Sarah Chaplick

Lighting Specialist

Chicago

With a background in Interior Architecture, Sarah is drawn to the connection between environment, function, and technical detail. Her passion for lighting design stems from its ability to shape how people feel, move, and interact within space. Lighting is more than just illumination, it’s a way to tell a story.

Sarah’s education at Columbia College Chicago provided a strong foundation in both creative thinking and technical execution, allowing her to move seamlessly between the artistic and analytical sides of design. She is especially passionate about integrating sustainable technologies and human-centered lighting strategies into architectural environments, aiming to create solutions that are not only efficient but also emotionally resonant.

Sarah approaches every project with curiosity, precision, and a collaborative mindset. She is always exploring new ways light can enhance human experience and transform the spaces people inhabit.
