On this episode I caught up with Marcus Steffen of Marcus Steffen Lighting Design. You can find him online At mslightingdesign.co.uk or @mslightingdesign across the socials.

With his background in Mechatronics, and a decade of experience in lighting design, as well as lecturing, Marcus was particularly interesting to talk to. He is now the director of Marcus Steffen Lighting Design and spends his day working with a host of commercial and residential clients, interior designers and architects, making lighting design an integral part of any project!

We explored his design philosophy at MSLD, what makes good and bad lighting design, the impact of experiencing different strength of light at different times of day on our circadian rhythm, why control units (think light switches) are important not only for their ecological savings, but also for ease of control of the lighting system, and last but certainly not least, how becoming carbon net zero is a game changer in the lighting design industry.
