Joe Armitage

Joe Armitage is a London-based lighting designer whose brand is deeply rooted in a blend of heritage, sustainability, and modern craftsmanship. Drawing inspiration from his grandfather, architect Edward Armitage, Joe's designs reflect a respect for tradition and a modern sensitivity to sustainability. The original lamp design from 1952 by Edward Armitage influenced Joe's contemporary lighting collections, which are handcrafted in the UK with attention to longevity and material quality.

In addition to a focus on sustainable practices—such as using recycled materials for his lamp shades—Joe collaborates creatively with his grandmother, Marthe Armitage, a well-known wallpaper and fabric designer. This multi-generational exchange adds depth to his work, blending family legacy with a modern, minimalist aesthetic.

His designs, like the renowned floor and desk lamps, are known for their elegant, sinuous forms and high-quality craftsmanship, with sustainability as a core value. Through these pieces, Joe is carving out a distinct place in contemporary design, rooted in heritage but forward-looking in its approach to materials and aesthetics.
