Design Philosophy
​
Lighting design is about bridging gaps.
​
Bridging the gap between art and science; between imagination and reality.
​
In order to bring the visions, colors and rich worlds from the realm of the imagination into reality, a lighting designer needs to possess both an acute aesthetic sensibility and a wide knowledge of technical tools and systems.
​
And that is what Michael does, being that bridge, balancing that delicate scale of the sense of wonderment and pragmatism. Michael's aim is to create moments that will last long in the emotional memory of the watcher.
