What if darkness wasn’t the absence of light—but a form of urban infrastructure? In this episode, we dive deep with Chiara Carucci, a transdisciplinary lighting designer who's reshaping how cities think about nighttime. From moonlit forests in Sweden to bat-friendly corridors in urban parks, Chiara shares her vision for lighting that respects biodiversity, supports human well-being, and treats darkness as a civic asset—not a void.

💡 Topics Covered:
– How we use Artificial Light at Night ("ALAN") has significant impacts
– The concept of “darkness acupuncture” and rewilding cities
– Ecosystem service value: putting a price on lost darkness
– How lighting design can heal, connect, and inspire
– Why stargazers aren’t the only stakeholders in the darkness movement
