We think differently.
We believe designers have a social responsibility.
We know that lighting together with design has the power to influence social paths and social attitudes.
This is why in all our projects we constantly look at local aesthetics and cultural values and dynamics that will help us not only deliver a functional design, but also a design that engages on an emotional level with the users.
Our approach is based on the use of light to engage, to re-qualify, to surprise, to stimulate social interaction, to enhance and complement architecture.
We are constantly looking at social and cultural local dynamics.
We strive to make spaces become places.
We distilled our many years of experience in the field and condensed it into one approach: our Light Follows Behaviour.
We design lighting as an overall experience.
We take into consideration the daytime as well as after dark appearance to ensure we create the right atmosphere for each space. Our small and experienced team work closely with architects, landscape architects and manufacturers to ensure lighting is a fully integrated and coordinated element in the design.
We use lighting trials and tests alongside sketches and detail drawings to ensure the desired effect and atmosphere is achieved. This allows us to develop a strong dialogue with the design team and client to communicate how light will interact with materials and finishes to transform spaces.
