An Interview with Discoco Designer: Christophe Mathieu
Today we would like to share an interview with the designer of the iconic Marset Discoco fixture: Christophe Mathieu!
The Discoco has long been a best seller in our showroom, and it is always interesting to get a peek into a designer’s head.

Project: Ascent Penthouse
Sharing another one of our past projects with you today! Check out these photos of our Ascent Penthouse project:
Inspiration: Using Dramatic Scale
Sometimes it’s fun to play around with using scale, especially if you have a large space to work with! Check out some inspiration using some of our favorite large-scale fixtures!
Featuring: Escape
Today we are featuring the Escape by LZF!
The Escape pendant is composed of wood veneer and is available in a wide variety of colors. It was designed by Ray Power for LZF this past year, and was inspired by falling dominos. This resulted in a wonderful layered fixture from which light ‘escapes’ from through the wood grains.
New From Axo Lighting!
Check out the new line from Axo Lighting! We love the large scale fixtures that Axo has to offer, as well as the creative use of materials. Axo is well know for their use of washable fabric covers on their fixtures.

Featuring: Grace
Today we are featuring a beautiful fixture from Studio Italia Design: Grace!

Inspiration: Our Favorite Floor Lamps
Here at Switch, we don’t have a ton of floor space available to show any large amount of floor lamps in our showroom. It makes us sad that we are unable to show all of the lamps we love so much! Since we are unable to do so, we’re going to share with you (some of) our favorite floor lamps!
Tolomeo Mega by Artemide
The Tolomeo Mega is a definite classic. It can work well in nearly any design style, and all of the bending and swiveling abilities it has make it a really functional fixture!
Nobi by Fontana Arte
Next up is the Nobi. Nobi boasts of a slim, minimal design with a maneuverable, glass diffuser. We’re crazy about its sleek design!
Curl My Light by Studio Italia Design
Curl My Light is another fantastic floor fixture on our list. Featuring a spiral of overlapping metal layers, this fixture offers a great play on light. It’s also available in two different floor lamp versions!
Funiculi by Marset
The Funiculi floor lamp is, like the Tolomeo, a classic design. It also offers versatility because you can adjust the height of the fixture, and the diffuser can rotate a full 360 degrees!
Flexiled Leather by Contardi
The Flexiled Leather floor lamp made it onto our list for multiple reasons. One of our favorite things about this lamp is that it features a material that is not a common material in lighting: leather! Even without the leather, this lamp is still wonderful. The neck is flexible, so you have maximum maneuverability. It’s also LED!
Featuring: The Piano Light
If you’ve been in our showroom, you’ve probably played the Piano light!
Featuring Piano Light by QisDesign!
The piano light is available as a floor or table lamp version. It’s especially unique because of the LED “keys” which can be individually pushed to turn them on or off. This can be particularly useful when you’re trying to create a custom level of ambient light… you can turn on and leave off as many keys as you choose!
Overall, the Piano is a fun and beautiful piece that would be a wonderful addition to any home or business!
