Flos

Flos, since 1962, thanks to its attractive collections of lamps and chandeliers has established itself among the leaders in the lighting sector.

Flos tells a 100% Made in Italy story, the result of passion and trust, expansion and experimentation.

The name "Flos" which means "Flower" in Latin, has as its origin a bright thought: the idea of giving birth to objects suitable for changing the way of living from a light bulb.

The Italian Company has designed icons in the design world, specialized in the production of lights and lightning systems.

Among all the Arco floor lamp, the Parentesi and Taraxacum suspension lamps (on the cover) by Achille Castiglioni, the famous Taccia lamp, the Aim, the Toio, collections of unmistakable elegance such as the String Light and other ultra-contemporary solutions, collaborating with the best known designers and architects on the national scene.
