After its debut at Milan Design Week<\/em>, the exhibition returns home in a specially reinterpreted edition for Barcelona Design Week 2025<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Curated by architect and designer Stefano Colli<\/em>, with scenography by Carles Novell<\/em>, Luce<\/em> invites visitors to explore light not merely as a function, but as a cultural expression, an emotion, a cityscape and a catalyst for ideas.<\/p>\n

Self-published design: a direct, free and artisanal approach<\/h6>\n

The exhibition features over sixty self-published lamps \u2014 unique or limited-edition pieces created outside traditional industrial circuits, either commissioned or directly conceived for end users. This approach, increasingly present in today\u2019s design landscape, reflects a new production ethos: closer, more conscious, where technology and craftsmanship coexist to offer solutions with identity.<\/p>\n

Among the standout pieces is BARCELONA, a luminaire designed by Antoni Arola<\/em>, recognised by many locals as one of the iconic lighting elements from the city\u2019s festive street decorations \u2014 now reimagined in a museographic context as an emotional symbol of urban light.<\/p>\n

An immersive landscape: light, matter and scenography<\/h6>\n

The visitor experience has been carefully crafted so that the space becomes a narrative in itself. Thanks to the collaboration with Simon<\/em> \u2014 a leading lighting technology brand \u2014 the exhibition incorporates a lighting system designed by Michela Mezzavilla (MMAS Lighting)<\/em>, which transforms how the space is perceived.<\/p>\n

The light shifts in intensity and temperature throughout the journey, enhancing the exhibition\u2019s aesthetic and narrative cohesion. The result is an immersive, sensory environment where every object shines with intention.<\/p>\n

Barcelona as a Capital of Lighting Design<\/h6>\n

“Inspired in Barcelona: Luce” <\/em>does more than showcase objects \u2014 it celebrates a uniquely urban approach to design. In doing so, Barcelona affirms its role as a European reference point for lighting design, with this edition directly engaging with Llum BCN<\/em> (6\u20138 February 2026), one of the continent\u2019s leading light art festivals.<\/p>\n

The exhibition highlights design\u2019s power to transform space through light, crafting new visual languages rich in meaning.<\/p>\n

An internationally minded initiative<\/h6>\n

Organised by the Barcelona Creativity & Design Foundation (BCDF)<\/em>, with the support of Disseny Hub Barcelona \u2013 Ajuntament de Barcelona<\/em>, and in collaboration with Simon<\/em>, the exhibition forms part of the Inspired in Barcelona\u00ae <\/em>platform \u2014 aimed at projecting the city\u2019s creative talent onto the global stage.<\/p>\n

Its journey from Milan to Barcelona is a reflection of the fluid dialogue between local and global, between craftsmanship and technology, between tradition and cutting edge.<\/p>\n

A design story lived through the senses<\/h6>\n

“Inspired in Barcelona: Luce”<\/em> is an invitation to rediscover the role of light in our everyday lives \u2014 to appreciate its ability to transform surroundings, to awaken emotion, and to tell stories.<\/p>\n
