About project

With the help of light, we created an atmosphere in the space that fosters creativity.
Previously, this room also had good light, good but cold. In such a space, you feel like you're under an X-ray. And light is the main factor that affects our state and the balance of the brain's hemispheres. Uniform cold light is not conducive to creativity. 

We got rid of the uniform light and made the lighting warm and contrasting. Even perhaps "jagged". We deliberately made irregular dots with a broken rhythm. We showed what most people hide - the interweaving of communications, pipes, supports. We also made it possible to control the light during different modes of operation of the space: as a coworking space, as a place for parties or lectures. 
Another feature in Kooperativ is caustic lamps. This is the result of our experiments. We have developed our own filters for the lamps, which work as complex irregular light prisms and create the effect that occurs when light hits the surface of clear water. These prisms are hand-blown and we manufacture them in Ukraine.
