lighting design
Artec Studio is dedicated to developing high-quality architectural lighting projects through close, proactive relationships with the design teams and clients. Shaping light, we create innovative lighting designs that enhance the architecture and its contents, while achieving the program and sustainable goals. Take a look at our most relevant projects.lights
Our lights emerge from the experience developed in our lighting designs projects and the study of the function and emotion of the light interacting with space and people. The studio, by merging research, technology and taking care of details, has developed new concepts of light. Our designs are produced by recognized manufacturers and have been internationally awarded.

Artec Studio’s lab is dedicated to exploring the most interactive, social, and artistic aspects of the light as a channel to create intangible and exciting light art content. This enables our team to shape the perception and cognition when being part of experiences, interacting with artworks, or creating identities through light.
Manacar Mall
Mexico City, Mexico 2019The lighting design for the 144 meter tall building was developed under LEED Gold certification for the facade, access, parking lot and the mall track. Each area has its own character which taken together reveals a unique identity.
The composition work incorporates simple economical lighting elements. The integrated expression of the lighting with the architecture emphasizes the interplay between light and the organic interior geometries. The dynamic facade generates a dialogue within the urban rhythm of the city's skyline at night.
Composition and expression are key to the sensory image which Manacar transmits.
