Kumquat Lab is a light art studio based in Edinburgh. We create evocative installations for public spaces and cultural events. Inspired by the emotional power of light, we aim to bring people together and spark new collective memories.
With backgrounds in Creative Computing and Lighting Design, and a shared passion for light as a poetic and expressive medium, we founded the light art studio Kumquat Lab in 2021.
Our work embraces a minimalist aesthetic, focusing on streamlined designs that tell engaging stories and bring public spaces to life.
We coordinate every stage of the touring process, working closely with local teams to ensure seamless installation and de-rigging.
From music festivals to museums, from city centres to forest clearings, our work reaches diverse audiences across backgrounds, generations, and geographies.
We bring ideas to life, shaping each project with our artistic vision.
Collaborating with expert engineers and fabricators, we ensure the highest standards of design and craftsmanship.
