Lighting Concept Office – Our Process for a Tailor-Made Lighting Concept for Modern Work Environments

An office is no longer just a workplace. It is a space for encounter, creativity, and identity. A well-thought-out lighting concept in the office is therefore far more than pure function: it shapes atmosphere, promotes concentration, and translates corporate culture into light. At Studio De Schutter we develop tailor-made concepts that bring technology and emotion into balance.

🔍 Planning: Understanding How the Space Functions
At the beginning there is always listening. We observe the workflows, talk with the teams, and analyze the architecture. Only when we truly grasp everyday life does a lighting concept office emerge that is not abstract but concretely usable.

🗺️ Zoning: Defining Different Areas
A modern office lives from versatility – concentrated individual work, open meetings, creative workshops, or relaxed breaks. Each area receives its own lighting atmosphere so that people can intuitively orient themselves and the atmosphere is right.

🌗 Scenes: Flexibility for Every Moment
An office changes over the course of the day. Therefore, we plan light in scenes. Activating light for the start, gentle moods for creative processes, or warm accents for evening events – in this way the lighting concept office responds to people, not the other way around.

🌱 Sustainability: Planning with Resource Awareness
Durability, modularity, and energy efficiency are our top priorities. We choose luminaires that can be easily maintained and repaired, and we pay attention to regional supply chains. A sustainable lighting concept office is future-proof and reduces the ecological footprint.

Identity: Light as an Expression of the Brand
Every company has a DNA. We translate this identity into light – through materials, accentuations, or deliberately placed dark zones. In this way, the lighting concept office tells a story that employees and guests experience equally.

🛠️ Implementation & Fine-Tuning: From Concept to Reality
A concept is only as good as its implementation. We accompany projects down to the detail, coordinate with architects and facility management, and check the light on site. Only when the right atmosphere is perceptible is a lighting concept office considered complete for us.

“A good lighting concept not only makes spaces visible – it makes them tangible.”

Sabine De Schutter

Founded in Berlin in 2015 by Belgian born Sabine De Schutter, Studio De Schutter reflects the strong belief that architectural lighting design is much more than just lighting up the built environment.

As independent lighting designers, the studio's focus is on user-centred design, because design is about creating meaningful spaces that positively affect people's lives. Studio De Schutter work focuses on creative lighting for working spaces, custom fixtures for heritage buildings to workshops and installations for public space.The studio's motto = #creativityisourcurrency

Sabine teaches at the HPI d.school, Hochschule Wismar, is an IALD member and the ambassador for Women in Lightingin Germany.

Studio De Schutter wurde 2015 von der in Belgien geborenen Sabine De Schutter (*1984) in Berlin gegründet. Die in Berlin lebende Designerin studierte Innenarchitektur in Antwerpen und Barcelona, hat einen zweiten Master-Abschluss in architektonischem Lichtdesign (HS Wismar) und studierte Design Thinking an der HPI d.school in Potsdam.

Das Studio De Schutter zeigt, dass es beim architektonischen Lichtdesign darum geht, Wahrnehmung zu formen und Erfahrungen zu schaffen. Für Studio De Schutter geht es beim Lichtdesign darum, eindrucksvolle Umgebungen zu schaffen, die das Leben der Menschen positiv beeinflussen. Der Benutzer steht im Mittelpunkt ihres Ansatzes und deshalb lassen sie und ihr Team sich nicht durch konventionelle Beleuchtungsstandards einschränken. Sie arbeiten eng mit ihren Kunden zusammen, um die Vision des Projekts und die Nutzerbedürfnisse zu verstehen und sie mit Licht zu akzentuieren. Das Studio De Schutter hat kreative Lichtlösungen für Arbeitsumgebungen, Lichtkunstinstallationen und kundenspezifische Leuchten in seinem Portfolio. Heute ist es ein vierköpfiges Team von internationalen Power-Frauen, die sich alle leidenschaftlich damit, wie Licht den Raum, die Erfahrungen und Emotionen formt, beschäftigt.

Sabine De Schutter lehrt an der Hochschule Wismar und ist Botschafterin für Women in Lighting (https://womeninlighting.com) in Deutschland.
