dpa lighting consultants greatly values its history but concentrates on the present and future. The Practice was established in 1958 by Architect Derek Phillips, who qualified at Liverpool University and then went on to complete a master's course in Architecture at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Derek met and worked with many important Architects who greatly influenced his pioneering activities as an independent Lighting Consultant. His meetings with Frank Lloyd Wright and Le Corbusier were particularly inspirational.The Practice now has offices in Japan, the U.A.E and the UK and a substantial team who focus their thoughts on all aspects of lighting, both natural and artificial. The scale of our Practice and close working relationship between our studios means we have been able to recruit from a wide variety of backgrounds. This broad skill base that now focus solely on architectural lighting design provides dpa with an unparalleled human resource and knowledge to deal with the varying challenges each project demands.dpa has always been at the forefront of education about all aspects of the lit environment and this continues today. Our desire and appetite to continually learn and share information has always been important, but perhaps with the current changes in light source technology and environmental legislation is more important than ever. We have different teams constantly monitoring and discussing all aspects of the built environment and lighting technology, be it LED light sources or digital controls and sharing this information with everyone in the Practice. Our history and completed projects, which number over 7,500 in 85 different countries, provide us with an incredible wealth of experience, whilst our appetite for the present and future ensures that dpa are at the leading edge of lighting design, pushing creative and technical boundaries whilst always protecting our Clients interest.
