Tecnolumen

TECNOLUMEN, one of the most important manufacturers of Bauhaus designs, is thus naturally of particular importance in the Formost range.

Along with Marianne Brandt and Wilhelm Wagenfeld, the style icons of German design can be found here, not least in the tradition of the Bauhaus.

TECNOLUMEN was founded in Bremen in 1980 by Walter Schnepel. With the production of the Wagenfeld table lamp in 1923/24, it soon became clear that it was necessary to make up for much of the interrupted design development of the years 1930-1950. TECNOLUMEN therefore remembered the beginnings of product design in Germany: the Bauhaus.

Hardly any of the lamps designed at that time embodied the will to design as much as the Wagenfeld table lamps - probably also because their form was reduced to the essentials. TECNOLUMEN soon expanded its range to include other classics by Bauhaus designers such as Marianne Brandt, Walter Gropius and Hans Przyrembel.

Designs by Mart Stam, Egon Eiermann and Dieter Rams cover the spectrum of luminaires up to Art Deco and De Stijl and characterise the TECNOLUMEN brand.  

After over 30 years, the main focus has remained on re-editions of the Bauhaus era. The brand also sells designs by contemporary designers.

All Bauhaus products are numbered and marked with the TECNOLUMEN Bauhaus mark and have long since become collectors' items of lasting value.
