The profession of lighting design is a relatively recent phenomenon. Still in its infancy, the multifarious aspects of its personality remain severed. This division is perpetuated by its practitioners who solely practice lighting design as a form of engineering or art. Instead of maintaining this bifurcation, L’Observatoire seeks a maturation within the field. To do so, L’Observatoire culls together an interdisciplinary method to merge the latest technologies with an aesthetic paradigm. Emphasizing a collaborative effort, the firm provides lighting design to such disparate spatial expressions as architecture, urban, landscape, and fine art projects. Advancing contextualism and specificity, L’Observatoire implicates itself in each stage of the design process to provide aesthetic and technical solutions particular to the needs of each client.
