Koen Van Guijze is a designer-artist of bespoke lamps, objects and furniture with a rough edge and a poetic touch.

Technically functional pieces he elevates into witty designs. With more than 25 years of experience as a lighting architect, Koen also creates lighting designs made-to-measure. Complete with a personal lighting plan and seasoned advice.
His own collections are surprisingly simple, but also raw. Imbued with guts with a touch of poetry that pulls gravity from under your feet.
