Linda Salamoun, a leading lighting design specialist, unleashes her creativity working on projects where she puts people’s well-being first.
Pioneering with lighting design
According to Linda Salamoun a good lighting plan is indispensable to any project since it puts people at centre stage in buildings. She believes that lighting goes beyond functional needs and should contribute to people’s well-being. “A well-thought-out lighting plan can reduce contribute to improved comfort and well-being. It can actually reduce illness and fatigue,” says Linda.
Architectural approach
The creativity involved also makes the work interesting. Linda: “Lighting should be visually appealing. I enjoy this architectural angle in lighting design. In projects I devise and design creative solutions in collaboration with architects, both technically and conceptually.”
" I am proud of each project in a different way. With each project, you delve into different facets in terms of light. That's where the challenge lies. It never gets boring.
Linda has to have a long-term outlook to her work since most of her projects are ongoing and varied. “For some clients our work is very technical while on others, for example for hospitals, we collaborate closely with the staff working in the building,” Linda explains.
Freedom
With a background in electrical engineering, Linda decided to specialise in lighting design in the UK. she is part of a handful of lighting design specialists in the Netherlands. “Lighting design has only recently been recognised as a profession in the Netherlands,” Linda explains.
Linda enjoys the opportunities for personal development at Deerns as a top lighting specialist. “We have the freedom to shape our career path ourselves at Deerns. We get the tools and opportunities to specialise and develop your talents.”
