30 Sep Now on YouTube: Architectural Lighting – An Architect’s Perspective & Insights

Last week, BHA School of Lighting hosted an engaging and thought provoking webinar featuring Reem Nassour, Founder and Principal Architect of NAO Architects, and David Gilbey, an internationally respected independent architectural lighting and visual designer of d-lighting. Drawing on their extensive architectural and lighting design experience, Reem and David explored the creative relationship between architecture and light, sharing valuable insights into collaboration, design thinking, and the process of transforming ideas into meaningful, built environments.

Rather than a traditional lighting presentation, this session offered a unique perspective on how architects and lighting designers collaborate to shape meaningful spaces. Through project examples, professional experiences, and open discussion, attendees gained valuable insight into the ideas, challenges, and opportunities that emerge when these disciplines intersect.

Some of the topics explored included:
🔹 The architect’s perspective on light within the built environment
🔹 The integration of lighting into architectural design
🔹 Managing visual clutter and achieving seamless lighting solutions
🔹 Collaboration between architects and lighting designers
🔹 How design ideas evolve from concept through to built reality
🔹 The role of light in enhancing user experience and storytelling within space

A sincere thank you to Reem and David for sharing their expertise, insights, and experiences with our global audience.
