The aim of the show by the lighting design students was to invide the streets with light for a moment and illuminate some forgotten architectural gems. This was a demonstration of the power of light in skilful hands.
Arrangers of this event were SuperMukava Design Store, lighting design students from TAMK School of Art and Media headed by light designers Annukka Larsen and Antti Hiltunen. Torch carriers were people recruited by DesignOnTampere event and students from TAMK School of Art and Media.
