Lights in Alingsås 2017, Sweden 

The Lights in Alingsås event begins with a workshop one week before the exhibition opens to the public. This is when seven international lighting designers gather with students from all over the world to illuminate selected sites in the city of Alingsås. Student electricians from the local high school are also involved in the workshop project by assisting the workshop participants throughout the whole week. The workshop teaches theoretical and practical knowledge in lighting design. The main aim is to have a professional lighting designer guide the participants through the complete lighting design process of an actual full-scale project.

Welcome to the Room With a View.
An inmersive experience that transforms The Lugnet into everybody's living room, inspired by the cosiness of the Swedish homes and their most distinctive feature, the window lamp. 
1: Look through the window and discover what’s on the other side. 
2: Sit on the “Bench of meditation” and feel the peace.
3: Walk around and enjoy the calmness.
