About
Tactile Light Architecture is a Rotterdam-based practice founded by architect and architectural lighting designer Farah Naser.
The studio works with light as an architectural design tool, integrating daylight, spatial organization, materiality, and electric lighting into a unified spatial strategy from the earliest stages of design.
With a background spanning architecture and lighting design across Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, the practice approaches each project through the relationship between light, perception, and built form.
The work ranges from residential and hospitality environments to workplaces, urban studies, and research-driven spatial methodologies exploring light as a form-giving element.
The studio approaches light as a form-giving architectural parameter rather than a final layer applied to space.
