Since the end of the eighties, starting from a small laboratory in the historic center of Piacenza, Davide Groppi invents and produces lamps with the homonymous brand.
Over time, creative and entrepreneurial independence allowed him to develop original and recognizable projects, distributed all over the world. Projects that come from the heart and the brain, intuitions that emerge from a certain way of being and thinking, where simplicity, lightness, emotion, invention and wonder are the fundamental elements.
Davide Groppi lamps are born from the need to give shape to a necessity or a meaning.
His inspirations are art, ready-made, magic, the desire to do things with his hands or simply the desire to play and joke with the light. The light, for Davide Groppi, is a wonderful opportunity to seduce and excite.
Davide Groppi has always worked with a close-knit group of collaborators, with whom he shares all the ideas.
