The practice spaces are located in a listed freestanding building. Working with the existing structure played a central role in the project: interventions in the building fabric were kept to a minimum to preserve its historic character and carried out only where absolutely necessary. The lighting concept follows the same approach: existing connections were largely reused, and track systems were discreetly integrated between the ceiling beams. Set against a white-on-white backdrop, the technical elements recede almost completely while offering maximum flexibility for a wide range of lighting scenes.

Medical practices often feel cold, functional, and impersonal. Here, however, the goal was to create the opposite: a practice that welcomes patients and allows them to feel at ease and relaxed. The lighting concept follows this guiding principle — soft, inviting, and warm. The client wanted an atmosphere that combines professionalism and care: a place where medicine and well-being are in balance. This was achieved through the precise coordination of the color scheme, light tones, materials, and lighting design.

Bespoke cradle-to-cradle luminaire development for Impact Hub Berlin.

In the open-plan and private offices on the ground floor, a combination of direct and indirect lighting ensures an even and glare-free atmosphere. Studio De Schutter relies on so-called "lighting hacks": price-optimised luminaires that are composed of standard components and are at the same time individually tailored to the project requirements.
The linear lighting fixture is made of recycled wooden slats, LED light strips for indirect lighting and diffuse light tubes, and combined by the lighting designers to create pendant luminaires.

Circularity in lighting design. Sustainability meets creative design within the architectural lighting concept for Impact Hub Berlin at the CRCLR House.
