What does your store specialize in?

We specialize in collecting important and/or exciting authentic 20th Century European lighting, furniture & objects. All items are handpicked, most of them are found during our frequent trips back to the German homeland, others we acquire through several European dealers that we work with.


Any specific items at the moment you are in love with?

Obsessed with Kaiser Idell lamps as well as kandem lights (both are German Bauhaus-aera lighting manufacturers) love Gaetano Sciolari cubic chandeliers for their exquisite composition. The “grasshopper” lounge chair by Preben Fabricius & Jørgen Kastholm.

Favorite architects / lighting designers?

Alvar Aalto, Charlotte Perriand, and Serge Mouille


What did you do before L7?

For the past 7 years I worked for Frank Gehry as a 3D Coordinator & Job Captain on medium to large scale projects. Before that I had engagements with Greg Lynn, Graft Lab & Imaginary Forces as a project architect.

2 new works by APPARATUS, a lighting studio in New York.
