Smart-lighting design is a rapidly growing area of interactive and cross-disciplinary design that is defining new practices in the profession. SuperLux is an international celebration of the ingenuity and artistry of the latest lighting technology and the `Smart Light' movement. The book's three sections focus on projects that use light to animate architecture and media screens; new forms of lighting in industrial zones and public areas, including wayfinding and streetlighting; and interactive installations in urban spaces. Each section is punctuated by essays by leading experts and designers in the field.
