Round Table: Light for Life
The Light for Life Round Table presents an opportunity for discussion and analysis in depth of the role of light in integrated and sustainable design. The encounter, with the participation of international experts, explores the impact of lighting on the quality of life, human well-being and the environment, fostering a dialogue between scientific research and design practice. The training objectives include the analysis of the new frontiers of lighting design, with particular attention to the synergy between technological innovation and the needs of professionals in the sector. The aim is to provide participants with an up-to-date view of the implications of light across a broad range of applications, from human health to sustainability, promoting conscious and future-oriented design. Through the contribution of scholars and designers, the Round Table serves as a platform for exchanges of ideas between academic research and practical applications, stimulating a debate on lighting solutions that meet both commercial needs and educational and informational purposes.
