The British Spirit
British design is known for its creativity, individuality, and deep connection to heritage. From the industrial revolution to the present day, British designers have continuously balanced function and form to create lighting that is practical and full of character. Whether rooted in traditional craftsmanship or pushing the boundaries of modern technology, British lighting design embodies a unique blend of heritage and innovation that remains influential worldwide.
We have compiled five standout designs from our British brands that showcase distinctive design, technical excellence, and timeless appeal.

Anglepoise Original 1227 Collection
An enduring icon of British design, the Anglepoise
Original 1227 remains as relevant today as it was when George Carwardine
first introduced it in 1935. Its pioneering spring mechanism allows effortless
adjustability, making it both a functional tool and a design statement.
Recognised around the world, even inspiring Pixar’s famous Luxo lamp, the 1227
exemplifies British ingenuity and timeless design.
