Publications in the UK dedicated to the wonderful world of illumination

Many architects, interior designers, developers and end users have an interest in lighting – and so they should, as Le Corbusier said:

“Architecture is the masterly, correct and magnificent play of masses brought together in light. Our eyes are made to see forms in light; light and shade reveal these forms; cubes, cones, spheres, cylinders or pyramids are the great primary forms which light reveals to advantage; the image of these is distinct and tangible within us without ambiguity. It is for this reason that these are beautiful forms, the most beautiful forms.”

He was right, without light we cannot see and appreciate the world around us.

Several publications in the UK are dedicated to the wonderful world of illumination, and as lots of people have asked us what we read as practicing lighting designers, we thought we’d put a list together for you:
