Huai Chun Liu, a seasoned lighting designer, developed a passion for lighting design at Chung Yuan University. With almost two decades of experience, she co-founded a successful lighting design atelier and remain committed to their craft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q1. Please give us a brief bio of yourself and your design background.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m Huai Chun Liu, a seasoned lighting designer with a diverse journey in the field. My passion for lighting design began at Chung Yuan University, where I earned my bachelor’s degree in interior design. Following my graduation, I serendipitously found myself working at a lighting design company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My career then took me to Europe, where I embarked on a transformative gap year. Upon my return to my country, I joined another prestigious lighting design firm. Over the years, I honed my skills and expertise, eventually partnering with a colleague to establish our own successful lighting design atelier. With nearly two decades of experience in the industry, I am proud of my enduring commitment to the art of lighting design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q2. What made you become\/why did you choose to become a designer\/artist?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My grandfather, an enthusiastic amateur Chinese painter, had a big influence on my early artistic interests. When I was a little kid, I used to tag along with him to important calligraphy and painting exhibitions. I even had fun scribbling with his brushes, which laid the groundwork for my love of artistic design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, when it came time for college, I made a more practical choice. Instead of heading to the art department, I chose the design department. My decision was driven by my somewhat down-to-earth personality, favoring a structured and pragmatic approach to creativity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following my university graduation, my initial career aspiration was in window display design. Believing that lighting played a pivotal role in this field, I decided to kickstart my journey by joining a lighting design company, where I could gain valuable experience and knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After several years of dedicated work, I found myself at a crossroads, seeking clarity. In pursuit of this, I embarked on a transformative year in Europe. During my time there, I explored major cities and attended various exhibitions. It was during these experiences that I realized my unwavering fascination with lights. This profound realization reaffirmed my deep passion for lighting, prompting me to decisively continue my career within the lighting design industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q3. Tell us more about your business\/company, job profile, and what you do.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Atelier Lumenplus is a lighting design consultancy that was founded in 2019. Our experienced designers provide professional lighting design services of interior, architecture, landscape, and customized luminaire design. We are a customer focused, innovative solution-driven company. Dedicated investment and attention to detail from concept to final stage is the consistent attitude we have always kept in mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q4. What does \u201cdesign\u201d mean to you?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Design is not just about dreaming up ideas and sketching out plans. To turn a vision into reality, you need to set clear goals and create a solid roadmap to get there. It’s a blend of both creative imagination and rational execution, and you can’t do without either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to beauty, it’s what you see on the surface. Striking the perfect balance between emotions and practicality, it’s the art of harmonizing sensibility and logic. The end result is all about the captivating effects and atmosphere born from the dance between these two essential elements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q5. What\u2019s your favorite kind of design and why?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lighting design is an application art of light, an art that connects light with life and its environment. How light produced is physics, what we see is physiology, and how we feel the environment we see is psychology. There are so many different layers and aspects encompassed to the intangible and illusive light, and that\u2019s why lighting design is so fascinating and engaging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
