The Design Symposia at LIGHTFAIR® International (LFI), the world’s
largest annual architectural and commercial lighting trade show and
conference, each offer 90 minutes of knowledge from the design
community’s leading experts. The Design Symposia create a global stage
for architects, designers and innovators to share their work and their
vision. The trade show opens Wednesday, May 9, 2012 at the Las Vegas
Convention Center in Las Vegas and the Design Symposia take place on
Thursday, May 10, 2012.
2012 Design Symposia include:
• Healthcare Lighting: Cleveland Clinic Case Study (8:30am-10:00am) –
John D'Angelo, PE, CMVP, Senior Director of Facilities, Cleveland Clinic
Principally through lighting conversion projects, Cleveland Clinic has
achieved a 20% reduction in energy usage over the last four years while
improving patient outcomes, patient safety and patient experience.
• Light Spaces Wright Places (10:30am-12:00pm) – Lira Luis, AIA, RIBA,
LEED AP BD+C, Principal Architect, atelier lira luis, LLC
Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesin became an illustration of daylighting
strategies. Luis discusses her experience living at one of America's
architectural landmarks and how this demonstrates the value of defining
architectural spaces with light.
• Creating Choreographed Experiences: A Sensory Exploration of Interiors
(2:00pm-3:30pm) – Zia Hansen, AIA, NCARB, Associate Senior Designer,
Wimberly Interiors (WATG)
Great design explores, investigates and exploits the power and magic of
light and spatial volume to create daring, seductive and enhancing
experiences. A designer’s goal is to exploit the characteristics of the
space, location and theme being evoked.

This course will be an overview of hospitality lighting design from the
interior designer's perspective, using images and documentation from
