1) Initial Consultation
In the initial consultation, we take the time to thoroughly understand your space and its intended use. Whether it’s a commercial, public, or residential area, we explore how lighting can enhance the overall environment, improving key elements like visual comfort, spatial legibility, and personal safety. During this stage, we collaborate with you to discuss your vision, the functionality of the space, and any specific needs, such as creating focal points or ensuring wayfinding. This foundational step helps us shape a lighting design that balances aesthetics with practical solutions, ensuring a cohesive and inviting atmosphere.
2) Design Brief
After the initial consultation, we move into the design brief stage, where we take your vision and translate it into a tailored lighting solution. This involves selecting lighting techniques, fixtures, and placements that align with the space’s function and aesthetic, ensuring compliance with industry standards. We focus on enhancing the sense of place, balancing lit and unlit areas to create visual comfort, and ensuring safe navigation and spatial legibility. The design brief outlines how lighting will interact with key elements of the space, extending its usability, improving security, and creating a welcoming environment.
3) Functional Layouts & Floor Plan
At the Functional Layouts & Floor Plan stage, we begin developing conceptual designs that offer a clear vision of how lighting will transform your space. This includes creating 3D models and visual representations to give you a comprehensive view of how light interacts with architectural elements and key focal points. By exploring various lighting techniques and fixture placements, we ensure the design enhances spatial legibility, creates a balance between lit and unlit areas, and highlights areas of activity. This stage helps refine the aesthetic and functional aspects, guiding the project toward a well-executed lighting plan.
4) 3D Designs & 2D Drawings
In the 3D Designs & 2D Drawings stage, we provide detailed visualizations and technical plans that bring the lighting design to life. Using advanced 3D modeling, we create realistic renderings of how the lighting will enhance your space, allowing you to experience the final look before installation. Alongside this, we develop precise 2D AutoCAD drawings, which include a comprehensive luminaire schedule, detailing fixture types, locations, and specifications. This ensures that every element, from placement to technical requirements, is clearly mapped out and ready for seamless execution.
5) Construction Stage
During the Construction Stage, we oversee the installation process to ensure the lighting design is executed as planned. This includes reviewing the progress, addressing any site challenges, and presenting luminaire alternatives if needed, ensuring that quality and design integrity are never compromised. All fixtures are installed in line with the 2D drawings and luminaire schedule, with careful attention to ensuring the lighting enhances the space’s functionality, safety, and aesthetic appeal.
6) Installation & Commissioning
In the Installation & Commissioning stage, we focus on final adjustments to ensure the lighting achieves the intended effect. This includes fine-tuning lighting levels where necessary and ensuring the design aligns with the space’s aesthetic and functional goals. We review the installation to confirm everything meets the project’s standards, ensuring the space is well-lit, safe, and visually appealing. Once adjustments are complete, we ensure you’re fully satisfied with the outcome, delivering a space that shines both in form and function.
