Lighting Design International
Graham has been Creative Director at Lighting Design International since 2021, having joined the practice in 2004. With a background in product design, he brings a highly detailed and considered approach to architectural lighting, creating schemes, bespoke fixtures and lighting solutions that respond to both architecture and the people who experience it.
His work brings together extensive experience in architectural lighting, light art and fixture design, with a particular focus on creating schemes that are distinctive, purposeful and closely connected to their surroundings. Graham believes that every lighting scheme should have a strong narrative or a clear purpose: enhancing the architecture, enriching the visitor experience, and responding thoughtfully to the space and its users.
His portfolio spans, hospitality, luxury retail, residential and private superyacht projects, with award-winning work including Gourmet Pavilion at Wynn Palace Macau, Harrods Women’s Designer Wear, Studio Frantzen, London, Harrods Chocolate Hall, Harrods Fine Dining, Oxford Street Estate, Private Spa Ireland, Sunset Walk in Milton Keynes. His projects have received recognition from the Restaurant & Bar Design Awards, LIT Lighting Design Awards, IALD, FX Awards, Darc Awards.
Alongside his architectural lighting work, Graham is an award-winning light artist and founding member of GNI Projects, a two-artist collective that explores the potential of light art to enhance public spaces and engage audiences through creative lighting installations and light festivals.
Beyond his project work, Graham is actively involved in shaping the wider lighting community, speaking at industry events including Light, Darc sessions, Light Asia and LuxLive. He also contributes articles to lighting publications in his role as Creative Director at Lighting Design International.
