Artemide has shaped how the world sees light since the 1960s, from the balanced arm of the Tolomeo to the glowing disc of Discovery.

The Human Light

Founded in Milan by Ernesto Gismondi and led today by Carlotta de Bevilacqua, Artemide calls its approach "The Human Light": light designed around people, backed by in-house research and patents. The result is a collection where an engineer's precision meets a sculptor's eye.
