The consultancy’s only commitment is to its clients and the aim is to deliver creative, qualitative,
sustainable & cost-effective lighting schemes which meet the client’s brief and add value to each
project. Dogan believes working closely with the client and the design team is key element to
understand and address successfully the project objectives. Being an inseparable element of
architecture, lighting, should address the client’s needs, the designer’s vision as well as modern
codes, lighting standards and environmental objectives.
Lighting is an essential element for identifying the appearance, function and narrating the story
of buildings at night. From urban to landscape settings, lighting affects greatly its surrounding
environment. It is the responsibility of the lighting designer to identify the environmental impact
each projects bares and offer sustainable and energy saving practices.
Dogan Kozan consultancy combines creative thinking and technical knowledge to provide a total
lighting solution, including daylight, architectural lighting, bespoke product design as well as
assessment of the energy footprint of different scale projects; from small art based installations to
the large architectural projects.
The consultancy’s design work is supported by computer and visually aided graphics, sketches,
image references which help identify the project variables and communicate the design approach at
concept project phases.
During design development a more detailed technical lighting analysis is adopted which includes
British and European standarts, lighting and emergency lighting calculations, cost analysis and
evaluation of the design options. As part of a comprehensive lighting design package, the practice
is able to provide CAD drawings, detailed luminaire specifications and control schedules for
construction purposes. Dogan Kozan consultancy also offers support and supervision during the
installation of lighting systems, as well as commissioning and on-going evaluation of the scheme.
