Light: Between Architecture and Event

摘要

Architectural lighting represents an important interdisciplinary field of design. It does not end with a simple technical study, but focuses on the collaboration between different fields of expertise - architecture, engineering, urban design and computer programming -to create spaces with an emotional impact. Architectural lighting takes advantage of the dynamic and chromatic potentials of light, together with new technologies of computerised control, to create environments that are animated by human presence. This field of design has produced, above all, temporary installations for fairs, cultural and sporting events, or business communication. However, as can be seen in the work of the studio LightLife, architectural lighting is also capable of offering a service, it can be applied to private and public signage, or create opportunities for breathing new life into neglected areas of the city.
