Frequently asked

What clients ask before they call us.

Compare packages
What does a lighting design studio actually do?

A lighting designer decides where light falls, at what intensity, in which colour temperature, and how it layers across a space so the architecture reads as intended after dark. That is different from a supplier, who sells fixtures. The design comes first; the fixtures are specified to deliver it.

Which areas does Lail Lighting Design serve?

The United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia, from our studio in Dubai.

What types of projects do you take on?

Private villas and palaces, hotels, restaurants and lounges, retail spaces, architectural facades, and landscape and garden lighting.

How is lighting design priced?

By fixed project fee, by rate per square metre, or as a percentage of the lighting budget. The design fee is always quoted separately from the cost of the fixtures, so you can see exactly what you are paying for design and what you are paying for hardware.

When should a lighting designer join a project?

During architectural and interior design, while ceilings, coves, joinery details and electrical routing are still on paper. At that stage lighting can shape the architecture itself. Joining after construction still helps, but the available options are considerably narrower.

Do you supervise installation?

Yes. On-site supervision through installation, plus final aiming and commissioning, is included in the comprehensive package. Adjustable fixtures arrive aimed at the factory default, so a scheme that is never commissioned after dark is never really delivered.
