Our art and science


Sushi Samba Beach Club Doha and Sushi Samba Doha, photos above, provided invaluable work experience in design conceptualization while I served as a Senior Lighting Designer at ICRAVE. Under the guidance of Renee Joosten, Lighting Director, Gregory Merkel, Design Director, I had the opportunity to collaborate closely with Lionel Ohayon, the Founder of ICRAVE. This experience enriched my understanding of innovative lighting design in dynamic environments.
We are passionate about creating immersive experiences through the transformative power of light. Our team is dedicated to pushing the boundaries of lighting design to bring unique and captivating visions to life.
At Troland Studio, we believe that light is a fundamental element in shaping the way we perceive and interact with the world around us. Our expertise extends to a wide range of projects, from entertainment spaces to private residential properties. We are committed to delivering exceptional design solutions that elevate the impact of light in various settings.
​
​​At our core, we believe that the design of any environment flourishes when lighting is thoughtfully integrated from the very beginning. Light holds incredible power; research indicates that our pupils respond to imagined light, highlighting the profound connection between mental imagery and perception. While we prefer to be engaged during the conceptual phase of a project, we recognize that this isn't always feasible. Even in later stages, consulting with a lighting designer can significantly enhance the overall value and impact of any design project.
Our Services
​Our studio offers a full spectrum of services, from Concept Design to Construction Administration for both interior and exterior architectural projects. Each project agreement can be tailored to your lighting design consulting needs.
​
Additionally, recognizing the need for flexibility in our industry, we can also work alongside reputable lighting design partners to meet your requirements, even during busy periods, without the necessity of hiring full-time staff.
