"While we constantly incorporate new technologies and materials, it’s the meticulousness of the traditional, handcrafted design process that transforms our pieces into more than simply the newest design."
Nicolas Terzani is the President and Creative Director of Terzani, a high-end decorative lighting product manufacturer based in Italy.
Terzani was founded by Nicolas’s father, Sergio Terzani, in Florence, Italy in 1972. The firm has since worked to meld traditional Italian craftsmanship with modern technology to create lighting that blurs the lines among art, luxury, and design.
Sergio and Nicolas have furthered their experimentation in lighting design with the creation of the Terzani Lab, where new materials, techniques, and ideas can be developed and tested.
“Our creative vision is really defined more by our process than by a specific design direction, ” he explains. “Often we work without a defined objective, and let our hands do the work for us. Some of our most popular pieces have come about by chance — often, experimenting with even the most familiar material will open up new ways to it. ”
Terzani continues to commission designs from renowned artists including Nigel Coates, Maurizio Galante, Christian Lava, and Dodo Arslan who add their unique voices contribute to Terzani’s extensive collection.
With their most recent and highly celebrated collection, Terzani has taken the next step in its evolutionary process - building from its position as an industry leader to create an incubator for the future of lighting where Terzani can focus on new ideas and continue to redefine the way luxury lighting is made.
