Spot On is a architectural Lighting Design studio based in Amsterdam. We enhance people’s lives by elevating the ordinary through light, to bring character, beauty & joy to spaces. Our unique design approach is informed by the playfulness of natural light and the techniques of cinema. We see things in a way that other people don’t and creatively apply our knowledge to produce quietly dramatic scenes & settings.
Our mantra is that Specialist Lighting Design is not solely the preserve of large value, or luxury projects; we focus on creating something special with minimal intervention. And we ensure that light and architecture are combined optimally.
Paulo has expert knowledge and a well-developed feeling for what light can do. At the same time, he is pragmatic, hands-on and communicative.
