About LichtHub
LichtHub is more than just a blog—it’s a journey through the fascinating world of light, born from a lifelong passion and years of hands-on experience.
The Person Behind the Light
I’m Houyam Elkandoussi, a Lighting Designer and Light Engineer with a burning desire to illuminate the world, one space at a time. My fascination with light began in childhood, marveling at how sunbeams danced through leaves or how stage lights transformed ordinary school plays into magical experiences.
This early wonder evolved into a career where I blend artistry with technical precision, creating lighting solutions that don’t just illuminate—they inspire.

My Philosophy
I believe that light is a powerful tool—it can guide, comfort, excite, and transform. Through my work and this blog, I strive to:
- Push Boundaries: Lighting technology is advancing rapidly. I’m committed to staying at the forefront, experimenting with new techniques and technologies to create innovative solutions.
- Respect the Human Experience: While I love the technical aspects of lighting, I never forget that at its core, lighting is about how it makes people feel. Every project, every post is centered on enhancing human experience.
- Embrace Sustainability: As our world grapples with energy concerns, I’m dedicated to finding and sharing lighting solutions that are both beautiful and environmentally responsible.
- Bridge Art and Science: Lighting design is a unique blend of creativity and technical knowledge. I’m passionate about exploring and sharing both aspects, showing how they complement each other to create stunning results.
