Flora Lighting Collection

‘We are super excited to be displaying a new series of works at House of Icon during LDF this year, centered around a new lighting design, ‘Flora’. This is an idea we have wanted to explore for years, but only recently did we give it life - the concept being a large floral floor lamp, as if huge flowers coming out of a pot - leaning into that oversized, other worldly scale. Alongside this, we have also developed a series of pendants and other lighting that shares the same DNA’ - Christian Cowper, co-founder of Studio Claud Christian Founded in 2019, the design studio was created by designers and ceramicists Claudia Surrage and Christian Cowper. The duo focuses on creating playful furniture, lighting and ceramic pieces for interiors as well as collaborating with furniture manufacturers across Europe and the U.S. Alongside ‘Flora’, the studio will also present ‘Plumus’, a generously curvaceous pendant whose torus-like form emerged from a series of experimental studies on the wood lathe. The design celebrates the beauty of process, translating hand-turned explorations of form into a distinctive lighting piece that is both expressive and quietly architectural. ‘We really look forward to reintroducing the Plumus to the public alongside the new Flora pieces. The Plumus is definitely a crowd pleaser, and a piece that works so well in a mixture of interior settings from wellness retreats, to Parisian cafes; we’ve had the pleasure to see the Plumus play a part of some beautiful interior projects!’ - Claudia Surrage, co-founder of Studio Claud Christian
