Lighting sets the mood for the entire interior. It is very important to choose the right lamps that will not only fulfill their main function, but will also complement your space. We bring to your attention several studios that know a lot about lighting design.
1. Søren Rose
Not so long ago, while traveling all over America, Soren Rose amassed an impressive collection of 20th century lamps. Subsequently, the designer turned them into a series of lamps under the general name Tribeca.
2. CB2
The renowned American studio CB2 produces polygonal pendant lights in steel. They are polished with silver or brass, which gives the product a noble look.
3. Gravelli
The main material from which the company from the Czech Republic Gravelli makes its products is concrete. The company touts concrete as a new aesthetic material that can be used to make anything from household items to jewelry. The company is located in Prague and anyone can visit the open showroom, where you can see all stages of production with your own eyes.
The collection of Gravelli Fiber lamps, like any of the company's products, is made using concrete. Thanks to the material and geometric shape, the style of the lamps is reminiscent of an industrial one.
4. Michael Anastassiades
Chandeliers from London designer Michael Anastasiadis from the collection that was created back in 2008, but has not lost its relevance and fresh look Mobile Chandelier. The luminaires support the main idea of the studio: each product should be individual and of high quality. The simple design allows you to place the chandelier in almost any space, and the thin lines of the product will make a light accent in the interior.
5. Slamp
Italian design company founded by Roberto Ziliani in 1994. The lamp with the romantic name Étoile is shaped like an unusual futuristic flower. The material to be used for production is Lentiflex.
6. Lambert et Fils
Design studio Lambert et Fils, founded in 2010 by Canadian Samuel Lambert, specializes in lighting. The corporate style direction is modern. The luminaires look great in both large and small spaces.
7. Wästberg
The Swedish company produces lighting fixtures for all kinds of spaces. The lamp with the unusual name w171 alma resembles the surface of water into which a pebble was thrown. The lamp is universal: it can be placed on any surface. The lamp owes its name to a project of the same name in Stockholm.
8. Poetic Lab
London studio Poetic Lab, announced itself in 2013. The company creates products that reflect its philosophy: design is poetry. The Ripple lamp, among our selected lamps, is one of the most interesting in its shape. Its glass is curved, which allows the light to reflect on the surface in an enigmatic pattern. The product itself consists of two elements, while the upper one is constantly rotating.
9. Roll & Hill
Roll & Hill was founded by Jason Miller in 2010. Recently, he has collaborated with various designers from around the world to create truly versatile pieces. Lamps from the Agnes collection have a bizarre shape. The explanation for this is very simple - they were originally conceived as candelabra. In the final version, instead of candles, there are glowing tubes in the construction. The lamp is practical thanks to the hinges that allow the light to be directed to any part of the room.
10. Lumina
The most experienced studio in our selection, Lumina was founded in 1980. Due to its long existence, the company has learned to anticipate trends. The Matrix series are wall and ceiling lights with hinges that help raise and lower the rod 90 degrees.
Choosing Between These Studios for a Real Project
These ten studios represent genuinely different approaches to lighting - Gravelli's raw concrete forms read completely differently in a space than Wästberg's minimalist Scandinavian steel, and neither is objectively better than the other. The right choice depends entirely on the material language already established elsewhere in the room. A single striking pendant can anchor an otherwise simple space, while the wrong lighting fixture can fight everything else in the room no matter how well-made it is on its own.
Matching lighting to a project's existing material palette, scale, and budget - rather than choosing a fixture in isolation - is exactly the kind of decision our furniture selection service helps get right.
How to Fit a Designer Fixture Into a Room
Scale: over a dining table, a pendant is usually 12 to 16 inches narrower than the table, hung so its bottom sits about 30 to 34 inches above the tabletop.
One main statement per room: a sculptural chandelier needs calm surroundings.
Light, not just form: check color temperature, brightness, and dimming.
Code and certification: in the US, look for UL- or ETL-listed fixtures; many European designs are sold in versions certified for the American market.
