Light technology encompasses the deliberate use of natural and artificial light in architectural and product design. Designers working in this area consider how light shapes spatial experience, material expression, and human perception within buildings and objects.

The community explores light through diverse approaches: optimizing daylight performance in fenestration, designing luminous structures and installations, using perforated and translucent materials to modulate light, and revealing architectural essence through strategic illumination of existing spaces.
