about us

With the use of light, we enhance the character of a place and underline the strong qualities of architecture. Our bespoke lighting concepts correspond with the context while introducing an additional visual layer. Having users and their comfort in mind, we create unique experiences and a distinct atmosphere.

We provide comprehensive lighting design for projects of various scales and functions:, including public buildings, cultural institutions, exhibitions, scenography, façade, landscape and public space, interior designs and private residences. We also create artistic lighting installations and complement the representative parts of buildings with custom-designed light fixtures.

  • Kama Wybieralska
    Lighting designer and product designer, founder of aureola studio. With her background in lighting design, product design, visual identity, and a passion for architecture, she navigates smoothly across all scales of projects, paying close attention to the detail and always referencing established lighting concept for each project. Before founding aureola studio, she honed her craft in New York, where she worked as a lighting designer at L'observatoire International and Derek Porter Studio, as well as a product designer at Richard Meier Light.

    In her opinion, light creates the atmosphere of space and is one of the most important factors in how one perceives it.
