Wastberg

Founded in 2008, Wastberg is a Swedish designer lighting brand, based in Malmö, that has remained dedicated to creating holistic lighting solutions that are also economically viable and environmentally conscious. Founder Magnus Wastberg was born into the lighting industry; through his extensive experience, he gained an understanding of aesthetic sensibility fused with Swedish engineering.

In the early noughties, Magnus Wastberg discovered a systemic failure in most offices and public areas, that almost all of their lighting setups were "harsh, unwelcoming or just uncomfortable", and from here bloomed the 'Lamps for Neanderthal Men' manifesto. Magnus' vision was to develop softened general lighting that effortlessly creates atmospheric environments, to ensure you are feeling your best, and to abolish the harsh, cold environments cast by glaring overhead lights.

Wastberg have since made it their mission as a brand to ensure that their business is not entirely focused on the measurable qualities of lighting. They understand that immeasurable factors, such as human nature, needs and emotions, are just as crucial. That is why, with Wastberg, their lighting is designed to answer your fundamental needs. Their ethos is to create well-being through good light. By drawing on the culture of a family-run company, the resources of a global group, and their close circle of leading designers and architects they collaborate with, Wastberg creates lighting solutions that are functional, emotional, sustainable, and affordable. This is their definition of good light that will make your home warm and inviting.
