Decorative lighting is essential in creating an inviting and captivating ambiance for any business or residence. The right lighting can enhance the aesthetic appeal and create a memorable experience.
In addition, decorative lighting can be customized to meet specific needs, such as color schemes to lighting intensity. And the only limit is your imagination when finding the right lighting form, finish, and function for an interior space.
Our favorite high-design manufacturers offer inspiration via modern yet quiet elegance in conjunction with organic shapes that render form factors that are familiar yet other worldly. Prepare to be dazzled by the following four manufacturers based in Europe.
Axolight
Pivot
Axolight is a manufacturer of high-end decorative lamps and is considered, in its market niche, one of the most technically reliable global partners for lighting planners.
The beauty of the Pivot pendant lamp lies in the infinite styling and lighting possibilities, all of which can be created starting from a single lighting spot. The collection consists of modular ceiling and suspension lamps and is inspired by the hishaku, a bamboo or wooden water ladle used in Japan to wash hands and purify oneself before entering a shrine. Simple. Slender. Iconic.
DCW Editions
Org
DCW Editions' commitment is to produce timeless objects that never give in to fashion, especially decorative lighting.
Behold the ORG by designer Sebastian Summa. Influenced by science fiction and astronomy, the designer built the lamp like a shooting star that is elegant, surprisingly classic, and appropriate for industrial to sophisticated settings.
Foscarini
Aplomb
Foscarini decorative luminaires are conceived as design objects that transform spaces. The company imagines, develops, and produces decorative lamps: night and day, whether on or off; they seduce, surprise, and inspire.
A special, exclusively formulated concrete plays the starring role in the Aplomb suspended lamps. This model combines sophistication with texture to cast a concentrated beam of light downwards. The lamp can be used on its own, in a line to light a surface, or even as a composition at different heights.
Lodes
IVY
Lodes has heralded a new era of contemporary design celebrating the company's manufacturing know-how and high-quality Made in Italy essence. The company represents an evolution from pure passion to brilliant architectural solutions, creating light sources that fuse contemporary design and innovative technology with materials of the highest quality, carefully developed with the best processing techniques.
IVY is a minimal, geometric lighting piece composed of a ring hanging on a cable, which gives power to a made-to-measure LED module. Designed with single and double cables, the decorative IVY responds to the need for flexibility, an increasingly contemporary theme in architectural practice and restoration.
