Contardi Lighting are ifferent from our competitors and different from the logics of maximum profits with minimal efforts. We take care of the processes, as nobody. We take care of materials, as nobody. We take care of customers, as nobody. Our diversity borns afar, from the maniacal work of our father. From the beginning it was clear that we needed an organized reality that offered to the big names of lighting design a basin of "know how" where other companies of the same field - in Italy and abroad - could tap into. Thus, beside the partnership with Stilnovo were born other collaborations with Quattrifolio, Lucitalia, Lumina and then Armani Casa group e B&B Object Division. Today we're bringing light to home, villas and boats. But also the best hotels in the world. Each hotel is a brand in its own right, where personality is expressed through the content and tone of voice.We fully understand these briefs and work to provide the best solutions.
