Light Art
In this issue we have another award-winning Canadian project that highlights the interconnected, symbiotic relationship between plant life and fungi. We also have a case study from Ledvance on an outdoor lighting project. Beyond that: IALD and SALC are calling for speakers, a couple interesting products, and a few articles from the past year. Lastly, we have some exciting news: the next issue of Lighting Design & Specification will feature a familiar face in this spot as Line Goyette will be returning as Managing Editor!
Happy Holidays and all the best in the New Year!
