Design phase

Concept Design

Our multidisciplinary team establishes the overall strategy, storyline and artistic approach to be developed during the following phases.

Schematic Design

Our team develops and refines the strategy, storytelling, scale and scope of the experience, while defining, prototyping and evolving all the different elements that compose it.

Design Development

The evolution of schematic designs into detailed documentation. All of the different expertise collaborate in creating a final design that will later become a unique live experience.

Build phase

Production

Our emphasis moves on to creating, building, producing and delivering all of the assets of the project. Constant follow-ups of the overall progress are carried out to ensure quality control.

Implementation

All of the creative and technical elements of the project are merged at the site or venue where the experience takes place.

Construction

The lighting proposal is built. We monitor and supervise the ongoing works, to ensure that the final result corresponds to our design and meets the client’s expectations.

Commissioning

We ensure the installed system is fully functional. The lighting is programmed in a way that supports the narrative and creates emotion. All of the information necessary is hand over to the client.

Operation

On temporary installations, our team stays on site to ensure its smooth-running and daily coordination. On permanent installations, we train the local team so client has full control.
