More than anything else, 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. Redefining what a Design Showroom can be since 1974 At its core, Luminaire is about democratizing design – helping people to become fluent in its particular language. Simultaneously, a classroom, gallery, laboratory and playground – Luminaire is most importantly a place of discovery, not just for design but how we can use it to accentuate and improve our lives. The idea for Luminaire emerged out of Nasir and Nargis Kassamali’s love for the work of European design visionaries such as Le Corbusier, Mies van der Rohe, Alvar Aalto and Arne Jacobsen, which developed while students of design in Copenhagen in the early 1970s Every city has its own unique energy — an almost palpable presence shaped by its residents, communities and physical attributes. Interwoven amongst and connecting these elements is the design sensibility of a location, what gives a city its distinctive flow and feel: crisscrossing streets, buildings rising to create a skyline, how one neighborhood gives way to another and the movement of people in and through these spaces. Responding to, channeling and redirecting this energy is a vital part of the Luminaire ethos. Through its curated showrooms, educational programming and philanthropic efforts, Luminaire has been a pioneer in design thinking and design retail in the United States, and has established itself as a timeless brand in the design industry A Playground for Design Discovery Over the years, the company has emphasized the necessity for design education and regularly sponsors curated exhibitions and hosts a lecture series every year which has featured design luminaries, such as Patricia Urquiola, Davide Groppi, Marcel Wanders, Antonio Citterio, Piero Lissoni, Philippe Starck, Richard Sapper, Ron Arad, Amanda Levete, the Bouroullec brothers, Ingo Maurer, Konstantin Grcic, Massimo and Lela Vignelli and Naoto Fukasawa, among many others. Luminaire Today 6X 300k Locations around the United States Website Visitors in 2021 150+ 17+ Vendors in our Family New Collections in 2021 85+ 13 Creative Minds within the Company Exhibitions in 2021 30k+ 50+ Social Media Followers Collections of Top Designers from around the World 1x ∞ Industry leading Ecommerce Destination Creative Possibilities Content Summary 01 Our Story 02 Our Spaces 03 Our Brands 04 Our Team “A sanctuary for good design” 01 Coral Gables 02 Design District 03 Chicago 04 Los Angeles 05 San Francisco 06 Menlo Park 07 Online Coral Gables Design District Chicago San Francisco Los Angeles Menlo Park Luminaire’s 15,000 sq ft. flagship Coral Gables showroom, designed by Mateu Architects, opened in 1984, showcases the company’s original vision that good design is a way of life and continues to be a background to the unparalleled collection of the best in contemporary design and now features B&B Italia Miami mono-brand space spread across 7,000 sq. ft. on the first floor of the flagship showroom.

A young spirit capable of combining iconic seating and complements, like graphic signs sketched in the air, with tables as adaptable as everyday life is. But also a story which began in 1990 when the four Orsenigo brothers – the heirs of a metalworking family company – envisaged a firm that would be more in step with the times and, from the very beginning, called on the cooperation of established or up-and- coming designers. Issey Miyake | London Issey Miyake | London Porro One of the most successful furniture design brands thanks to its research on finishings, refinement of line and the technical quality of its details, Porro celebrated the 90th anniversary’s important milestone in 2015.
