New Year 2019

Illuminart is a Detroit based lighting design firm with global reach for high profile projects, from sophisticated residential and hospitality, to advanced and technical lighting for massive scale venues like conference and events centres. The opposites in scale often inform each other which is important for fresh perspectives on what can be right for a project. Robert begins by telling us about how the firm creates innovative solutions to maintain their success as leading lighting designers. “Here at Illuminart, we continually attend lighting design and technology seminars and tradeshows both internationally and in the United States. We are active in both Interior Design and Architecture communities to keep abreast trends. We listen carefully to client wishes and create solutions that bring these ideals to light.” When discussing the success the firm has built over the years, Robert highlights one particular project of Illuminart’s which stands out from their impressive portfolio. “There are numerous examples to choose from, but recently Detroit’s own Foundation Hotel and Apparatus Room Restaurant have been wildly successful and was awarded one of the world’s top 100 places by Time. It is a Brightening Spaces Illuminart is a lighting design firm providing lighting solutions for a wide range of high profile projects.

Detroit gets it done, and well! This win gives us the opportunity to share our story and expertise with those who may not have heard of Illuminart. “Moving forward, we have multiple custom residential and high-end hospitality projects going, and expanding our international profile in the Middle East and Turkey. “Lighting is the MAGIC ingredient which is too often missed in otherwise great projects.
