The Euroluce International Lighting Forum

Occhio Luna

Lighting takes center stage again at the new addition of Salone del Mobile in April 2025. And I am very pleased to learn that because lighting design is one of my favorite themes in every interior design project. And because I completely agree with what Carlo Urbinati, President of Assoluce of FederlegnoArredo says:

“Light not only makes things appear but creates atmospheres, depth and perceptions capable of interpreting architectures and open spaces..."
Oblo, design Paola Navone

Euroluce is back again this time with a new content-focused addition: the first international biennial “occasion” devoted to the central role of light in architectural design - the first edition of The Euroluce International Lighting Forum, being held as part of Euroluce 2025, at Rho Fiera Milano on 10th and 11th April. The Forum was presented as a world premiere in Munich, the first stop on the “Salone, Milano and Beyond” tour promoting the Salone del Mobile.Milano 2025.

Another reason for following what comes with it is the idea that "At a time when cross-discipline collaboration is crucial for tackling contemporary challenges, the International Lighting Forum will be a hub of ideas and visions that encourage dialogue, laying fertile ground for innovation."
