“Our challenge lies in complex forms and simple materials. We seek out materials that define architectural spaces.� Paul Klee

Jacco Maris Our company was founded in 1994, in the creative Southern Netherlands. Since that time, we have endeavoured to combine design and functionality in the form of unique lighting. To us, light is a source of emotion and we continually try to capture it in the perfect combination of forms and materials.
Crafted by hand Our lights consist of intelligently designed metal forms, which we shape, bend and weld by hand. Every curve is carefully selected and precisely crafted to achieve the finest results. We seek the best solution for all technical elements to ensure that our designs are not only highly functional, but also serve as works of art.
Pure materials Our challenge lies in pure and simple materials, forms and structures. They are the starting point for all that we create. We rarely follow trends and look to the materials themselves, to discover how we can reshape, process and use them as optimally as possible. It is this method that enables us to create genuine style icons that blend the elegant and the industrial while adding value to the environment in which they are placed. This applies to both commercial and private commissions.
Down to the finest details The quality of our designs is contained in the details: the apparent simplicity of complex forms, the use of colour and the finish of used materials, right down to the label. Each element expresses our passion for creating iconic products. 02
