Lumini Project

An extraordinary space of light and colour for extraordinary projects, places & people. Perfect for corporate gatherings, community celebrations, workshops, and wellness activities, our accessible Lumini structures welcome people of all ages, abilities, and cultures to connect in a uniquely sensory environment.

A Lumini is a smaller Luminarium designed to serve socially driven as well as private and corporate host organisations that wish to create a special offering to a particular community of people, an offering that will be enhanced by Lumini’s special visual and spatial qualities.

A Lumini is designed for use as a functional hosting space where the light and colour experience is not an end in itself but is a complement to whatever activity takes place inside. A Lumini presentation is always something more than the experience of the structure. Lumini are accessible to all, including those with physical disabilities and mobility issues. They embrace all ages, abilities, languages and cultures.

 

Activities within the Lumini requires the host presenter to programme the activity, advised and supported by AoA. The broad range of possible activity within Lumini can include performance, music, screenings, community celebrations, storytelling, corporate meetings, media & product launches,  workshops, movement, yoga, sensory, culture, learning, wellbeing and more.

If you are interested in hosting a Lumini, for more information, costs and for all Lumini enquiries, get in touch.

“There’s Something in the Air” was a Lumini Project in St. Ann’s, Nottingham focused locally to the Architects of Air workshop in partnership with local schools, artists, charities & organisations. The key targeted groups were children & young people, those with SEN/D & PMLD, elderly & local residents.

 

This video presents a project lead by Brighton based organization Brightonshed, an inclusive theatre company working with young people with various abilities and backgrounds, with the aim to develop inclusive, challenging and unique theatre in interesting places.

 

An extraordinary space for extraordinary events

Arts & communities

Architects of Air desires to support initiatives that use the environment of a luminarium to create a special presentation. The Lumini Project focuses on developing projects with socially driven host organisations that wish to create a special offering to a particular community of people, an offering that will be enhanced by Lumini’s special visual and spatial qualities.

The smaller scale of a Lumini structure is intended to make hosting financially and technical more accessible to partners who would not normally have the resources to host a full-size luminarium. Lumini collaborations may be initiated by the host organisation or by an animator or artist.

Private & corporate

Lumini have been used within a private or commercial context for various functions: an employee celebration, a new product promotion, a dealer reward event, a private music event or a media launch. The space can be used for its original intent, as an immersive space for clients or guests to experience, but may also welcome happenings inside as long as they match the functionality of the Lumini.

10% of proceeds for Private & Corporate work will go towards supporting Arts & Community projects that have limited resources.
