For over eighty years, the ateljé Lyktan factory in Åhus has produced unique luminaires in parellel with family series of luminaires. During the forties and fifties, individual luminaires were often made for a specific place, but as times changed, the demand for standard products became more commonplace.
At the beginning of the twenty-first century, interest for custom-made solutions grew and the ”Custom design unit” was revised and given more resources. The modernised, custom design department was named Ateljén (the studio).
In Ateljén, everything from prototypes (some never become more than a prototype) to luminaires for offices, hotels, residential homes and public environments are manufactured. All kinds of lighting for interior and exterior environments, of both small and large series are developed here.
The custom design department has the capacity, flexibility and competence to solve all kinds of technical and lighting challenges. All sorts of things go on in Ateljén, from cutting, punching, polishing, different types of welding and spinning, rolling, powder coated and liquid varnishing, trimming, filing, and of course all types of forging work. There are no limitations, only possibilities.
