The Minor Descent
Light, Composed.
The Minor Descent
Breaking the old divide between architectural and decorative lighting.
We developed The Minor Descent delivering high-performance technical specs in a decorative customisable body. By combining a 125 lm/W inner core with a hand-cast, tactile housing, we’re giving designers a fixture that meets ever-stricter commercial targets without losing the artisanal character of the space.
Nevermore will there be compromise. Luminaires that move beyond the ordinary.
THE PROFESSIONAL TOOLKIT
The Minor Descent is engineered for high-performance benchmarks, ensuring the decorative scheme supports the building’s long-term efficiency and compliance goals.

DESIGN ELEMENTS
Housing Design
Compact geometry meeting customisable expression. The Minor Descent's outer housing adapts to its architectural context—different profiles, finishes, even project-specific detailing that makes each installation singular rather than standardised.
The pendant's diminutive scale becomes its advantage: small enough to punctuate rather than dominate, versatile enough to repeat across a space without visual fatigue.
Materials & Finishes
Jesmonite
Roman Cement
Custom finishes and materials available upon request.
Applications
Task-oriented environments
Office and studio spaces
Galleries and exhibition areas
Residential focal points
Customisations
The outer housing itself becomes a canvas for project-specific expression—geometric profiles, fluted textures, knurled surfaces, or entirely bespoke forms tailored to your architectural intent.
By design, the housing detaches with a simple twist, allowing future transformations without reinstallation. Change the appearance as the space evolves, swap housings between fixtures, or refresh an entire installation with a single elegant motion.

A 60-SECOND REFRESH
We wanted to get away from the static nature of traditional lighting. The Minor Descent uses a refined, tool-less friction-fit that lets you swap the entire aesthetic in under a minute. Because the inner core is a permanent installation, the look can be updated or refreshed without the need for additional wiring or ceiling works. The technical spec stays fixed, but the visual finish is completely fluid.
LONDON-MADE, BASE MATERIALS
Our manufacturing strategy is built on honesty and proximity. While high-tier technical components are sourced from a global supply chain, the transformation into a finished luminaire happens entirely in our London workshop. From specialised 3D filaments to mineral powders—and even reclaimed materials found on-site—we turn raw matter into high-end lighting under one roof. It’s a hyper-local approach to assembly and casing that standard “just-in-time” systems can’t really compete.
THE TECH & SAFETY
Sustainability has to be safe to be viable. The 3D-printed inner core is made from PET-G FR V0, a flame-retardant filament compliant with the UL94 V0 standard. It provides the fire resistance required for commercial mechanical components while maintaining the zero-waste benefits of 3D printing.
