Lighting design is a growing profession whose
practitioners are getting more and more requested all
over the world. They plan, design, and execute lighting
projects in interiors, such as small rooms and intimate
locales, as well as on exteriors, such as huge parks and
buildings. Lighting design requires planning and specialized skills.
This is an
education where light, space, and the human being is in
focus. It will prepare you for this new and exciting
profession by combining everything that schools and work
places can offer in order to give you — the future
lighting designer — a solid foundation to build on.
The
lighting design education is run by
Sverigefinska
folkhögskolan (Svefi) in Haparanda, Sweden.

Notes about the
education
Studies will focus on lighting, lighting theory and
interior- and exterior lighting design, but they will also
consist of electrical theory, graphic design, audio
technique, and promotion/marketing. This is mixed with
practical lighting in various areas. The entire
educational process is based on creative and artistic
thinking. About a third of the entire education will go
into two periods of Learning at work, "LIA". During
these periods you will work with assignments at various
companies and, at the same time, learn more about the
lighting business in general.
The education is sorted into the following
moments:
| |
● Lights and
People
● Perceptions, lights and space
● Techniques
● Learning at work (LIA 1*)
● Design and visualization
● Complex lighting design projects
● Marketing and promotion
● Learning at work, including examination
projects (LIA2*) |
| |
* LIA = Lärande i
arbetet, or "Learning at work".
It is an integral part of the Advanced
Vocational Education and Training. Read more
about it here. |
When
your studies are complete, including two periods of LIA,
and once your examination project has been approved, you
will be given an advanced vocational education degree
for lighting design.
