LSBA Studio focuses on the exploration of light as a generative element in architecture. We investigate how natural and artificial light interact with spaces, creating a sense of habitat that enhance perception and experience. Our approach is rooted in understanding light as a medium that shapes both the environment and the rituals of those who inhabit it. Through careful experimentation, we design with light to reveal the passage of time. "Design as a visual edition of the space we inhabit through the valorization of the existing."
