The lamps are different, but the light is the same.
One matter, one energy, one Light, one Light-mind, endlessly emanating all things — Rumi
We all seek light in our lives — the light of love, hope, and faith — a glow brightening each day, one light at a time. Symbolic of this ideology, Innovative Lighting Design Limited (ILDL) brings forward lighting as a bespoke concept that is functional, aesthetic, user-centric, and tailored to individual needs, enlivening and accentuating spaces.
If there is one thing that ILDL knows how to do, it is to shed some light on creativity! Founded in 2006 by Vikram Jain, this holistic firm has expanded its horizons across South and Southeast Asia, providing lighting solutions that are not just visually appealing but also practical and customised. Born out of the realisation of the technological deficiencies in the lighting sector and its disjunct with the building and construction industry, ILDL brings forward its immense expertise to ensure that they offer the best to every client. Ranging from conceptualising to procurement and execution, ILDL ensures that every corner is illuminated perfectly.
Their strategic partnership with more than 24 prestigious brands from across the globe, including leading lighting manufacturers like Brokis, Folio, Orluna, Molto Luche, EWO, Exenia, Lec, Lumenpulse, etc., has changed the lighting design landscape in India, making global design accessible and bringing new ideas and innovation to the Indian market.
ILDL firmly believes that lighting can be a crucial element in defining and accentuating the narrative of a space. Good lighting helps a space narrate its story both conceptually and literally. At the same time, it can also impact the inhabitant psychologically and physiologically. The design of any space gets an added dimension if rightly layered with lighting. Additionally, a good lighting scheme aids in bringing the user’s vision to life, where the design narrative is set to personify the space according to the user. Whether decorative or ambient, light has the power to transform a space and evoke happiness, comfort, wellness, and luxury. Hence, with each design, ILDL aims to metamorphose spaces and celebrate the dynamism of light.
The firm is also consistently learning, adapting, growing, and evolving new technologies and innovative solutions to meet the growing needs of clients. With automation being the future of the lighting industry, ILDL is now widely incorporating it for lighting schemes. Moreover, eyeing the current uncertainties, smart automation systems guarantee safety and maximise security. As an energy-efficient alternative to manual systems, these automation systems provide quality life and enhance living experiences.
With each new product/project, ILDL raises the bar for aesthetic and advanced lighting solutions, establishing itself as a pioneer in the building and construction sector. The firm’s structured approach has built a legacy that aims to deliver the most technologically apt, avant-garde, energy-efficient, and superior-grade lighting solutions in notable projects across diverse typologies and scales. Mock-ups are an essential part of the design process for all of ILDL’s projects. It is a promising step that leaves no stone unturned to punctuate the lighting language to enhance design through premium lighting solutions.
ILDL’s extraordinary portfolio of over 500 residential, commercial, healthcare, heritage, and landscape projects spread across South and South-East Asia. The firm’s exceptional and innovative work can be observed in seminal projects across the government, luxury residential, hospitality, and commercial sectors, such as Taj Rishikesh, DLF Cyber Park, Gurugram, and the revival of heritage projects like the Taj Mahal East Gate entrance, the Sun Temple, Modhera in Gujarat and the Bahauddin College in Junagadh.
