The 2016 Show will be the largest to date, connecting innovative materials with a specifying audience of architects, designers and specifiers.

The three seminar areas are the Main Stage, the CPD Hub and the School Room. The Main Stage is the home of headline acts with topics that appeal across the design world. Associations presenting on the Main Stage will include Houzz, New London Architecture, SBID Healthcare Advisory Council and BIID. The CPD Hub sponsored by BCFA and BIID is a forum for professional development where visitors can gain CPD points by attending. The School Room, which is part of the Light School, provides information about lighting design and trends and is sponsored by iGuzzini with mondo*arc as the media partner.

Located in Light School, the School Room will provide architects and designers with education and knowledge about lighting design and lighting products. Many of the School Room lecturers will be returning for their second or third year and will also be joined by new colleagues. The plethora of lighting experts at the show will include David Atkinson from David Atkinson Lighting Design who will present ‘Diversity through Light’, Sally Storey from Lighting Design International – ‘How to use Light to Create a Retail Experience that re-enforces your Brand’ whilst ‘The Language of Light: a Creative Approach to Residential Lighting’ will be presented by Rebecca Weir of Light IQ.
