culture of light

Redefining the way you live.

Light is the soul of a room. It should do more than just fill a space – it should enrich every life it touches. Our mission is to provide the perfect light for every situation and every space. With a system engineered by us, orchestrated by you.

 

Philosophy

Turning light into Occhio light.

To create a new culture of light, everything must work in concert. We have defined four dimensions that transform a simple room into an Occhio experience.

Seamless consistency from ceiling to floor.

Holistic system

One universe. Seamless consistency.

Every Occhio is part of a seamless, holistic ecosystem – from the ceiling to the floor. Consistent design and identical light quality across all lines ensure that every element works in perfect orchestration. It is a modular universe built for total freedom, empowering you to create unprecedented lighting experiences.

Design quality

 

Form. Inside. Out.

Timeless aesthetics meets high-tech electronics. We don't follow trends; we define them. Using materials like carbon fiber and finishes like phantom or dark chrome, we create modern sculptures that are as beautiful when off as they are when they're on.

Light quality

 

The sun. Now indoors.

We took the most perfect light source in the universe as our benchmark: the sun. Our sophisticated LEDs deliver a Color Rendering Index of CRI 97. It's not just bright; it's brilliant. Colors are deeper, textures are richer, and your well-being is at the center of it all.

Joy of use

 

Orchestrate your world.

Interaction becomes magic. As pioneers of touchless control, we have redefined how light responds to you. You have the unprecedented freedom to choose your mode – by intuitive gesture, a dedicated controller, the app, or your voice. Recall curated scenes with a single tap to instantly transform your environment. It is just joy. Engineered to empower you to become the lighting designer of your own life.

Founder & Vision

 

Driven by desire.

Revolution starts with an obsession for the better. For 25 years, Axel Meise has refused to accept the status quo. By replacing fragmented lighting with a single, holistic ecosystem, he transformed a utility into a new cultural achievement. One vision. Zero compromises.

Values

 

The soul of everything we touch.

Every icon, every store, and every interaction is a materialization of the values that drive us. We have turned our inner fire into a blueprint. Excellence, Intelligence, and Uniqueness aren't just goals – they are the soul of every product we build and everything we do. Together, they create the spark we live for: joy.

Heritage

 

From a system to a universe.

In the 1990s, light was a landscape of chaos – clashing styles and inconsistent technologies. Axel Meise, then a lighting designer, searched for a universal tool to orchestrate spaces holistically. Finding none, he decided to invent it. In 1999, the Puro system was born. This heritage of solving a designer's problem remains our core. Every Occhio today is the result of that original refusal to compromise.

Puro

Puro is born from the quest for the perfect lighting and is the first holistic lighting system for residential and commercial areas. The key idea from founder and designer Axel Meise is a modular head-body-system that is continuously developed over the last 20 years and continues to inspire more and more people.

2004

Sento

Sento is the first lighting system with adjustable lighting effects and color temperatures. Interchangeable lenses and color filters provide fascinating effects.

The lighting system develops into a bestseller, then a perennial favourite and finally a classic.

2008

Divo

With Divo, Occhio creates the first decorative lighting system. Thanks to the changeable, internal aluminium reflectors, the lighting effect can be changed in this case too. Divo – an object of desire!

Più

Perfect purism: the Più luminaire series offers different solutions from spotlights. The system of ceiling, recessed, track and room spotlights enables holistic lighting design for living and office areas.

2012

io

Magical mobility, individual style collections, touchless operation – the io luminaire series is the first modular LED lighting system.

This is the first time that brightness can be controlled – where the light is created, of course: the luminaires can be operated via touchless gesture control on the luminaire head.

2014

Sento LED

Sento in halogen becomes the Sento LED system – with completely new control features.

Two LEDs provide uplighting and downlighting that can be controlled separately. With output-compensated »up/down fading«, the full luminous power is available on demand on each side. Light can be directed anywhere in the room!

2014

lui & lei

The lui spotlight series combines lighting technology and design in a radical form: interchangeable lenses, of the kind familiar from photography, open up new lighting design possibilities for you.

The lei series surprises with sophisticated lighting technology: an adjustable iris shutter creates different lighting moods.

2017

Mito

With Mito, a new form of ring luminaire system is introduced in 2017, featuring »color tune« and unique gesture control for the first time – a masterpiece.

2018

Purism & extravagance in perfect balance: the expressive arc luminaires not only emphasise your love of exceptional aesthetics but can also be precisely adapted to your situation thanks to innovative features.

2022

Gioia & Taglio

Table and reading luminaires redefined through impressive mobility, innovative features and precision lighting – simply fascinating.

2023

Luna

Luna fascinates with its sensual elegance and, on closer inspection, becomes a masterpiece of lighting technology. The Occhio fireball, embedded in a mirrored glass sphere, produces soft, directional and glare-free light. Luna magically combines classic beauty with modern technology.

2024

Luna Pura

The first wireless luminaire from Occhio brings the magic of Luna everywhere. With innovative functions such as Occhio fireball technology and ‘color tune’, unique lighting moods can be created, from cool moonlight to romantic candlelight.
