Focus On/ Outdoor 2023: An Illuminating Success

October 4, 2023

We thank our valued guests, partners, and our dedicated team for attending our FOCUS ON/ Outdoor event on September 14, 2023, at Van Dusen Gardens in Vancouver, BC. 

FOCUS ON/ Outdoor presented by CDM2 Lightworks delved into the realm of landscape architecture and lighting, providing an immersive experience for all. 

We greatly appreciate our keynote speakers for this year’s Focus On/ Outdoor event. Renowned public artists James Xwalacktun Harry and T’uy’t’tanat Cease Wyss, inspired our audience with their illuminating presentation, shining light on Salish art, design, and culture and its profound connection to the built environment.  

Within the park, attendees had the opportunity to explore the limitless possibilities of transforming landscapes after dusk through our product showcase featuring leading outdoor lighting manufacturers, observing hands-on demonstrations and cultivating valuable connections with like-minded professionals. 

Our global manufacturing partners showcased their expertise and provided real-time demonstrations, offering our guests an enlightening experience. They unveiled the best-in-class lighting tools for exterior spaces, from projectors, bollards, and pathways to in-ground and underwater luminaires.

A special thank you goes to our valued partners: Lumenpulse, Sternberg Lighting, Landscape Forms, iGuzzini, ERCO, Filix Lighting, Lumca, and Hunza Lighting. 

As we reflect on the success of FOCUS ON/ Outdoor 2023, we look forward to welcoming you once again to explore, engage, and inspire at our future FOCUS ON/ events.
