Because of its low cost, recyclability and ease of processing, it can appear in various forms and uses. In today’s world where energy is becoming scarce, many products can use lightweight materials as design elements, which can later be processed into other industrial products. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the combination of plaster and lightweight materials using literature collection and analysis as well as case analysis, understand how different luminaires can be combined with light, and provide an in-depth discussion of the interaction between luminaires and light steel structures for creating different atmospheres. The final results from this study show the following. (1) The relationship between plaster and lightweight materials was investigated based on the design conception using 6-3-5 Brain writing, which incorporated light steel structures and attempted to align the design of luminaires with this building material. The result is that the thus designed luminaires not only meet the basic illumination need but also have decorative effects. (2) As a result of the lightweight experiment, vermiculite was the selected lightweight material because its porous and fireproof properties allow better mortar fluidity, which enhances mold filling performance. (3) The survey associated with this study on ‘preference’ to plaster luminaires shows that the respondents are slightly satisfied with the aesthetic feel of plaster luminaires and most satisfied with their novelty.
