L'Observatoire International is a lighting design firm established by Hervé Descottes in 1993 in New York City. The firm works within a range of different spatial expressions including architecture, landscape, urban, and fine art projects.

L'Observatoire has become known for its innovative ways of applying light within the built environment, and does so by merging the latest technologies with an aesthetic paradigm in order to most advantageously engage and reveal the program, space, and form.[1] The firm has collaborated with architects and designers including Steven Holl, Frank Gehry, Diller Scorfidio + Renfro, Jean Nouvel, Richard Meier, Peter Marino.[2]
