiveness, allowing the façade to adapt across different times and events. Simulations and on-site coordination help refine the design, ensuring the final outcome is both cohesive and contextually appropriate.

Urban & Public Realm Lighting

Lighting in public spaces shapes how cities are experienced after dark—enhancing comfort, safety, and atmosphere. We begin by observing how people move, gather, and interact to determine how lighting can support both function and emotion. The design is guided by the character of the place, with a strong emphasis on visual clarity, inclusivity, and energy efficiency. Fixtures are chosen not only for durability and performance but also for their ability to minimize environmental impact. Where needed, adaptive lighting controls can be introduced to respond to varying activities and schedules. Each scheme is refined through on-site collaboration and testing, resulting in public environments that feel balanced, welcoming, and responsibly lit.

Lighting for Heritage & Cultural Sites

Lighting heritage and cultural spaces involves more than illumination - it is about continuing a narrative with sensitivity and care. We begin by studying the architectural character, historical layers, and spatial atmosphere to identify what can be be subtly revealed in the space. This approach applies not only to nighttime settings but also to darker interior spaces where lighting helps enhance visibility and preserve emotional continuity during the day. Fixture selection focuses on low-impact, energy-efficient solutions that protect material integrity while supporting visual clarity. Each design is developed in close collaboration with conservation teams to ensure that light elevates the experience without compromising authenticity. The result is a lighting scheme that respects history, evokes emotion, and remains contextually and culturally attuned.

Daylight Integration & Artificial Lighting Strategy

Understanding the relationship between natural and artificial light is essential to designing spaces that feel balanced, efficient, and responsive. We begin by analyzing how daylight enters the space - its orientation, intensity, and daily shifts - while mapping out where artificial light needs to complement or enhance these patterns. The goal is to reduce energy reliance, minimize glare, and create a lighting experience that adapts to changing conditions throughout the day. Through simulations, material assessments, and visual studies, we develop integrated lighting strategies that optimize both comfort and performance. Whether in workspaces, cultural settings, or residential environments, our approach ensures that light supports wellbeing and aligns with the rhythm of natural life.

Lighting Masterplanning & Frameworks

In large-scale developments, campuses, and public districts, lighting requires a strategic vision that balances identity, efficiency, and long-term adaptability. Our service focuses on consulting design teams, developers, and municipalities on how lighting can support long-term identity, energy performance, and contextual relevance. This begins with an assessment of spatial, social, and environmental factors to help define lighting hierarchies, usage zones, and visual priorities . Recommendations cover fixture typologies, light levels, and control strategies to ensure consistency and operational flexibility over time. Developed under guidance and in collaboration with professionals experienced in dark infrastructure and environmental planning, this advisory approach supports sustainable growth, light pollution mitigation, and policy alignment. The outcome is a holistic framework that enhances the urban fabric while respecting its context.
