Design process
clean & timeless
NIGHTTREE embraces beauty in simplicity, crafting contemporary luminaires through refined minimalism and high-quality, updated lighting components.
Designed by Peter McLea, each piece merges aesthetics with function, often serving multiple purposes to achieve a clean, timeless look. With wooden exteriors and modern design, NIGHTTREE luminaires provide soft, inviting lighting with minimal glare. They feature intuitive controls that allow users to set the perfect mood, prioritizing both physical interaction and remote settings. While wood is a frequent focus, NIGHTTREE is not restricted to it, other materials are thoughtfully integrated to suit each design’s needs. Structural integrity, heat management, and discreet housing of internal elements are considered across all processes. Through a blend of practicality, craftsmanship, and modern materials, NIGHTTREE creates versatile lighting solutions inspired by Scandinavian and Japanese design principles.
