ABOUT ARTICOLO STUDIOS
With showrooms located in both Melbourne, Australia and New York City, Articolo Studios showcases the vision of founder and creative director Nicci Kavals, who is driven by a passion for creating refined, contemporary lighting with global appeal and exceptional craftsmanship.
Since 2012, Articolo has delved into the creative possibilities of lighting design, blending form and function with careful attention to detail. The brand aims to blur the lines between design, art, and architecture through timeless and thoughtful creations.
Built on a foundation of artisanal excellence, Articolo collaborates closely with skilled craftspeople worldwide, honoring the depth of their traditional techniques. Every piece is a testament to this craftsmanship, celebrating the distinctive characteristics of mouth-blown glass and hand-worked metal, while casting light that creates delicate, artful shadows.
NICCI KAVALS
Surrounded by creativity from a young age and deeply embedded in the design world from the outset of her career, Nicci Kavals founded Articolo in 2010 as a natural extension of her creative journey.
Her path weaves through international experience in food styling, interiors, and product design — disciplines that ultimately led her to a quiet fascination with the fleeting, atmospheric qualities of light. This curiosity grew into a desire to craft lighting objects that balance enduring beauty with purposeful function.
As her designs evolve, several constants remain – an organic, intuitive design process, a profound respect for the unique beauty of hand-worked natural materials, and partnerships with master practitioners who are integral to the meticulous crafting of the Articolo range.
