Blog Blurb


a matter of urban light is a design blog with the aim of exhibiting truly inspirational projects in landscape architecture and lighting within the urban environment. This blog will be created in tangent with my third year study of landscape architecture at Kingston University in London with the aim of hopefully moving into a career based on lighting in landscape architecture and the built environment.


i Hope the Blog is useful and interesting.

Berkeley Street and Dover Street short cut









The short cut by Jason Bruges Studio utilizes a well used alleyway in between Berkeley Street and Dover Street. The short cut consist of a short (8 Meters) and narrow (2 meters) passageway that appears dimly lit until one passes through the space when the rows of dimly lit up lighters light your presence chasing you through the alley. The project makes good use of the very intimate and hurried space, if walking through this space alone the lights act as a comforting ambience. But when the space is being well used the space becomes very well light with chasing lights crashing into one another.
