Richard and Ana Meier collaborate on lights inspired by geometry and past buildings

The designer Ana Meier has joined forces with her father, Pritzker-winning architect Richard Meier, and lighting specialist Hervé Descottes to launch a new 12-piece lighting collection.

The products – which include floor lamps, table lamps and sconces – have been designed to “elevate the art of lighting with simplicity, geometry and lightness.”

Produced under the brand Richard Meier Light and available in Corian and glass, each piece blends the architect’s vision with the sculptural forms his daughter is known for producing and the technological innovation favoured by Descottes, the founder of design firm L’Observatoire International.

Several of the pieces take direct inspiration from Meier’s buildings, such as his 1995 Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art and early homes he designed in the US.

Richard Meier says: “Architecture has the power to inspire, to elevate the spirit, to feed both the mind and the body. With this collection, we have distilled this feeling into objects.”


Supplier: Richard Meier Light

Timeless in appearance yet forward-looking in its approach, Richard Meier Light designs tap advanced materials and industrial craftsmanship to create objects that are eloquently expressive. The pieces represent a shared ideology from all three designers: Richard Meier, the Pritzker-Prize winning architect, Ana Meier, a product designer with a strong, modernist voice, and Hervé Descottes, a lighting master.
