David Trubridge is an internationally renowned lighting designer who is resolute in his mission to create sustainably produced products with a natural and organic aesthetic. Trubridge believes that the combination of these two principles directly affects the product’s sustainability, maintaining that consumers are less likely to discard products that are beautiful.

His work came to prominence in 2001 when the Italian design house Cappellini bought the rights for his steambent ash recliner. The Coral light followed in 2003, establishing a blueprint for kitset products that minimised their environmental footprint. The company is proud to be B-Corp certified and hold Life Cycle Assessments (LCA’s) and Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) for their range of lights.

The company is driven by a strong environmental responsibility which informs all aspects of design and production and tries to create a caring and enjoyable workplace for all employees. Such motivations come before profit.
