Insight

It all started in a small laboratory in the historical centre of the Italian town of Piacenza during the late 1980s. Davide Groppi was inventing and producing his first lamps and decided simply to use his own name for the name of the company. Creative independence and passionate, unconventional management have allowed him, over time, to develop his own brand of original and unique products, that are distributed the world over.

Information

Light for Davide Groppi, is a wonderful way to seduce and excite. The things that inspire these ideas are works of art, ready made objects, magic, the desire to make things with his hands or simply the urge to play and have fun with light. He has always worked with a faithful group of collaborators who share his vision and help him to develop ideas and bring them to fruition.
