What is Lighting Design?
Lighting Design represents Lighting Engineering Design.
It is the Lighting Design that affects homes, shops, offices, restaurants, hotels, clubs, companies, indoor and outdoor spaces. A creative process and one of design through which a perfect lighting systemis created.
Lighting Engineering Design
Lighting Engineering Design is not simply choosing the right luminaires for the right space, rather it requires a combination of technical, aesthetic and experiential knowledge to be able to manage light flawlessly. In every detail and from all points of view.
Lighting Design combines lighting engineering with architecture, optics with colorimetry, in a creative and planning process, which leads to a lighting engineering project. At the heart of this flow is the Light Designer.


Lighting Design and Light Management
Light has a leading role in the design of any space: it not only brightens, but decorates, it brings emotions, and results in well-being. It is no coincidence that lighting engineering combines science and art to design light and guarantee maximum comfort, both from the point of view of functional and aesthetic needs, as well as visual satisfaction.
The lighting engineering sector, in recent years, is experiencing a strong growth and is influencing and changing the world of design itself.
Why is lighting engineering design important?
First of all, this type of design finds a fundamental balance between artificial and natural light to create a functional and pleasant environment. This is followed by the management of lighting products, of the position, colour, intensity: essential choices from multiple points of view.
- Architectural value: light defines the functional areas and enhances the structural characteristics of the spaces, especially if we talk about indoor environments.
- Wellness and Comfort: excellent lighting improves visual perception and creates an atmosphere capable of influencing mood and, in the case of work environments, people's productivity.
- Safety: correct lighting engineering design creates a safe environment and minimises the negative effects of eye strain on health.

Lighting engineering design to manage light in an optimal way.
