Light Collective Profile
Light Collective is the next generation of lighting consultancy. Working inside and outside of the standard architectural design framework, light collective is fuelled by a passion for light, collaboration and creativity. Our aspiration is to understand, interpret and work with light in all of its contexts artistic, social, architectural, cultural and physiological. We believe that light is an openly accessible medium that can be used to engage and inspire others - both professionals and non-professional. Our objective is that Light Collective will become an umbrella for like-minded and inspired people to collaborate in a multitude of ways and in different formats. From architectural lighting design, art and film to education and professional development, Light Collective will become a home for, or the foundations from which, many projects can be constructed – all with our fundamental passion at their very heart: LIGHT. We aim to spread our enthusiasm and passion for light to all who encounter it whether this be through architectural lighting design, collaboration with artists, community engagement, light installations or film and other media.

So far missions have been undertaken in England, Scotland, Northern and Southern Ireland, Finland, Norway, Turkey and the Isle of Man and others are being planned for Lebanon and USA. 2 The idea has been developed with an open source approach and local design teams are always involved in the process. This year, for i Light Marina Bay, Light Collective from UK and Singapore’s whenlightswork collective are going to embark on the mission to ‘change’ the night time environment of 5 selected sites along the Marina Bay area, with five teams of tertiary students. Each team, comprising of 10 students each, will be working on design proposals for one of the five selected sites, under the guidance of passionate architectural lighting designers, during the 3-day workshop is scheduled to be held on 21, 22 and 23rd October 2010. 1 During the 3-day workshop, we hope to induct students into the mysterious world of light. Using simple tools such as torches, battery packed-lighting fittings, students will be given the chance to unleash their creativity in lighting design and witness the transformation of seemingly mundane and forgotten urban pockets into a mystical wonderland, through the play of light in space.
