A Case Study in Lighting

Press Release

Case Study House 21, 9038 Wonderland Park Ave, Los Angeles, Ca 90046

November 24th - February 19th, 2016

Los Angeles is a place where the natural lighting itself is so magnificent that people often take it for granted. Because the gift of beautiful light is so abundant, people have tended not to place an emphasis on exceptional indoor lighting.

We’ve come to realize, after visiting many of our client’s homes, that the architecture, design, landscape and art were extraordinary, and carefully considered, but, lighting was generally less prioritized, and track lighting was used extensively.

However, lighting can be one of the most dynamic design elements in a room. It allows you to create drama, or manipulate the feeling of a space. Lighting can be playful and fun; it can create a sense of weightlessness, floating in space or off of a wall or table.

This two-part exhibition—one focused on contemporary and one on historical—illuminates a narrative about the history of lighting, and reveal functional and sculptural masterpieces from the designers below. We aim to change people’s perception about lighting and turn them on to this under-appreciated design element.
