Our new prod­uct line  – PRE­PON – de­rives its name from the an­cient Greek word for “deco­rous” or “ap­pro­pri­ate”. Pro­por­tion and pro­pri­ety man­i­fest them­selves in a sense of bal­ance and or­der. If these con­cepts have gone out of fash­ion, then they cer­tainly de­serve a re­nais­sance. Form must be ap­pro­pri­ate to space, an as­pi­ra­tion which can en­sure time­less, sus­tain­able de­sign.

Con­tem­po­rary ar­chi­tec­ture must strive for solid crafts­man­ship, re­li­able ma­te­ri­als, and a clas­sic pre­sen­ta­tion if it is to achieve dura­bil­ity. We must not al­low the scourge of con­sumerism to in­vade the built en­vi­ron­ment as well.

The prin­ci­ples defin­ing such build­ings need to be re­flected in their fur­ni­ture and light­ing, too. In our work as ar­chi­tects, we have found that the mar­ket rarely sup­plies the time­less prod­ucts be­fit­ting our pro­jects – and there­fore de­cided to de­sign and pro­duce our own line of lights.
