Mark Elliot, Lighting Design Manager, Sydney
Mark began his career in lighting design in London UK where he had the opportunity to work on projects across Europe, Asia and America. Mark moved to Australia in 2004, and joined Point Of View in 2005.
Mark has worked with five Pritzker Prize winning
architects and has developed a detailed understanding
of space and how to compliment architecture
with light. He
is motivated by fusing lighting into architecture to provide
an integrated environment, enhancing the built form and
materials without imposing upon it. Taking inspiration
from beyond fellow practitioners, Mark is drawn to the
work of artists and sculptures such as Anish Kapoor and
Anthony Gormly.
Mark enjoys hockey, surfing and cycling.
