ARCNOMA Sponsors Noche De Luces Design Week Celebration with Marset Lighting and SERHANT.
BROOKLYN, NY – ARCNOMA, the international design and research studio founded by Christopher Mancia, served as an official sponsor for Noche De Luces, a featured celebration held during NYC Design Week. The exclusive evening, presented by Marset Lighting in collaboration with global real estate brokerage SERHANT., took place on Wednesday, May 20th at the Marset Showroom in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
The event brought together top design professionals, real estate developers, and architectural thinkers to explore the intersection of illumination, spatial narrative, and property value. The evening kicked off with a VIP developer and designer tour of the showroom, followed by curated hospitality featuring specialty cocktails, tapas, and live jazz. A key highlight of the program was the Illuminating Design fireside chat, where industry leaders discussed reimagining cityscapes and interior environments through the lenses of architecture, real estate development, and advanced lighting design.
Sponsoring this NYC Design Week initiative aligns directly with the core research workflows of ARCNOMA. As an international studio, ARCNOMA investigates environmental crafting, building science, and tactile materiality without geographic boundaries. The opportunity to analyze state of the art lighting technology allows the studio to expand its ongoing research into how luminescent performance impacts human psychology, wellness, and spatial experiences within the luxury sector.
These high-level research insights are ultimately passed to Mancia's independent New York entity, Architecture Nomad PLLC. As a licensed professional practice, Architecture Nomad PLLC translates ARCNOMA's global design concepts into code-compliant, structurally verified residential and commercial developments across the five boroughs.
"Sponsoring Noche De Luces allowed our international research arm to deeply engage with the cutting edge of lighting performance," says Christopher Mancia. "Light is not merely decorative; it is a fundamental element in our Architecture of Belonging framework that alters how inhabitants feel a sense of permanence within a space. Partnering with premium innovators like Marset and top tier real estate teams like SERHANT. helps us continue bridging global design theory with rigorous, localized execution.” The celebration concluded with a networking session on the showroom's garden balcony, co-hosted by The Sara Golan Team and SERHANT., fostering critical dialogue among local stakeholders on the future trajectory of the New York built environment.
