Lightbahn manifesto.
Lightbahn exists to bring back the night skies we’ve lost to light pollution. We believe that when we experience what has been lost through the over-lighting of our planet, we begin to make more mindful choices about how we illuminate our spaces.
Our motto, “Bringing Back the Night Sky,” reflects our conviction that gazing at an unpolluted sky sparks a deeper, more conscious relationship with artificial light.
