Beyond Illumination: Sculpting Environments Through Lighting Architecture is the play of forms under light, but without professional design, even the most brilliant architecture remains hidden. I am Enes, the founder of Ween Lighting Design Studio. With over 7+ years of international experience across Istanbul and Milan, the global epicenter of design. I provide high-end, independent lighting consultancy that bridges the gap between architectural intent, technical precision, and human well-being. My background in Interior Architecture allows me to speak the same language as architects and developers. I don’t just fill spaces with fixtures; I design the "character" of the space, ensuring the light source remains invisible while the experience remains unforgettable. Why Collaborate with me? • Architectural DNA: Unlike hardware suppliers, I analyze your project from an interior designer’s perspective, ensuring seamless integration with materials and details. • The "Invisible" Standard: I specialize in glare control and hidden-source techniques, mastering the sophisticated aesthetic of the Italian design market. • Independent & Objective: As a consultancy-only studio, my specifications are brand-independent, focused solely on your project’s budget and quality requirements. • Data-Driven Certainty: I utilize advanced Computational Daylight Modeling (CBDM) and photometric simulations to eliminate guesswork before construction begins. Specialized Services: 1. Architectural Lighting Design (Interior, Exterior & Facade) • Conceptual Storytelling: Developing the atmospheric narrative of the project. • Technical Design Packages: Comprehensive AutoCAD layouts, control zones, and 2D/3D integration details. • Tender-Ready Specifications: Brand-independent fixture schedules tailored to your project’s needs. 2. Photometric Visualization & Engineering • High-End 3D Renders: Photorealistic visualizations using 3dsMax, Vray, and Rhino3D. • DIALux Evo Simulations: Accurate photometric data analysis (IES/LDT) to ensure visual comfort and lux level compliance. 3. Advanced Daylight & Sustainability Consultancy • Compliance Modeling: Expert reports for LEED, WELL, BRE 209, and BS 17037. • Scientific Metrics: Calculating sDA (Spatial Daylight Autonomy) and ASE (Annual Sunlight Exposure) to optimize building performance and occupant productivity. Software Ecosystem: • Technical: DIALux Evo, AutoCAD, Climate Studio, VELUX Daylight Visualizer. • Design & Rendering: 3dsMax, Vray, Rhino3D, SketchUp, Adobe Photoshop. Trusted by Industry Professionals: "We have been delighted with the outcomes of working with Enes. He is a highly creative lighting designer with an excellent, attentive manner. He was very easy to work with, calm and committed. He is as technically proficient as. he is creative. We would highly recommend him for both internal and external works.” James G. Let’s bring your vision to light. Whether you are an architect seeking a specialized design arm or a developer aiming for LEED/WELL certification, I am here to ensure your project is seen in its best possible light.

Transforming spaces into experiences that feel as good as they work. I help hospitality brands, boutique developers, and conscious owners design spaces that create emotional connection, operational ease, and long-term value. With 10+ years of experience across interior design, architecture, and custom furniture, I bring a holistic and human-centered approach to every project — blending aesthetics, storytelling, and business intelligence. From my beginnings in a family-run carpentry studio in Italy to leading high-end hospitality and multifamily projects across Latin America, I’ve collaborated with global brands such as Sonder, UrbanHub, St. Regis, Hard Rock Hotels, Escapology, and Nomad Living. My design philosophy is rooted in hospitality — not just as a sector, but as a way of making people feel seen, welcomed, and at ease. I combine this with a strong operational mindset to ensure every space I design is not only beautiful, but also intuitive to use, easy to maintain, and aligned with the goals of the business. What I Offer: • Interior & Experience Design — thoughtful, brand-aligned concepts for hotels, retreats, cafés, co-living and amenity spaces • Sensory & Emotional Design — spaces that speak to the five senses and evoke memory, comfort, and connection • Space Planning & Circulation — intuitive layouts that enhance both guest flow and team operation • Hospitality Strategy — from brand storytelling to moodboarding, rituals, and operational touches • Custom Furniture & Details — unique, timeless pieces designed to elevate the identity of each space How I Work: • Guest-focused, but also operator-minded — I care about how spaces are experienced and how they perform behind the scenes; • Emotionally intelligent — I believe the best spaces are not just designed, but felt; • Cross-disciplinary — from concept to construction, I bring together design, operations, and user experience; • Scalable and flexible — from boutique hotels to personal studios, I adapt the process to fit your reality; • Conscious and timeless — always designing with intention, clarity, and longevity in mind. If you believe design should create connection, delight the senses, and support the people who live and work in the space — let’s talk. Let’s create something extraordinary.
