Oliver Michl's lighting designs make spaces come alive. They range from decorative to technical, futuristic to retro, static to flexible, strict to playful.

×For twenty years, Oliver Michl has been a tireless lighting designer and developer of special luminaires, focusing on site-specific lighting solutions and innovative designs. His classic "FleXXXibile" luminaire enjoys cult status amongst creatives: available in drop or wall-mounted versions, it features a concertina lattice that allows the light to be precision-targeted.

×With its funnel-shaped reflectors, the sculptural luminaire by the name of "360°" bears a strong resemblance to the Sputnik satellite sphere. It was individually designed in 1960s James Bond style for the Vesper bar and lounge in Berlin (Kurfürstendamm 160) and named after a famous drink served at the establishment.

×Its beauty shines through: the message of the charismatic light sculpture speaks for itself, giving it the potential to become a bright star in the luminaire sky.

×Oliver Michl's latest design is the pendant lamp "PULL", which is hand-woven out of pull-tabs from aluminium cans in his Potsdam studio. It is a highly emotional design that combines the themes of wickerwork and recycling and translates a handicraft into architecture.
