Co-located with

Light School

Light School is the home of architectural lighting and allows architects and designers to touch, compare and learn about innovative lighting and technology.

Co-located with the highly respected Surface Design Show in London’s iconic Business Design Centre, Light School sets out to educate architects and designers in the importance of the relationship between light and surface by bringing together leading manufacturers and suppliers with architects and designers looking to specify their products.

London is now the world's capital for lighting design specification, home to 101 lighting design practices (out of a total of 209 in the UK). Responsible for specifying for projects not only in the UK, but around the globe, UK practices secure on average almost 12 projects each abroad.
