VanLumen Custom Lighting for Restaurants. We worked with a New York Architectural firm to perfect these custom suspension and wall lights for the RN74 restaurant at 31 Mission Street in San Francisco. We are proud of the results, the shades of amber glass on some of the fixtures and the transparency of lampshade material suspended inside blackened steel forms on other fixtures.

Cutler-Anderson Architects designed Bainbridge Island's award-winning Grace Episcopal Church to house its congregation and express its values for a domain of grace:
a setting in which the interior and exterior are almost one. Their lighting fixtures are designed to emulate the architecture--simple, straight lines, unencumbered by excessive detail.

VanLumen Architectural Lighting fabricated the architects’ designs to aesthetically allow continuous light to flow over the fixtures' 4 foot length, while also creating a practical space in the bottom to house the church's sound system. The fixtures artfully reflect the architecture, while quality sound flows mysteriously into the interior spaces of the structure.

VanLumen took the lighting concept--conceived by a lighting designer emphasizing a combination of Italian glass and American-forged iron--from the design stage to the unique glass and iron creation that you see here.

We are experienced in fabricating with wood, forged steel, stainless steel, glass, and fabrics.

The linear beauty of this fixture complements the multi-colored bottles behind the restaurant's bar. Designed again with blown glass and forged steel in mind, VanLumen guided the artists during the forging stage to guarantee that the finished product would fit the site and display the wonderful Italian glass suspended from the forged frame.

We have created custom suspension fixtures for hotels, churches, and lobbies in condominiums and business centers.
