About us

Substance Shapes Form

First and foremost, Hugo Neumann is a consultancy specializing in artificial lighting.
Our primary mission? To understand – listen, analyze, and identify the project’s needs and ambitions. Light is more than illumination; it defines space, guides function, and enhances architecture.

We bring added value through tailored, sustainable solutions:

  • A precise lighting approach adapted to each space and its purpose.
  • Long-term durability and optimized maintenance.
  • Intelligent light management, from optical quality to energy efficiency.
  • Innovative applications that push the boundaries of artificial lighting.

We know what can be achieved with artificial light and how to make it work best. Our studies are backed by professional lighting calculations, seamlessly integrated into architectural software (RELUX, DIALUX, AutoCAD & REVIT), ensuring precise and effective solutions.

Our Philosophy

Since 1928, Hugo Neumann has been a pioneer in artificial lighting solutions.

Light is far more than just illumination: it reveals, transforms, and enhances architecture. Like photography, it is both a means and an end. Without light, nothing can be seen. With light, everything is elevated.

We move beyond the conventional focus on aesthetics or technical performance. We believe in “Third-Type Lighting” – an approach where light is not a constraint, but a solution. It structures spaces, shapes perception, guides functions, and enriches sensory experiences.

Our commitment?

  • Viewing light as a medium that tells a story and defines identity.
  • Merging aesthetic precision, technical intelligence, and sustainable vision to create tailored lighting solutions.
  • Selecting specialist brands that offer cutting-edge technologies for a wide range of applications: retail, offices, museums, hospitality, industry, public spaces, and more.

We bring together two complementary fields of expertise:

  1. A lighting consultancy, providing specialized guidance for architects, designers, and specifiers.
  2. Exclusive brand representation, ensuring access to the most advanced and specialized lighting solutions on the market.

At Hugo Neumann, light precedes form – it defines architecture and brings spaces to life.
