Developing a lighting concept: from strategy to dramaturgy
Begin by analyzing usage, visual tasks, and context. On this basis, you develop a lighting concept with a clear strategy and dramaturgy. In the design phase, you determine where the luminaires are positioned and what effect they are intended to achieve. During implementation, you assess technology, efficiency, and precision. This is how structured lighting design takes shape.
