We are

Professional and Experienced

FOUR TO ONE`s planning team consists both of professional and highly experienced show lighting designers as well as of design-oriented architectural lighting designers.

This unique combination of talents consistently generates cutting edge concepts.

 

Why choose us

Knowledge, Experience, Passion

The objective of all of our designs and work in general is to achieve perfect harmony between lighting and architectural ambiance. The lighting is not meant to be regarded as an independent element per se, rather it is to be conceived as a unified whole.

Ideas, precision, Efficiency

Good lighting design starts with generating creative ideas, on which the processes of designing as well as of technical planning are based.

Understanding of Architecture

This is the main reason as to why the general part of the planning process is focused on composing optimal integrative solutions. Meticulous attention goes to even the smallest of details, from start to finish , of all our undertakings.

All Phases of Service

FOUR TO ONE`s professional lighting design encompasses all phases of service, from developing design ideas to the execution of intense project supervision.
Instructing & supervising light-focusing activities and the light-programming process by FOUR TO ONE's experienced lighting designers always leads to optimised results being achieved.
