noun
(/reɪ/ ˈstuː.di.oʊ/)
a multidisciplinary lighting design practice based in New York City. Founded in 2025 by Roberto Esquenazi Alkabes, REA Studio brings together over a decade of experience across theatrical productions, site-specific installations, live events, advertising, and architectural projects.
Our work blurs the lines between these worlds, using light as a tool for storytelling — revealing emotion, shaping space, and guiding the way people experience an environment. Whether shaping a performance, transforming a public space, or elevating a brand, we approach each project with the same goal: to craft meaningful, memorable experiences through light.
