Lighting Architecture
Light determines how we perceive our environment, in the way it reflects on surfaces and creates contours and shadows. Light exerts a major influence on people and their environment – in quantitative, qualitative and emotional terms. We regard lighting architecture as a combination of creative design and innovative technology.
A small, skilful team headed by our lighting architect Walter Moggio will carry out your project, whether you are using artificial light or daylight.
We begin by working in close cooperation with the architect and the interior designer to create a precise lighting concept, and then develop the technical solution for this concept and go on to implement it.
Aspects that we consider important:
- Light in the context of architecture
- Holistic lighting concepts
- Optimising visibility and comfor
- Dematerialized architectural lighting
- Careful use of resources
- The way light influences people and their surroundings
- Care, competence and continuity
Our services include:
- Daylight and artificial lighting concepts
- Indoor and outdoor lighting concepts
- Lighting with multimedia connections
- Daylight and artificial light calculations and simulations
- Support with architectural competitions, exhibitions, expert opinions and reports
- Owner's representation/second opinions on aspects of daylight and artificial lighting
We offer a range of service packages in collaboration with our specialists in multimedia, electrical, façade, spatial and transport planning.
