Since the very first time I put design on paper many decades ago, I've had a magnetic connection to the power of lighting - big or small, in almost any shape, such simplicity carries weight. It’s been my honor to create a collection of fixtures that both speak to my trademarked aesthetic and bring textures & finishes to a collection that represents what you'll already find in our work, and in designs I'd put in my own home.

In this collection, every detail was considered, every application and combination. I want you to feel like you have a piece of my heart with every fixture you purchase and can hear my voice when making your own design choices. This collection is filled with pieces in almost every lighting category from decorative lighting to task lighting, all that can be used independently and/or as a combination within a design scheme.
