Lighting design plays a crucial role in architecture, influencing how a space is perceived and experienced. For architects, integrating lighting design goes beyond meeting functional needs; it is an essential tool for shaping atmosphere, defining spatial hierarchy, and enhancing materiality. Well-designed lighting can accentuate architectural details, highlight textures, and create dynamic contrasts, all while respecting the building's form and purpose.

A successful project considers the interaction between natural light and artificial sources, ensuring optimal performance and sustainability. The strategic use of light can transform a space, guiding movement, evoking emotions, and reinforcing the design intent, whether through natural lighting strategies, energy-efficient solutions, or the careful layering of light to emphasize specific elements or zones.

Effective lighting design is an indispensable partner to architecture, extending the narrative of the space and contributing to its overall success.
