Getting in Touch
Reaching out to Tommy Balogh is the first step toward turning your space into something people remember. Whether you’re a venue owner exploring a venue activation enquiry, a developer weighing up an artwork leasing enquiry, or simply curious about what light-activated art could bring to your property, every enquiry starts the same way. A conversation about the space, the goals, and the atmosphere you want to create.
For those ready to move quickly, the fastest way to connect is to Book a Discovery Call. This short conversation gives Tommy a clear picture of your venue, timeline and budget, and gives you a chance to ask questions before committing to anything. It’s a low-pressure first step, not a sales pitch, more a chance to see whether a Light Up The Room installation is the right fit for your space.
If a call isn’t the right starting point, email works just as well. A short outline of your venue, its size, its purpose, and the kind of impact you’re hoping to create is enough for Tommy to suggest a package tier or point you toward examples of similar past work. Photos of the space, even rough phone shots, help enormously at this stage, since every installation is designed to respond to the architecture and light already present.
Every enquiry, regardless of how it arrives, is treated individually. There’s no standard quote or off-the-shelf package pushed onto every venue. Instead, the process usually begins with understanding what the space needs to feel like once the work is finished. Some conversations lead toward a compact entry-level piece for a boutique bar. Others become landmark-scale commissions for major developments. The starting point is always the same: a genuine conversation, not a generic enquiry form disconnected from the artist himself.
Response times are generally within one to two business days, even during particularly busy exhibition and installation periods.
If you have a firm opening date or event deadline, it’s worth mentioning that upfront. Installation lead times vary depending on scale, and landmark pieces in particular benefit from being scoped well in advance. Smaller, entry-tier installations can often be delivered on shorter notice, making them a practical option for venues wanting a fast atmospheric lift without a long planning runway.
For venues that have worked with Light Up The Room before, or for collaborators reaching out about exhibitions, residencies or media enquiries, the same contact channels apply. Tommy reviews every message personally, so even enquiries outside the standard venue activation or artwork leasing categories are welcome. Collaborations, workshops, press requests and gallery invitations are all part of the ongoing Studio Notes story documented elsewhere on this site.
There’s no wrong way to start the conversation. Some people know exactly which package tier they want before they reach out. Others simply know their space feels flat and want to explore what’s possible. Both are good reasons to get in touch. The goal of this page isn’t to funnel every enquiry down a single path. It’s to make starting that conversation as easy as picking up the phone, sending an email, or booking a short call directly into the calendar.
Whatever stage you’re at, reaching out costs nothing and commits you to nothing beyond a conversation. If a venue activation enquiry, an artwork leasing enquiry, or simply a general question about the work is on your mind, this is the place to start it, and Light Up The Room looks forward to hearing from you.
