Streamlight: Summer Lighting Design Essentials with Karman Italia

As Summer slowly envelops us we can’t help but be inspired. The fresh, youthfulness of the season has us daydreaming of the latest design inspiration such as the trendy lighting alternatives from Streamlight and their brand of the month – Karman Italia.

Founded in 2005 Karman has become a go-to design brand for unconventional decorative and designer lighting made in Italy.

Constantly turning heads with their unique designs, Karman has become synonymous with innovation and originality. Always finding the perfect balance between the past, present and future of design. Karman was born in the heart of the Marche Region, an area that seems to have had a major impression on all Karman designers with hints of their love for nature or Italy embedded in their designs.

Besides for the home-altering designs they are also world famous for their seasonal look-books. Becoming such a source of discussion, Karman even has a section on their website dedicated to the ‘BTS’ moments on their look-book shoots. A definite lesson in authentic artistry.

The team behind Karman have a special knack for experimenting, daring and innovating. All the designers’ styles blend and coexist happily between tradition and modernity inspired by research and great technical skills to create beauty. It’s comforting to know that there are design spaces all over the world that push artistry and creativity instead of the safety of normality. A safe space for designers to ‘go wild’. Karman goes above and beyond what is normal or needed and that is the kind of passion we love.

With such an exceptional brand comes truly exceptional designers such as Karman’s Art Director and creative- Matteo Ugolini. With no muse among the masters of the past, Matteo designs what he truly likes. His aim is to excite and create emotion while staying rooted in nature. Through many of Karman’s ranges you can find these hints at nature.

His focus is to bring the human race closer to the one element we seem to be gradually departing from- Nature. It seems many of the designers behind Karman are interested in the element of nature, form and function. Architectural-design is also seen throughout the many different Karman ranges. From The labyrinthine silhouette of the Ghebo lamp to the unique, stylish and durable Alibabig, there is nothing these designers can’t do.

Seeing designs from every corner of the world we can confidently say there is no brand quite like Karman. From Restaurants, hotels, private homes and retail, each space with its own personality and identity, whether it is shabby-chic or modern, Karman lighting fits into all these different locations with a sense of ease and harmony. Karman, always making sure the project is a great source of inspiration for everyone who comes into contact with it.

The Karman Italia rage is on display at Streamlight.
