Our Story.
“Any space where you feel like you can truly be yourself is a home.”
We started Ambia out of a belief that incredible lighting is one of the most effective ways to make a space feel like a home. And to us, feeling like “home” is defined by a sense of authenticity and comfort - any space where you feel like you can truly be yourself is a “home.”
At the same time, we felt inspired by retro designs and lighting silhouettes from the 20th century and wanted to understand if we could provide a contemporary take on those design philosophies - with the ultimate goal of making timeless lighting for modern spaces.
With those motivations in mind, Ambia was born.
The Designs.
Our design philosophy at Ambia is rooted in playfulness.
We love to use the natural world as inspiration, modeling our designs after shapes, forms, and objects that might not initially scream “lamp.”
By combining this ideation process with existing retro design concepts (Bauhaus, Japanese akari, art deco, midcentury, etc.), we aim to push the boundaries of what lighting can look like - while still creating something timeless that can fit seamlessly into your interior aesthetic.
