This diverse design expertise makes ZENISK able to excel in communicating and delivering conceptually solid and detailed solutions for a wide range of project typologies.
ZENISK focuses on daylight, artificial light and absence of light. Our strength lies in the mastery of how light creates identity, clarity and spaciousness in an aesthetic and environmentally friendly way. We aim to create quality of life through good visual experiences, stimulating interaction and improving wellbeing. The projects we work with vary in size and type from the overall master plans for entire cities and towns to parks, public buildings, cultural buildings, hotels and restaurants, exhibitions, attractions, installations and performing arts.
The design process in ZENISK is clear and it is based on strong principles: the importance of context analysis and sociocultural implications, the attention to detail, the unique holistic approach to every new project striving to achieve innovative concepts and tailor made lighting schemes, and the high environmental awareness.
