About Luminaire:
Luminaire has been a pioneering force in the design world for over 40 years, during which time it has reshaped the idea of what a design store can be. It is an interactive design research center, a playground for the soul, an esplanade for discovery. More than anything else, however, it is a resource focused on creating environments that affect people's lives. The component parts of this unifying philosophy - the necessity of design education, the desire for limitless inspiration and the requirement for impeccably detailed execution - affect every item in our collection, and reflect our dedication to make good design accessible to all.
