Porta Romana – A Philosophy We Share
Bespoke pieces and handcrafted objects with true individuality are one of our studio’s core values – and it’s this very philosophy that aligns us so closely with Porta Romana. That’s why we often and enthusiastically incorporate their lighting collections into our interior projects.
)
(Almost) Every Wish Made Possible
Every Porta Romana creation is made by hand and made to order – whether it’s a customised version of an existing model or an entirely new concept. This means each detail can be adapted to harmonise seamlessly with your space – from finish and fabric to scale and structure.
Examples include:
Standard fittings and cables that can be reimagined in alternative materials or colours
In-house handmade lampshades that can be tailored in your preferred shape, fabric – or even upholstered with a client’s own material
Hand-painted finishes available across the full Porta Romana library, with custom lacquers and surface treatments upon request
In addition to lighting – including table, floor, ceiling, and wall lamps, as well as showstopping chandeliers – the portfolio also includes furniture pieces: decorative mirrors, consoles, and side tables, all hand-forged in England, with bespoke adaptations possible in terms of size, proportions, and finishes – guided by Porta Romana’s skilled artisan team.

Handmade in Great Britain – With Heritage and Heart
Porta Romana collaborates with master glassblowers, ceramicists, metalworkers, and sculptors – all of whom bring their own artistic expertise to each design. Many pieces are produced using centuries-old techniques, preserved and practised as part of the company’s dedication to British artisanal heritage.

Sustainability in Practice – The Upcycling Club
While many speak of sustainability, Porta Romana actively implements it – through their Upcycling Club. This initiative offers clients the option to restore and renew beloved Porta Romana pieces.
Whether the goal is to refinish a surface, rewire a lamp, or re-upholster a shade, almost any aged product can be revitalised. If restoration isn’t feasible, clients may return their item in exchange for a credit towards a new piece – ensuring the spirit of every design lives on with purpose.
