Flos Lamps
Flos was founded by Dino Gavina and Cesare Cassino in 1962 in the Italian town of Merano. The company still manufactures some of its original, classic models. Its main location is in Bovezzo, Italy. Flos manufactures a range of standing, table, mounted, pendulum, and outdoor lamps for private as well as commercial use. The Flos philosophy is that lamps should be provocative and forward-thinking without compromising the basic and fundamental principles of lighting. This vision has led to a range of iconic lamps that have helped change the way we think about lighting.
From the very beginning, Flos has been known for its high-quality approach to lamp manufacturing, design, and production processes. Many of their lamps designed specifically for commercial use are some of the most famous and successful products on the industrial design market—and the company has Achille Castiglioni and his brother Pier Giacomo Castiglioni to thank for that.
More about Flos and their lamps
Flos has won a range of prizes and is internationally recognised for its designs. Flos lamps are on display in design museums around the world. In the 1980's, talented up-and-coming designers flocked to Flos. In 1988, Flos started its partnership with Philippe Starck. This partnership has led to a series of successes and Philippe Starck still works with the company to design and develop new products, including the Ara lamp, the Romeo Moon series, and the Cicatrice de Luxe chandelier. In the 1990s, Flos manufactured the Rosy Angelis, Romeo Moon, and Archimoon collections, all designed by Philippe Starck.
The elegant and expressive IC lamp is one of Flos’ great successes from the 2010's. The lamp was designed by Michael Anastassiades who started his collaboration with Flos in 2014. The inspiration for the lovely and daring IC lamps was a video of a juggler, who was balancing balls on their arms and legs. The designer has recreated the magical moment where the juggler balances the ball perfectly on their fingertip, reimagined as a spherical lampshade balancing perfectly on a slender frame.
Throughout the 1990's, Flos released a range of products from new designers. This reflected Flos’ desire to unearth talented designers in order to stay ahead of the market. In partnership with Jasper Morrison, Flos began to manufacture its Glo-Ball lamps in 1998. Flos lamps are characterized by the fact that they fit into most homes with their beautiful details such as mouth-blown glass shades and elegant shade effects.
The Bouroullec brothers Ronan and Erwan started collaborating in the late 90's. They had their breakthrough in the late 00's, when they designed the popular Aim lamp for Flos. The brothers are famous for their experimental approach to design, which is reflected in the Aim pendant. The simple lamp is based on the concept of step-free adjustment to the height of the light. Together, the minimalist lampshade and loose cable provide flexibility and serve as a sculptural, decorative object in your décor.

Miss K and Ktribe from Phillippe Starck
One of the most recognizable lamps from Phillippe Starck is without a doubt Miss K table lamp. His interpretation of the traditional silhouette of the table lamp has an elegant and eye-catching look. Thanks to the semi-transparent plastic material, the diffuser of the lamp can be seen through the shade, giving the lamp a distinctive look. The lamp is equipped with a transparent cord that gives Miss K a complete look.
Phillippe Strack once said at a presentation: "You can't leave two Miss K lamps alone together - they just multiply"*. As a further development of the Miss K lamp, we have the beautiful KTribe series. KTribe is a whole series of lamps that have the same characteristic shade as Miss K, only combined with a foot, base or stand in timeless aluminum. The stylish lamp is available as a table lamp, pendant, floor lamp and wall light, all of which add a pleasant and striking light to the room.
Other talented designers followed, including Jasper Morrison, Marc Newson, Antonio Citterio, Marcello Ziliani, Marcel Wanders, Piero Lissoni, Rodolfo Dordoni, Joris Laarman, Knud Holscher, Johanna Grawunder and Patricia Urquiola.
When you buy a Flos lamp, you don't just get lighting, you get modern lighting art. The philosophy at Flos is that lamps should be both provocative and innovative, but still maintain the basic and fundamental principles of design. Flos can therefore present a large selection of iconic lamps that change the whole concept of lighting. Finally, many of the lamps from Flos are functional with light sources above the traditional 40-60W, so they can do more than just create cozy lighting, which is an important quality that is in demand in many places both in business and private life.
Glo-ball lamps by Jasper Morrison
The simple yet stylish Glo Ball series was designed by Jasper Morrison in 1998. The lamp has references to the simple lamp fixtures of the 60s/70s that were found in almost every home. The round glass shade has once again become a hit in modern interior design - not only because of its minimalist look, but especially because of the increased focus on proper lighting in the home.
Opal glass screens are known and loved for the diffused light they emit into the room. No matter which glo-ball lamp you integrate into your interior design, you get a lamp that sends light 360 degrees out into the environment. In other words, it not only provides light over the dining table or in the sofa corner, but contributes to the overall lighting of the entire room.
