WhiteNight Lighting Ltd is a lighting design agency born under the starry skies of the north.
The team has endless passion for creating unique lighting solutions that challenge the viewer. Our work benefits from the use of latest methodology throughout the design process, aiding both in the conceptualization and visualisation of the design. We strive to incorporate our passion, enthusiasm and playfulness into our creative work and are damn proud of our designs.
In our Scandinavian surroundings, light is constantly transforming with the change of seasons. Late in the fall, just when you think it couldn’t get any darker and gloomier, the first snow storm will suddenly wrap the landscape in dazzling white tones. Towards the spring, the sun clings on to the horizon longer each day, and come midsummer, sunlight has taken over both day and night with an overwhelming effect on all life. Our Northern homes have taught us to truly value the light and our passion towards our work stems from a deep understanding of light and darkness. Rooted in the season of midnight sun of the north, our values and philosophy are reflected in our company name,”WhiteNight”.

In my lighting designs, I wish to challenge the darkness with light to create contrast and contour. I’ve studied Industrial design in Rovaniemi, Barcelona, and Berlin before gaining my degree in architectural lighting design in Stockholm Sweden KTH ALD 2009. After this I’ve worked across Europe in lighting design in both large scale corporate level companies as well as in independent agencies. Currently I’m combining both of my passions, lighting and luminaire design, here at WhiteNight.
The Nordic light is a combination of extremes from endless days to dark gloomy hours. This unique variation of light creates an endless source for inspiration.
My career in architectural lighting design started in 2000 at VALOA design Ltd while wrapping up my lighting studies at Tampere Polytechnic. Over the years I have been leading a multitude of projects spanning from residential designs to city master-plans, both in Finland and abroad. After 12 years, it was time for the next step. Therefore, in order to pursue our own visions, we started the WhiteNight agency together with Joonas Saaranen in the spring of 2013.
Light in nature is my source of inspiration.

In the world of lighting design, understanding how light interacts with a space and its elements is vital. At White Night, we have incorporated an insightful tool that enhances our understanding of this interaction: the luminance camera.
Once the entire lighting system is up and running, our job is to fine-tune everything. This stage involves precise adjustments to the light direction, spotlighting the desired areas, controlling glare, and skillfully crafting the perfect ambiance.
Since 2014, our firm has been at the forefront of blending drone technology with 3D modelling in the field of lighting design. This innovative approach has transformed our projects, injecting increased precision, efficiency, and safety into our work.
