Harvey Guzzini was born in Italy in 1959 from the vision of the six Guzzini brothers, who dreamed of bringing light into modern life with a language both playful and refined. At first dedicated to metalwork, the company quickly turned toward lighting, embracing the new materials of the time—plastic, chrome, glass—to give shape to luminous objects that seemed to belong as much to the future as to the present. Under the artistic direction of Luigi Massoni and in dialogue with some of the most inventive minds of Italian design, Harvey Guzzini created pieces that have since become milestones of the Space Age style.

Among them, the soft and rounded Mushroom lamp, the elegant sweep of the Arc floor lamp, the sculptural petals of Gae Aulenti’s Quadrifoglio, the refined simplicity of the Faro and Toledo table lamps, or the futuristic Brumbery—all objects in which form and function meet in a delicate balance of light and shadow. These creations carried Italian design across borders, appearing in homes, exhibitions, and public spaces, symbols of an era that sought beauty in optimism and innovation.

By the mid-1970s, Harvey Guzzini evolved into iGuzzini, turning its attention to architectural and urban lighting while preserving the poetic spirit of its origins. The name may have changed, but the legacy of those luminous sculptures endures: lamps that still glow with the optimism of the 1960s and 70s, and that continue to embody the timeless dialogue between technology, design, and imagination.
