LUMINA

Lumina is an Italian manufacturer of high-tech lamps with simple lines for the residential and contract sectors. It’s based in Arluno, a small town in the province of Milan where it was set up in 1980 by Tommaso Cimini, a mechanical engineering expert. His original insight - “Lots of light, not much lamp” – is still the inspiration and mission at Lumina: to design lighting products in which function generates form and technology is at the service of performance and durability.

It was Tommaso Cimini who created the famous Daphine lamp, the company’s signature product and an icon of Italian design. It was characterized by three basic elements: a slender articulated arm, a small adjustable diffuser and a transformer, deliberately unconcealed, on the base. 45 years on, the Daphine is still admired and used all over the world and features in the permanent collections of major design and contemporary art museums (Brooklyn Museum and Judd Foundation in New York, the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, Die Neue Sammlung in Munich and The Israel Museum in Jerusalem).

Thanks to loyalty to the spirit of its founder and rigorous production methods, Lumina has been able to establish prestige partnerships with designers and architects of international renown. First and foremost, Foster + Partners, which with Lumina have designed lamps of essential beauty characterized by highly sophisticated engineering, including the Eva (table) and its little sister Eve, Flo (reading, in different versions) and Dot, the ethereal pendant lamp.
