Light First
Social innovation through lighting
Socially engaged
iGuzzini is an international community at the service of architecture and light culture,
for a better life and society. It is a centre of excellence for studying light in its various
forms. It is a centre of excellence for the study of light in all its forms and it produces
lighting systems in collaboration with leading architects, lighting designers, universities
and research centres from all over the world. Respect for the environment, organic
well-being and sustainable economies are the key factors we focus on at a global
level to implement real progress in society. Light is first and foremost, for people, so we
are firmly committed to supporting local mayors and encouraging public organizations
and leaders of architecture, industry and commerce to use energy responsibly in order
to improve wellbeing and quality of life.
Lighting innovation
Social innovation means responding to emerging needs with new ways of cooperating
and networking. It is about producing sustainable ideas and identifying new tools for
putting them into practice. Light changes things. It is at the centre of social changes.
It is the expression of a new, vital energy that runs through cities, building architecture
and creating well-being. Light illuminates nature. It reveals worlds and relationships,
communities and mechanisms. And iGuzzini works to use light to improve the
relationship between mankind and the environment, through research, manufacturing,
technology and knowledge.
