About
vision
LightFactor is an independent consulting office offering customers a combination of shining creativity and state-of-the-art technology. Drawing from a theatrical approach seen in architecture, Lightfactor seeks to illuminate, rather than simply add lighting to its various projects. Our mission is to infuse different spaces with soul and identity. Through our integrated and unified approach, lighting and architecture seamlessly merge to become one.
mission
LightFactor provides support to its project partners, looking to improve their ideas so that new and enriching dimensions are added to their projects through lighting.
At LightFactor, we make a point of ensuring independence as consultants. We have no affiliation to any particular brand or manufacturer. We do not profit from selecting specific devices, thus assuring practices which are ethical and transparent to our customers throughout projects.
Career Path
LightFactor Founder Alexandre Tougas is a graduate of the National Theatre School of Canada, specializing in lighting design. His glowing career began at Cirque du Soleil where he held the position of Assistant Designer for various touring shows, such as Varekai, Délirium, and Corteo. Alexandre also took part in the creation of large-scale shows Zumanity and Kà in Las Vegas.
Through his varied training and experience, Alexandre has transferred his skills to the worlds of architecture, museums, and events; at all times, maintaining an influx of renewal and creativity for every project he engaged in.
Since its establishment, LightFactor’s many projects have won numerous awards, spanning an all-embracing range of project types, from architecture to museum exhibitions. It is this experience that allows us to broaden our horizons and expand our fields of expertise.
Partners
LightFactor collaborates with architects, designers, and engineers on various projects. Depending on the type of project, the our team is mandated by either the architect, the engineer or directly by the client.
Alexandre is an associate member of the IESNA (Illuminating Engineering Society of North America) and IALD (International Association of Lighting Designer); he is also a LEED Green Associate.
