We are thrilled to announce the təməsew̓txʷ Aquatic and Community Centre has been awarded an IES Illumination Award of Merit for Interior Lighting Design!
This project replaced two aging facilities with a unified centre that serves aquatic, fitness, community, and childcare needs. Our design used recessed linear luminaires to create visual cohesion and guide visitors, while tailored lighting strategies in the lap and family pools ensure safety and comfort. A centralized, web-based control system enables flexible, efficient lighting management. The design also supports the centre’s achievement of the CGBC Zero Carbon Building Standard, the first aquatic facility in Canada to do so. We’re honoured by this recognition and proud to have collaborated on this important community hub.

We are so proud to share that the UBC Museum of Anthropology’s Great Hall has received an IES Illumination Award of Merit for Interior Lighting Design!
As part of major seismic and structural upgrades, our team worked meticulously to illuminate each artifact with precision and care, using custom-calibrated 3000K track heads and Bluetooth dimming for flexibility. With all lighting installed before art placement, detailed modeling and aiming documentation ensured archival light levels were met. Tunable white coffer luminaires, inspired by Traditional First Nations longhouse firepits, add a respectful and dynamic layer to the space. We're honoured to be recognized and for the opportunity to help preserve and present this collection with integrity.

"Sometimes darkness and shadows contribute more to a space than just light."
"A Day in the Light" is an editorial series celebrating the designers behind the spaces we love. In this edition, we sat down with Victor Quezada, @i_light_cool_stuff, Lighting Designer & Principal at AES Engineering Ltd., @aes_engr, to talk about how a project moves from first client conversation to a finished space — and why the moments you choose not to light can matter as much as the ones you do.

We're proud to share that our lighting design for the @capilanou Fulmer Family Centre for Childhood Studies has received the 2026 @the_iesorg Illumination Award for Lighting Control Innovation. 🎉
As Western Canada's only degree-granting facility that combines early childhood care, research, and education, the building needed to support a diverse range of users, from toddlers and parents to faculty and students.
💡 Lighting controls designed around people and to maximize daylight harvesting:
🌙 During naptime, lighting smoothly dims from 100% to 1% over 10 seconds. Occupancy sensors are then temporarily disabled for one hour, ensuring a room full of sleeping children is never mistaken for an empty space.
☀️ Photosensors continuously adjust lighting levels based on available daylight in learning labs, play areas, kitchens, offices, and support spaces.
🎛️ Simple keypad scenes allow educators to easily adapt lighting to suit different activities throughout the day.
📊 The results:
• Step Code 4 energy performance
• 40% lower energy use than comparable buildings
• Enhanced comfort, flexibility, and functionality for every user
When the design process begins with the people who use a space at its core, the result is healthier buildings, lower carbon emissions, and stronger communities.

For the parishioners, volunteers, and clergy of the Vancouver Chinese Evangelical Free Church, the sanctuary and chapel are where people gather to worship, find comfort, and support one another. For many longtime members, including a large community of seniors, these spaces have been part of their lives for decades.
AES is grateful to have provided lighting design for the church's sanctuary and chapel. Working closely with the project team and the church's user group, we focused on lighting that supports the people who rely on these spaces every week. Some highlights of this project:
- Brightened the sanctuary for senior members, guided by light readings, a 3D model, a demo, and thoughtful feedback from the church's user group
- Added tuneable white cove lighting that follows the daylight from the clerestory window above the Baptistery
- Included RGBW/tunable white DMX track lighting to support special services and the church band
- Installed adjustable chapel lectern lights that dim down to 1%
- Added a simpler control console that's easier for volunteers to use
- Replaced older 8" fixtures with 6" products, using goof rings so the change would feel seamless
- Worked carefully around existing sloped ceiling adaptors that couldn't be removed, avoiding costly architectural changes
The most meaningful places are the ones where people feel at home. We're honored to have played a small part in helping this one shine a little brighter.

As September comes to a close, we’re proud to reflect on some meaningful industry engagements that the team was a part of.
At @idsvancouver, @i_light_cool_stuff used the PNE Amphitheatre (Freedom Mobile Arch) as a relatable project example to explore lighting design strategies that extend beyond large public venues to residential, commercial and hospitality work conceptually
Meanwhile, at the Kelowna Executive Security Forum, Denise joined a panel discussion centered on the theme “Smart Security, Trusted Privacy,” contributing to conversations around how organizations can advance security innovation while maintaining trust and protecting privacy in an increasingly connected world.
We’re grateful for opportunities to participate in conversations that bring industry professionals together, share project experiences, and exchange ideas that help move our industry forward.

Meet Savan Ghataurah: The Youngest Member of the AES Family
Some kids spend their summers playing video games. Savan Ghataurah spent his summer building AI agents, organizing server rooms, writing code, and exploring the future of technology.
At just 13 years old, Savan joined AES as an AI Agent Developer, becoming the youngest member of the AES family.
Savan's passion for technology started early. As a curious kid, he was always taking apart tablets, figuring out how they worked, and finding ways to hack and customize them. So, when an AES team member reached out about an opportunity to get involved, he jumped at the chance.
"I thought it would be a great learning opportunity to understand the technology and how everything works."
Since the start of summer, Savan has been contributing to our Office of the Future initiative, helping develop AI agents, supporting coding projects, and even bringing order to our server room by labeling and organizing equipment.
What stands out most to him about AES isn't just the technology. It's the people. He enjoys the boardroom experience, collaborating with team members, and learning from mentors who generously share their knowledge. Savan describes AES as a place that goes far beyond the classroom, opening the door to a world where cutting-edge technology is readily available, and the possibilities for creativity and innovation seem limitless.
But perhaps his favorite part of working at AES is the culture. "Everyone is so approachable and even as a 13-year-old, I feel comfortable sharing my ideas as I know that my perspectives are valued.”
Savan, a student of @urbanacademybc will remain involved with AES, contributing primarily during school breaks while balancing his academic commitments and work.
He reminds us that innovation has no age requirement. With curiosity, passion, and a willingness to learn, one can make a meaningful impact.

Located in the heart of Lower Lonsdale, Museum of North Vancouver (MONOVA) was envisioned as more than a museum. It is a welcoming place where people gather and connect through exhibits, events, education, and shared experiences. From the moment visitors enter the lobby, anchored by Indigenous artist Wade Baker's Twin Sisters artwork and a restored streetcar, to the flexible Community Hub and Temporary Gallery spaces, every element contributes to a rich and engaging experience.
AES is proud to have provided electrical and lighting design services for MONOVA's 15,200 sq. ft. facility, including its Temporary Gallery. Our work helped bring this vibrant cultural destination to life while supporting the celebration of North Vancouver's stories, history, and diverse communities.
Thoughtful infrastructure plays a critical role in shaping how people experience a space and connect with one another. For us, projects like MONOVA embody what it means to design a better tomorrow. By supporting places that preserve history, foster learning, and strengthen community connections, we help create environments where culture and conversations can thrive.
The best community spaces do more than tell stories. They create opportunities for new stories to be written. MONOVA is one of those places and we're honored to have contributed to this project.
