Home   >  Open Talent  >  Open Talent "Writing the History of Heritage with Light"
Date: Wednesday 19-03-2025
Class schedule: 7:00 pm to 8:00 pm
Location: Tech Talent Center (Badajoz, 73. Barcelona)

On Wednesday, March 19, at 7 p.m., we will hold a new session of our annual series of conferences on architectural lighting at the Tech Talent Center (c/Badajoz 73-77, Barcelona) with a conference by lighting designer Javier Górriz.

Ornamental lighting is not intended to facilitate a task or improve security. Its purpose is to attract the eye, highlight the essential and give prominence to that which the darkness hides. Javier Górriz, from his studio, understands light as a language with which we tell stories, reveal details and give life to heritage. In this talk he will show his language through three of his most outstanding projects: the Granada Cathedral, the Carrera del Darro in Granada and the Cerro del Molinete in Cartagena.

The speaker

Javier Górriz. Founder & lighting designer at DCI Lighting Design.

After 12 years as a manager in an electrical installation company, he understood that artificial lighting lacked professionals who studied it in depth. It was then, in 2013, that he decided to make a drastic change in his career and take the Master's in Architectural Lighting (MasterDIA) at the Polytechnic University of Madrid. There he discovered new skills that he had not known about and, most importantly, he found his true professional calling.

LIGHTING DESIGN LECTURE SERIES

This presentation is part of the annual lecture series of the continuing education master's degree in Lighting Design at the UPC School, sponsored by iGuzzini, Lutron and Vibia, leading companies in residential lighting.
