Meta started her journey in design by studying Interior Design before moving into Architectural Lighting Design at Wismar. Since then, she has worked in several architectural lighting offices in Switzerland, refining her approach to both the technical and creative aspects of lighting.
Today, Meta runs her own lighting design practice, where she continues to explore light’s potential in architectural spaces.
Meta and Niken met at Hochschule Wismar, pursuing a master’s degree in architecture Lighting Design. They both participated in Lights in Alingsås workshop as students in 2016.
Meta believes that lighting is a craft, something best understood by experiencing it directly. Light shapes the atmosphere, influences perception and transforms spaces, but mastering this skill takes time and practice. A workshop is the perfect place for that.
“Returning to Alingsås as a Workshop Head with Niken feels like a natural step—sharing what I’ve learned, giving back to the lighting community, and reconnecting with the town that fosters such a meaningful experience. Hopefully, this time, with better weather!”, says Meta.
