Geometric, organic, austere. No words are more synonymous with the enduring mid-century modern movement. Once a niche postwar design era spanning the 50\u2019s and 60\u2019s, it has undeniably flourished in its second, more mainstream phase of life. Its unadorned classicism has extensive appeal, and in its current iteration, it\u2019s a fixture in modern design \u2013 whether it be through iconic vintage pieces or through new ones that draw inspiration from the original.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The beauty of Kalco Lighting is that the brand can be at once Classical, Industrial, Mid-Century Modern, Coastal, Contemporary or Hollywood Glamour. They view the most interesting elements of each style through the lens of livability and fuse it with the principles of technical innovation to give their lighting collections a sense of never-seen-before energy. They call this idea of illumination\u2014which allows them to be familiar and enduring yet emotionally moving \u2014 “fresh, timeless, and always livable.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kalco Lighting has been designing fixtures for over 40 years, and we are proud to present a collection of their mid-century fixtures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
