Engineered to elevate high-end commercial interiors, tech headquarters, luxury hospitality, and bespoke residential spaces across Northern California.
The San Francisco Bay Area represents one of the most demanding, environmentally conscientious, and design-forward architectural landscapes in North America. From tech campus headquarters in SoMa and Silicon Valley to Victorian and Edwardian historical retrofits in Pacific Heights, and coastal luxury hospitality along the Embarcadero, luminaire specification demands far more than off-the-shelf decorative fixtures. Interior designers, architectural lighting specifiers, and electrical contractors require custom manufacturing partners capable of combining Mediterranean artistic design with rigorous technical standards.
As an international bespoke lamp manufacturer with decades of expertise rooted in Valencia, Spain (under FM Iluminación and Olé Lighting), we bridge the gap between European design philosophy and California structural and electrical specifications. Our vertical integrated manufacturing process allows us to craft custom suspensions, wall-to-wall linear systems, architectural downlights, and cordless table lamps engineered specifically for the San Francisco market.
Information Gain Insight for SF Specifiers: Custom lighting projects in California must balance aesthetics with strict Title 24 Joint Appendix 8 (JA8) high-efficacy rules, UL 1598 safety listings, and microclimate-specific material resistance against marine fog and salt air. Direct manufacturer collaboration eliminates middleman lead-time bottlenecks and guarantees engineering compliance before fabrication begins.
California’s Building Energy Efficiency Standards (Title 24, Part 6) set the most stringent lighting energy guidelines in the United States. For residential and commercial developments across San Francisco, high-efficacy light sources certified under Joint Appendix 8 (JA8) are mandatory. Our customized LED engines feature high efficacy (exceeding 90 lm/W), color rendering index (CRI) values of 90 to 95+, R9 values above 50 for vibrant natural tones, and flicker percentages below 30% across all dimming ranges. We engineer junction box integration, UL-listed drivers, and 0-10V / DALI-2 / Casambi wireless dimming protocols natively into our custom fixtures.
San Francisco’s distinct microclimates—marked by coastal fog, elevated ambient moisture, and saline air from the Bay—warrant elevated material durability. Standard indoor powder coatings often corrode or peel when installed near large operable glass walls in waterfront dining or residential projects. We employ marine-grade anodized aluminum alloys, multi-layer electrostatic powder coatings, anti-corrosive brass hardware, and UV-stabilized outdoor textiles. Outdoor and hybrid transition luminaires (such as our Allegra and Medusa lines) carry IP65 protection, ensuring long-term aesthetic fidelity without oxidation or thermal degradation.
San Francisco’s tech-driven workforce demands healthy, human-centric indoor environmental quality (IEQ). Low-quality LED drivers causing invisible high-frequency flicker induce eye fatigue and headaches in modern office environments. Our custom linear suspensions, acoustic textile pendants, and recessed architectural downlights integrate flicker-free constant current drivers, selectable color temperatures (2700K to 5000K), and precise optics engineered to control Unified Glare Rating (UGR < 19).
Our manufacturing facility in Aldaia, Valencia controls every phase of production under one roof. Unlike trading suppliers, we perform metal spinning, laser cutting, hand-woven textile shade tailoring, automated surface treatment, photometric lab testing, and electrical assembly internally.
This vertical control gives San Francisco architectural teams total freedom to modify dimensions, finishes, and control technologies without prohibitive minimum order quantities.
Distinctive lighting designs specialized for San Francisco's premier real estate sectors.
Acoustic pendant systems and dimmable task lighting configured for open-plan collaboration zones, boardrooms, and executive break-out lounges requiring sound dampening and high UGR glare control.
Cordless rechargeable table lights and statement suspensions engineered for high-turnover dining tables, rooftop bars, guestroom bedside consoles, and ambient lounge seating where clean cabling is essential.
Bespoke modern chandeliers and flush-mount plafones crafted to complement historic high-ceiling Victorian and Edwardian architecture, blending classic warm aesthetic hues with modern 95 CRI LEDs.
IP65 wet-rated outdoor floor lamps and wall sconces built with marine-grade coatings and natural woven fibers that withstand moisture, fog, and temperature fluctuations across outdoor dining terraces.
Explore award-winning collections recognized by international design institutions like iF Design Award.
We provide comprehensive engineering support for specifiers, including downloadable 3D CAD models, IES/LDT photometric files, installation manuals, and driver wiring schematics. Registered interior designers and lighting designers gain access to detailed pricing schedules and priority prototyping services.
Direct Engineering Consultation: Need a customized luminaire canopy for an angled ceiling or a custom 20-foot drop cable for a stairwell atrium in San Francisco? Our technical desk responds within 24 hours with complete feasibility drawings.
Three core operational pillars ensuring flawless luminaire integration into North American projects.
All exported luminaires can be fitted with UL-listed electrical components, junction box mounting plates, and JA8-compliant LED engines ensuring effortless sign-off by San Francisco building inspectors.
Submit your architectural drawings, rendered moodboards, or dimensional requirements. Our engineering department returns detailed 2D/3D shop drawings and photometric calculations prior to mass production.
We manage direct air and ocean freight to the Port of Oakland or San Francisco International Airport (SFO), handling all customs clearing, duty paperwork, and protective crating.
Six tangible advantages of collaborating directly with a European lighting manufacturer.
Eliminate distributor and rep markups. Work directly with the factory floor to optimize your project budget without sacrificing luminaire quality or performance.
From sustainable woven acoustic cords and natural rattan to brushed brass and recycled aluminum alloys, we tailor material selections to match your project moodboard.
Our LED arrays reproduce natural sunlight tones, rendering interior finishes, artwork, wood grains, and fabrics with exceptional color accuracy and depth.
For large hospitality or commercial projects, we manufacture finished physical samples for client mockup rooms and lighting design approval before full production runs.
Seamlessly integrate with Lutron HomeWorks, Casambi Bluetooth mesh, 0-10V analog dimming, or Phase/TRIAC dimming systems standard across US residential and commercial setups.
We maintain active inventories of drivers, replacement LED modules, diffusers, and shades for years after project completion, protecting your design investment over time.
Clear answers to common questions asked by Northern California architects, designers, and importers.
We supply high-efficacy LED modules achieving over 90 lumens per watt with High CRI (>90-95), low flicker drivers, and JA8 compliance documentation upon request. Components comply with 120V-277V US voltage standards and integrate standard US junction boxes.
Standard custom prototyping takes 2 to 3 weeks following shop drawing approval. Full production runs generally take 4 to 6 weeks, with express air freight delivering to SFO within 5-7 business days or ocean freight to the Port of Oakland taking 3-4 weeks.
Yes. Because all metal spinning, cable assembly, and shade manufacturing occur in our Valencia facility, we can easily extend suspension cable lengths up to 30+ feet, enlarge canopy plates, or create multi-tier cluster configurations.
For projects along the Embarcadero, Marina District, or coastal Bay Area, we recommend our specialized marine-grade anodized aluminum finishes, stainless steel 316 hardware, and IP65 UV-resistant synthetic textile weaves that resist salt air corrosion.
We support specifiers with flexible MOQs. For custom catalog adaptations (such as cord length or custom RAL color changes), MOQs start as low as single-unit or small batch orders. Entirely bespoke fixture developments are quoted based on technical complexity.
Absolutly. Our rechargeable cordless collection (such as the Senya-Pro and Nordic series) features long-life lithium battery packs, touch dimming, USB-C fast charging, and IP-rated weather protection—ideal for outdoor patios, wine bars, and private dining rooms.
