Light 24 gives first look at 2024 programming
Light 24, the UK’s only dedicated high-end lighting exhibition, is set to welcome visitors to London’s Business Design Centre from 20-21 November.
Targeting professionals from all areas of the lighting, interior design, architectural and specification communities, the show offers a range of networking opportunities, a [d]arc talks programme and light art installations.
Light 24 provides a range of networking and socialising opportunities as visitors meet with exhibitors on their stands, enjoy late-night welcome drinks during the first evening, or take part in the popular Light Lunch on day two. For those looking for ways to more seamlessly integrate lighting solutions into hotel and hospitality projects, the event features hundreds of high-end international architectural and decorative lighting brands under one roof.
This year’s Light Lunch, taking place in the Associations Lounge on the Gallery level, will be co-hosted by Women in Lighting. Visitors will engage with a panel discussion on the Importance of Women’s Industry Groups for Both Men and Women. Speakers will include Carmela Dagnello of Ridge and Women in Lighting, Rachael Davidson of Smiths + Women in Architecture, Harsha Kotak of Women in Office Design, and Zoe Bonser of the Women in Furniture Network.
The talks programme will see over 30 design professionals from all areas of the industry speaking – lighting, interiors, architecture, specification and manufacturing. In association with lighting control specialist, Lutron, the programme will cover multiple key themes: Business of Design, Interiors + Lighting and Designing for People and the Planet. Visitors can expect to hear from experts from the likes of Perkins & Will, WeWantMore, MS Lighting, Hoare Lea, Artin Light, Dark Source, Nulty, AS Light, Palladian, Isla James Interiors, Light Collective, Orms, Cordless Consultants, WSP and GDM.
Light artist Frankie Boyle will introduce her latest installation, Intra-spectrum, powered by Formalighting, at Light 24. The installation takes inspiration from her recent explorations of consciousness and subconscious, playing with the harmony of reflection and refraction. “I want people to immerse themselves within the light that we shine and the light that we hold within, through an array of beautiful invigorating colours,” she says. “This installation is all about eliciting introspection and connection.”
