Winkilab: Light and Migration: a communication tool in emergency situations

This thesis explores the topic of light and migration and what actions through light can be done to improve the life quality of the inhabitants of temporary shelters/refugee camps. In this ambiance where there is the feeling of pain, destruction, unsafety, uncertainty and limited access to basic needs, only relying on the support of institutions. A wide range of needs need to be covered, however this thesis proposes to aid the migrants’ when they reach a refugee camp by the creation of Winkilab, a light post that becomes a universal communication tool and function simultaneously as light therapy to have a positive impact on the migrant’s emotions.
