Photon Is…

Photon Lighting Design is an independent, Oregon-based small business, with over 25 years of experience translating the art and science of lighting design into beautiful, humanistic and sustainable spatial experiences. We believe that good lighting is a right, not a privilege. We design lighting systems that positively impact human emotion, health and wellbeing while minimizing the negative impact lighting systems can have on our planet. We design lighting systems to evolve and adapt with our clients over time. We promise to design responsibly and provide collaborative, sustainable and creative design approaches that support and enhance your vision.
