Welcome to BOLD—where light tells a story. An award-winning architectural lighting design firm with studios in New York, Los Angeles and Indonesia. Our goal is to instill personality and purpose into the built environment.
We value shadow as much as brilliance. We listen, we observe, we show restraint—shaping emotion and space.
Founded by Brian Orter, whose theatrical lighting background shaped NYC’s iconic nightclubs, BOLD carries a legacy of drama and precision. Beyond design, Brian is president of Pilots to the Rescue, an animal rescue mission, and supports causes like Camp Treetops, The Trevor Project, The Center, ACLU, and Aviation Scholarships.
We are proud members of DLFNY, IALD, Asian Lighting Community, IES, and the National LGBT Chamber of Commerce.
Sustainable, bold, and thoughtful—let’s create something meaningful.
