It’s looking like 2019 will be one of our most exciting and interesting years. At the heart of what we do is bring stunning design and designer lead lighting products to our customers. With that in mind we’ll be working hard in 2019 to bring new exclusive brands and light products to you. Our team will be hitting the biggest and best shows in Europe as well as travelling to visit the designers and crafters of the stunning lighting we supply.

In 2018 we started working with some incredible new suppliers and lighting designers. Working closely with them we have added our own exclusive Edit by Willie Duggan range of lamps, pendants and wall lights. Alongside our own range we have partnered with Haberdashery, one of the UK’s most ambitious lighting design companies bringing a truly unique range of lighting to the Irish market. 2018 also saw us introduce Lux y Casa, Nostalgia Lighting and Hammam Bathroom Lighting to Ireland growing our range of exclusive lighting brands which include Studio Italia, Arturo Alvarez, LZF Lamps, Ivela and Prolicht.
