Leni’s engaging style has been honed to tease out your vision.

Hear from Leni Schwendinger, Creative Director at NightseeingTM to discover how light creates joy, safety and legibility after dark.

NIght Shift | Night Place was created for the 2022 International Night Studies Network conference originating from Lisbon. Here, the question of after-dark design for night shift workers is posed. The 3rd International Conference on Night Studies echoes frontier research, artistic works and practices in urban night studies. Leni appears on the night-worker panel. Her talk “Night Shift | Night Place” connects Shades of Night and nightshifters with proven community engagement methodologies. Her conclusion: Night-shifters, indeed all people, deserve creative design for safety and inspiration. It is time to co-design the darkened hours during city revitalization projects. The session was curated by JC Macquarie, "The Vulnerable-Essential Paradox: Imagining Futures of Nightwork and Nightshift Cities."

On January 20, 2022, Artist and Lighting designer, Leni Schwendinger presented to the London Mayor's Office 24-hour Team. With a humor and verve, Leni spoke of utilizing festoon lighting in innovative ways to improve night streetscapes -- expecially during the Covid 19 pandemic.

Signify Design and Lighting Academy hosted the 2nd edition of the Burlington Sessions, a CoCreate aimed at bringing together lighting artists & designers that inspire us, push the limits and create a new language of lighting. This is a small group, by invitation only, of international recognized disruptors leading the way into the future of lighting. These sessions are very hands-on, Signify shared some of the solutions we are developing in a very early stage, our guests were able to experiment and explore, and share their ideas on what/ how would these concepts work for them and their customers. Leni Schwendinger is an award-winning authority on city lighting & creator of illuminated environments. This work is shared through her public speaking & envisioning engagements, including NightSeeing™. She directs International Nighttime Design Initiative, establishing an interdisciplinary profession.
