Michael Anastassiades creates lighting, furniture, and objects that embody a quiet yet powerful presence. Defined by purity of form, precise balance, and material integrity, the brand’s designs explore the intersection of art and function. Drawing from nature, ancient Cypriot heritage, modernist principles, and personal memory, he distills a diverse spectrum of influences into a lasting language of form and structure. Each piece carries a lasting quality, where subtle gestures and refined details shape an atmosphere of understated elegance.

“Timelessness is something I aim for in my designs. Familiarity is definitely a quality that makes something timeless, but timelessness is also about materials – you need to use ones that age well and you need to use them with honesty”

Founded by Cypriot-born designer Michael Anastassiades, the studio works with expert artisans to craft pieces in glass, marble, and hand-finished metals. Informed by education in civil engineering and industrial design, Anastassiades is inspired by sculptural geometry, movement, and light, every design is a study in proportion and simplicity. Whether through his own collections or collaborations with leading manufacturers, Anastassiades’ work transcends trends, offering objects that feel both modern and enduring. His work is featured in permanent collections at the Museum Of Modern Art in New York, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, the MAK in Vienna, the Crafts Council in London, the FRAC Centre in Orleans France and the The Saint Louis Art Museum.
