When looking into the incredible world of lighting, it becomes apparent why so many architects and designers refer to lighting as the fourth dimension of architecture. Light has the ability to transform our surroundings and allows us to shape the feeling, and identity that we want a hotel, restaurant or meeting facilities to embody. To make guests and visitors feel at home and at ease, it is well worth exploring the Scandinavian way of using light to create ‘hygge’ and how even the smallest changes with light can have a major impact on well-being.
Learn more about some of the best practices of designing with light in a selection of Copenhagen’s unique hospitality concepts with the Spacon & X architect, Nikoline Dyryp, and other inspiring experts.

50 Years of Colour
When we think of Danish design, highly saturated colours, indulgent fabrics, plastic and mind-bending shapes are not usually what spring to mind. Nevertheless, this is what Verner Panton is known for and what makes his designs popular, relevant and acknowledged today. The Panthella lamp was designed in 1971 and has become a true icon. It is a perfect example of Panton’s brilliant sense of atmospheric illumination and his ability to transform a room with his innovative designs.
Learn more about Verner Panton in this episode with stylist and colour specialist Nadia Schnack and other inspiring experts.
Framing Outdoor Spaces
Outside where there are no walls to define the space for lighting, the light has to be used to define the space instead. Light can be used to create imaginative walls, paths and landscapes and to construct an entirely new world visible only when the sun has set. Similar to the way in which stage designers work with light in a set design to enhance certain moods and feelings, we can use light to generate a sense of security, to affect behaviour and to create beauty in the real world.
Meet Christian Flindt, who talks about the design of his new post top, landscape architect Rasmus Astrup and other inspiring experts.
