Business of Light empowers individuals through education, training, and mentorship to grow and sustain the lighting industry and its businesses.
What is architectural lighting design?
Architectural lighting design is a profession coming of age; it is the practice of designing lighting systems to enhance the aesthetic appeal, functionality, and mood of architectural spaces. Public appreciation of aesthetically pleasing and technically adept lighting schemes in the built environment is currently blossoming.
What challenges do lighting designers face?
Many young designers do not have access to a valuable network of knowledge and experience, and may not possess the financial resources required to hire consultants to help navigate the waters of building and maintaining a successful business. Additionally, a significant number of established lighting business owners lack a thoughtful exit strategy or transition plan.
