Students of the MBA MArch Advanced Master in Architecture, Design and Business Administration have visited the facilities of Vibia, one of the most internationally recognized firms in the field of contemporary design lighting.

These headquarters also feature a showroom, both spaces having been designed by the Francesc Rifé studio. They are structured as an architectural space of pure lines and powerful volumes where light is the absolute protagonist. The project organizes the office and exhibition areas through an open-plan layout that utilizes glass partitions, high ceilings, and a subtle color palette in gray tones and natural wood, achieving a serene and minimalist atmosphere. The workspaces integrate fluidly with the interior courtyards and exhibition areas, creating a clean, continuous journey that faithfully reflects the brand’s identity.

During the tour, the Vibia team shared their work philosophy with the students, which is based on design as a tool to transform spaces through light and on close collaboration with architects, designers, and interior designers from all over the world. Additionally, the students observed the inner workings of their production center in detail and experienced how the brand identity materializes in each of their collections. This experience allowed them to gain first-hand knowledge of the creation, development, and manufacturing process of lighting fixtures that combine technology, design, and innovation at the highest level.

Vibia, based in Barcelona, has consolidated its position as a pioneering company in offering lighting solutions adapted to each project, committing to customization, sustainability, and a strong digital innovation strategy; today, they maintain an international presence, developing projects in numerous countries.

The tour of the facilities served to delve into their processes, products, and a philosophy that puts design and light at the service of experience. Beyond technology and aesthetics, the students saw for themselves that what truly sets a great brand apart is how it manages the experience of those who interact with it.
