High Point Market

MASIERO, is in constant fervor and continues its brand consolidation strategy and its promotion of new collections and iconic items on international markets by participating for the first time in High Point Market (22-26 October 2022), a leading furniture show in the United States, through its subsidiary MASIERO USA LTD.

At the autumn edition of High Point Market, Masiero will be showcasing some of its most representative models in terms of materials and design, alongside the latest collections, Posy and Iglù, premièred at Milan Design Week in June 2022.

Iglù (2022, designed by Oriano Favaretto): a collection of harmonious compositions of metal spheres suspended in mid-air. These fixtures diffuse the light through a protective wire mesh, turning the spheres into true jewels of light. The source is a LED embedded in each sphere, which projects regular patterns onto the surfaces.

Posy (2022, designed by Sara Moroni): a very personal, visually striking yet elegantly minimalist bouquet of light. A brass bar structure in a sleek, brushed galvanic finish supports one or more opal glass diffusers. The collection comes in a wide range of designs, shapes and sizes, including single and multiple suspensions or flower-like bunches.

Horo (2021, designed by Pierre Gonalons): great decorative all-rounders, for a collection of ceiling, floor, wall and table lights. A golden metal structure contains a disc of prism-effect glass with a distinctive diamond finish or alternatively of striking marbled-effect glass. In 2021, Horo was honoured with the Good Design Award, a prestigious international award, in the lighting design category.

Vegas (2021, designed by Marc Sadler): inspired by Las Vegas architecture, this is a “Timeless Classic” collection of striking suspension lamps, combining the classicist, geometric style of large Art Deco lamps with a more contemporary pairing of glass and metal via the most advanced craftsmanship methods. Thick glass is subjected to a particular heat process that deliberately deforms the pieces, resulting in exquisite strips of extremely similar but non-identical glass featuring trapped air bubbles – just like the works of the great master glassmakers – giving each lamp an evocative charm of its own.

Nappe (designed by Marco Zito): original suspension lamps offering a contemporary take on tassels, traditionally a decorative element of curtain ties. The project comprises 10 variously shaped metal elements and trims that can be combined together to produce compositions with three, five or ten light sources, arranged in a line, circle or rectangle.

Sound (designed by Giovanni Battista Gianola): a family of stylish lamps that diffuse light through slender metal rings encasing a double circular diffuser in white, blown, silkscreened glass. The fixtures come in striking multiple suspension versions, but also as floor, wall and table lamps, available either in a brilliant brushed gold finish or in an elegant two-tone variant in brushed brass and matte black.

Honicè (designed by Oriano Favaretto): variously sized rectangular slabs of translucent onyx marble, the marmor alabastrum of the ancient Latins, rich in veins and set in a suspended frame of matte gold metal. A LED light source allows the light to filter through the polished onyx diffuser, enhancing the beauty of the surface and its timeless elegance.

Olà (designed by Masiero Lab): first designed more than ten years ago by the Masiero creative laboratory, the simple round or oval structure in painted metal of these fixtures contrasts with the luxurious cascade of pendants in coloured glass or transparent crystals, making the Olà family of lamps one of the brand’s best and longest selling collections.

EVA (designed by Masiero Lab): an evolution, in terms of design and materials, of the classic chandelier, here featuring a polyurethane and resin structure and aluminium shades.

Palm (designed by Mammini Candido): an original modular system of wall lights in the shape of a fan or stylised leaf to be arranged at will. These lamps can be used to form veritable wall decorations due to the extensive range of materials – such as gold leaf, faux leather, fabric and wood – in which the slender metal structure can be coated.

Interior lighting design: our suggestions

Lighting design is one of the most important elements in the decoration of a living space.

Choosing the right lighting strikes a balance between style, functionality and personal taste.

The Covid involved a radical change in the life habits of each of us and the priorities in our lives.

Reclaiming the spaces, making your home cozy and functional, reflecting the personality of those who live it has become a widespread priority.

Less is more has become a statement useful to interior decor and also to the choice of lamps.

Horo, designed by Pierre Gonalons, with its simple and essential lines, certainly goes in this direction. The simplicity and the ability to decorate with taste and various spaces make Horo a winning choice!

Another focus of the season is the passion for retro atmospheres. The time of solitary confinement that we spent has made us nostalgic, eager to recreate the world of our childhood, or that golden age that we dream of being able to live again. So also in the interior lighting we see the return to the 60’s and 70’s, to the economic and creative boom that has involved the whole world.

Vegas designed by Marc Sadler is a collection of sculptural volumes, precious and impactful, that illuminates the house with a sign of style very marked.

The passion for retro and vintage taste will certainly make you appreciate Olympya design by Masiero Lab, which with its classic shapes and reassuring colors is a choice of lighting design that will accompany you over time.

Sustainability and attention to the environment are values that are back in vogue. So natural materials enjoy a renewed interest.

Flashwood design by Giovanni Battista Gianola is the Masiero’s suggestion made of wood with integrated LED lighting, in full respect of the environment.

We talked about current trends in interior lighting design, but what really matters when choosing the lighting of your home is harmony. The house is the place where you share family experiences or take refuge in the intimacy of a time for yourself. All this requires harmony in the colors, in the shapes, in the space that you live.

The creation of a warm and welcoming space goes through the choice of interior lighting, which contributes to create the right atmosphere for each of these moments. The balance between aesthetics and functionality, design and practicality is the focus of Masiero’s lighting proposals.

Choosing designer lamps for your spaces means leaving an imprint of your personality, making the space unique, modeling the light and shadows, shapes and lines, colors and volumes. I mean, make it real.

How to manage light in a reading corner

Choosing the right light is essential in creating your own relaxing corner at home.

Intensity, position and kind of lighting can make the difference when in the evening, you relax by dedicating yourself to the noble art of reading.

Imagine coming home after a long work day. The only thing you want is to relax, letting yourself be pampered by the embrace of your favorite armchair, with your reading lamp as a silent companion, immersing yourself in the imaginary world of your favorite novel.

What could be more relaxing than a reading corner made to measure for you, with extreme care and attention? The color of the walls, the furnishings and of course the light, which accompanies you at all times of the day, changing according to your needs.

When you think about relaxation, the first words that come to mind are tranquility, serenity and comfort. How to concretely transfer them to your reading corner? Start with the piece of furniture on which you will relax with your book. It could be a comfortable armchair, perhaps with a retro taste and near the window overlooking the garden, or a soft and comfortable sofa. Once you have found the perfect place, customize it with objects that talk about you, it will make you feel at ease. The choice of light will be crucial, since the lamp will choose at the same time a functional piece of furniture and will be at your reading, providing you with the right light to give you pages and pages of adventures without straining your eyes.

Which reading lamp to choose? The alternatives are essentially two: the floor or table lamp. The first generates a more diffused light, which descends from the other to illuminate the pages. If you have a tea table next to your reading corner, you can opt for a table lamp that creates a more intimate atmosphere.

If you have opted for floor lamps, you can choose between Blake, with its minimal and captivating design, it will also give a touch of grit to the environment. The black frame and the diffuser in Venetian glass plates make this lamp easily combinable with different colors of furniture.

If you are a lover of softer and more captivating shapes, Eva is the perfect product for you. The wide range of colors offered in the catalogue allows you to choose the one that best fits your room.

If you are a fan of retro taste, Horo with its glass diffuser available in different finishes and colors will illuminate your readings with the eye of light which, by turning the lamp, you can direct it towards you.

Design will enter your home thanks to the Sound floor lamp, an iconic product of the Dimore Masiero catalogue. If you choose the LED version, you can modulate the light thanks to the dimmer according to your needs and moods

For your reading table, on the other hand, a lamp like Marco Zito’s Cupole is the design solution that will bring a touch of Venetian style to your home. This product is also available in the floor version.

If you are a lover of the classic revisited in a modern way, the Darshan table lamp is your perfect choice. Entirely covered in leather, it is available in 3 colors.

Lighting ideas for open-space kitchen and living room

The open space kitchen and living room was born in American architecture and is increasingly popular in Italians homes. It is a focal space of the house, the one where the family comes together to spend time together and share conviviality thanks to the large spaces reformulated on a human scale.

Within the space it is appropriate to delimit the areas, distinguishing the kitchen from the dining room and the living area. To do this in addition to the furniture you can use the lighting design to emphasize this distinction.

The search for lighting solutions of an open space should start from the study of space. The most important lighting points should also be chosen according to the type of lighting you want, recessed spotlights, LED spotlights or chandeliers.

The furniture plays a primary role in the choice: a suspension in the middle of the room integrates perfectly with an elegant and classic space, while minimal solutions such as spotlights or design suspensions illuminate better a minimal space. In the choice it is to consider that straight and geometric lines follow the verticality of modern furniture, while the rounder shapes can soften the whole.

Thanks to the creation of separate areas within a single space the family will have the areas suitable for every moment. A very important light point is the one that will light up the dining table, where the moments of conviviality are spent.

The relax area, with its sofas and armchairs, is the most relaxing heart of the house where you can spend your free time having long evenings chatting, reading books and watching movies with friends and it needs a dedicated lighting.

The ideal is to establish more points of light in this area, perhaps using floor lamps next to the armchair, rather than a chandelier that lightly illuminates the room or spotlights that are the ideal solution in the darkest corners. To light up a dining table or the island in the kitchen, it is ideal to choose a suspension with a straight and clean line.

You can range from the Olà collection, choosing the oval suspension, perfect to illuminate the kitchen island giving a touch of preciousness

to the billiards of the Sound, which is characterized by the characteristic shape and minimal at the same time.

The living area needs a more intimate atmosphere, to be illuminated with the elegant crystal pearls of Cristalis

or with the captivating design of Blink


or with Crek and its precious handmade glass plates.

You can add a touch of color with soft light by choosing Cupole.

If there are areas of particular interest for architecture or furniture elements to enhance, you can use wall lamps that allow you to light up even the most narrow areas as corners and niches. Among Masiero’s various proposals in terms of wall lamps, Palm stands out for its originality and flexibility, being a modular wall decoration system.

If you need to renew the lighting of the open space kitchen-living room, but you do not want to undertake a whole path of lighting design, you will simply replace the suspension of the room with something special.

You can choose Olympya: changing even a single detail so important will give new life to the entire room.

What is dimmable light?

What is dimmable? Dimmability is a LED technology that allows you to adjust the intensity of light. It represents an innovative way of managing light in domestic spaces and beyond.

The adjective dimmerabile comes from the Anglo-Saxon language and means “lower”. Thanks to this technology, the intensity of light can therefore be adjusted, ensuring maximum luminous comfort in domestic and public spaces, all managed through analog or wireless solutions.

It’s enough a touch to have a light more or less intense: the space adapts to your needs changing shape based on your wishes and needs.

The use of dimmable integrated LED lamps is perfect for areas such as the living room, the relaxation area, the study or the bedroom, as well as for the dining room of a restaurant or a lounge bar. The whole mood of the room changes as the intensity of the light changes, creating new light and shadow effects.

Masiero has used dimmable light technology in different collections, whether in suspension and ceiling lamps, wall lamps or floor lamps, allowing full autonomy in the management of ambient lighting

For example, with the suspensions and wall lamps from the Honicé collection by Oriano Favaretto, the simplicity of the lines is reflected on the walls, creating different reflections based on the intensity of light. Honicè is an illuminated sculpture perfect for the living room, to which it will give preciousness and refinement.

Cupole design by Marco Zito is also part of the led dimmable suspension lamps. This chandelier that recalls the domes of the bell towers of the Venetian churches, creates a play of light thanks to the construction that provides a double light source, one in the lantern and one in the dome.

The light emanating from this lamp recalls the glimpses of light coming from the churches and becomes even more soft and romantic lowering the intensity, until it becomes a halo of light that warms the corners of the home.

You can also choose the dimmable light for the reading area, close to your favourite armchair.

Sound floor lamp design by Giovanni Battista Gianola, will be an elegant piece of furniture that will guide you in your favourite readings.

If you love to read in bed, Horo’s table lamp design by Pierre Gonalons will bring a touch of design to your room, making the atmosphere elegantly restful.
