UMAYA Lighting Design is a multi-faceted design perspective focused on crafting illumination schemes that serve to not only complement architecture but also to enhance it. In short, it is our intention to shape carefully lit spaces that are not only pleasing to the eye but more importantly, create a sense of harmony amongst its occupants.

At UMAYA, we had the privilege of illuminating the MAAD Towers, a striking development in Makkah, KSA. This project features twenty-one towers that intersect and overlap, forming a monolithic mass reminiscent of a series of mountains. Our exterior lighting strategy emphasizes the towers presence and highlights their architectural elements, creating a stunning visual effect while maintaining a residential ambiance. A continuous wash of light to the soffit, achieved with fixtures concealed in small niches and grooves, creates a soft, warm effect that uniformly covers the surface. For areas with overhangs, fixtures mounted on wooden-like supports graze the exterior portion of the canopy, avoiding any light trespass into the buildings. The solid surfaces of the towers feature horizontal lines that break down the mass, creating a traditional pattern reminiscent of historical Arab homes. Wall-mounted grazers, deliberately aimed towards these walls, enhance this effect. Grouping light fixtures based on application and control methodology optimizes energy consumption and maximizes their lifespan. Our design not only enhances the architectural beauty of the MAAD Towers but also ensures functionality and comfort for residents and visitors. #innovation #technology #creativity #lightingdesign #architecturallighting #designinspiration #umayalighting

Our work on the Etihad Museum in Dubai covers 2.5 hectares, narrating the UAE's history from 1968 to 1974. The museum, near Union House, includes new and restored buildings, exhibition halls, a theater, and educational areas. Facade lighting highlights Union House with cool white light symbolizing the moon, while the Pavilion's subtle blue lighting creates a floating effect. Warmly lit columns invite exploration. The landscape lighting unifies the buildings, using original fixture styles in the Restoration Zone to maintain a 1970s ambiance, and contemporary elements in the Development Zone. A water fixture projects stars, encouraging interaction. Inside the Pavilion, concealed projectors illuminate the ceiling, and bird-inspired fixtures add dynamic visuals. The project blends historical reverence with modern technology, enhancing visitor experiences while preserving history.

The Emaar Boulevard project is a prime example of how thoughtful lighting design can transform urban spaces. Located in a bustling city center, the project blends functionality with aesthetic appeal, creating a vibrant and inviting atmosphere. The design concept complements the architectural grandeur of the area while enhancing the pedestrian experience. Key architectural features are highlighted with strategically placed uplights and wall washers, adding depth and character to the streetscape. Soft, even lighting illuminates the walkways, fostering a welcoming atmosphere with warm white LEDs that naturally encourage foot traffic. Energy efficiency was a critical consideration, with the use of advanced LED technology to reduce energy consumption and minimize environmental impact. This aligns with modern sustainability goals, ensuring the boulevard is both beautiful and environmentally responsible. A standout feature is the adaptability of the lighting. Programmable elements allow for changes in colors and patterns during special events, making the boulevard a dynamic and engaging space year-round. This interactive capability reflects the vibrant spirit of the community, keeping the area lively and exciting. The Emaar Boulevard project successfully transforms a central urban space into a lively, aesthetically pleasing environment, enhancing the quality of life for residents and visitors alike. #innovation #technology #creativity #lightingdesign #architecturallighting #designinspiration #umayalighting

For The Langham Hotel in Doha, we focused on enhancing its architectural beauty and celebrating its prime location. The facade lighting highlights the overlapping layers of glazed skin around the core, resembling flower petals about to bloom. Warm white shades, reflecting the colors of sunrise over the sea, create a captivating visual effect. The landscape areas are subtly illuminated with indirect linear lights that complement both the tower and podium. Warm color temperatures provide an inviting atmosphere, guiding residents and visitors through the outdoor spaces. Inside, our lighting design combines decorative, general, and accent lighting, creating rich, multi-layered spaces with a relaxed yet sophisticated feel. Custom-made suspended pieces, inspired by the interior design narrative, add character and depth to the main areas, enhancing the luxurious ambiance of the Langham Hotel. #innovation #technology #creativity #lightingdesign #architecturallighting #designinspiration #umayalighting
