Lighting design studio
We design lighting that shapes how a room is used and understood: a warmer room after seven, a shelf line that guides purchase, a single beam where attention should fall.
Lighting concepts for independent restaurants, boutique shops and home studios.
01
Three ways to bring the studio into your room.
Two or three abstract light studies for one room, delivered as boards you can pin to the wall. We fix the light level, the color temperature, and the one surface that should stay dark. You react to the light, not to a render of a room you do not know.
A short list, never a catalogue. Each pick states what it does in the plan, what it replaces, and the maintenance burden it adds. We prefer three or five fixtures that earn their space over a wall of identical downlights.
A room is used in shifts: prep, service, last table, cleaning. We draw the dial plan, what drops and what holds at each shift, and which circuit carries it. The room keeps its face through the whole night without a flicker.
02
Three concept projects, drawn end to end. Open one to see the full sheet.
A bar counter lit like the last hour of a long shift: low, warm, and aimed so the customer's hands are the brightest point in the house.
One wall, three tracks, and a dark corner that holds the whole room. The light moves with the exhibition cycle and never touches the glass.
A small work table, one pendant, and a north window that argues with it all morning. The plan gives each source its own shift so they trade hands rather than cancel out.
03
Three steps, drawn to the same scale every time.
We walk the room twice: at opening, and at its quietest hour. Walls get chalk points, surfaces get a temperature, and we note what the room already does well.
Two or three abstract light studies, not renders. Each sheet fixes one light level, one color temperature, and one surface that stays dark. You react to the light.
The final sheet lists the picks, the circuits, and the shift plan. You keep the dial plan on the wall and the maintenance card goes home with it. That is the closing.

Asked often, answered plainly.
No. Current Studio is a fictional studio built as a design showcase for Skootr. No real business, team, or address stands behind this site.
No. This page has no booking or inquiry system. The brief form assembles a plain-text brief and downloads it on your device. Nothing is transmitted to any server, and no appointment is made.
Rooms with a point of focus: a counter, a wall, a table. Independent restaurants, small shops, and home studios give the best briefs, because the light has one job to do.
The sheet lists the picks, the circuits, and the shift plan. It is a working document, not a catalogue.

Fill this in and the page writes your brief to a local text file. It does not reach anyone.
A bar counter for a room of forty-five seats, where the counter is the whole night. We keep the counter at 2700 K and let the rest of the room sit at half that. The customer's hands are the brightest point in the house, and the back wall stays dark on purpose.
The shift plan hands the two circuits to each other so the room stays even. The counter is lit so the customer's hands are the brightest thing in the room. The back wall stays dark on purpose, and the dimmer holds the handoff.
One long wall, three tracks, and a dark corner that holds the whole room. The light moves with the exhibition cycle: it changes as the work changes, and it never touches the glass.
The corner stays dark so the wall has somewhere to push from. The timer holds the shift, and the heads aim at the work, never at the glass.
A small work table, one pendant, and a north window that argues with the lamp all day. The plan gives each source its own shift so they trade hands instead of canceling out.
The window and the pendant take turns instead of fighting. The dimmer holds the handoff, and the table stays the same brightness through the change.
