The Lighting Booster

Expert Lighting Consultancy for Architects and Interior Designers

What is it?

The Lighting Booster is a compact advisory service that delivers clarity, direction, and planning confidence—so your vision can become reality.

In just one session, you’ll gain a concrete action plan and project-specific advice you can immediately apply. We help you avoid costly detours, cut through overthinking, and bridge the gap between design intent and execution.

Whether you're shaping a boutique hotel, a modern workspace, or a flagship store, this consultation offers creative insight and strategic lighting guidance to move your project forward—faster and smarter.

We help architects and interior designers translate their vision into light - ensuring the design works, both technically and atmospherically.

Is this for you?

  • You’re an architect or interior designer with a lighting idea — but unsure how to translate it into a successful, real-world solution

  • You’re looking for independent expert advice that brings clarity and improves your lighting plan

  • Support that accelerates your process, avoiding delays or costly rework

  • Clear technical and aesthetic guidance that ensures your design not only works—but truly shines.

  • A partner who thinks beyond the fixture—who helps you shape the entire visual and atmospheric experience.

You’re looking for:

  • Independent, product-neutral advice.

  • Clear, budget-transparent direction.

  • A check-in to know what’s actually needed, and what isn’t.

  • Support to make design decisions—on ceiling types, light effects, and integration.

Lighting has a huge influence on spatial quality, perception, and budget. But it has to be addressed early—ideally between the concept phase (LPH2) and design development (LPH3).

Independent

We’re not tied to any manufacturer or product line—our advice is unbiased and entirely project-driven. Whether you're working with existing fixtures, specific partners, or aiming for re-use and relamping, we help you elevate your vision.

Creative

We don’t just design with light—we rethink how it’s used. From subtle tricks to bold shifts, our “light hacks” explore how light interacts with surfaces, materials, and space to reshape perception. It's about revealing potential.

Responsible

We follow a cradle-to-cradle mindset—prioritising reuse, smart upgrades, and minimal waste. Whether you're relamping or refining, we help you build lighting strategies that are future-ready and resource-conscious.

What you get

  • Fast, expert consultancy that brings clarity and improves your lighting plan

What other say about us

Featured
LXSY Architekten – Kim Leroux

“Working together with Studio De Schutter on designing offices and co-working spaces has really enabled us to create a more holistic design that is both innovative and has a strong focus on human centered design.Where the standard lighting solutions only solve some of the users needs, Studio De Schutter simply comes up with fabulous design hacks which are tailored exactly to the users needs.
We enjoy working with Sabine and her team, because its almost like a rapid prototyping design session where we are coming up with new and fun ideas around light and design.”

Architerior – Isabella Dräger

“Licht ist eine komplexe Aufgabe und eine weitere Ebene in der Raumgestaltung, die wir als Innenarchitekten im größeren Umfang nicht leisten können. Das ist uns bei der Entwicklung einer großen Privatvilla (Neubau) schnell klar geworden. Für uns war wichtig, dass neben der guten Ausleuchtung der Räume, das Lichtkonzept auch helfen soll, die Räume zu strukturieren, bestimmte Bereiche zu inszenieren und Atmosphäre zu schaffen.
Dank Sabine und ihrem Team sind wir hier in guten Händen.”

Private client, apartment in Berlin

“The decision to solve our lighting needs through Studio de Schutter was absolutely the right one. Sabine and her team managed the whole process from start to finish, saving me from costly mistakes I would have inadvertently made, and all within budget. Sabine’s was excellently reliable, and regular and informative in her communication. I can strongly recommend their services.”
