\nQuestions & Answers\n<\/h1>

\nAnswers on design, light, craftsmanship and bespoke work \u2013 for homes as well as projects.\n<\/p>

<\/div>

\nStyle & Character\n<\/h2>

\nWhich high-end designer lamp suits a Japandi interior?\n<\/h3>

\nARTLIVEON designs pendant and table lamps that unite Japanese aesthetics with craftsmanship from Germany. The Y\u016bgen collection takes up the design language of Japandi: organic light bodies, oak, cables braided with linen. The Metametrica collection translates geometric archetypes such as the icosahedron into light. Each work is made to order in the atelier in Lemgo, limited to 375 pieces per year. With a recommended bulb of 2200\u20132700 kelvin, the light stays warm and soft. The lamp blends calmly into wood and natural tones \u2013 and remains an independent object in the room.\n<\/p>\nDiscover all works\n<\/a><\/article>

\nWhich lamp brings wabi-sabi and quiet luxury into a room?\n<\/h3>

\nWabi-sabi finds beauty in the natural and imperfect, quiet luxury in understated, high quality. ARTLIVEON's Y\u016bgen collection unites both. Every work is a handcrafted one-of-a-kind piece; subtle variations in colour are part of it. The names come from Japanese tradition: Kodama, the spirit of the tree; Sazanami, the finest waves rolling softly onto the shore; F\u016bk\u014d, the essence of the landscape in the play of wind and light. Oak, brass and ceramic lamp holders and fabric cables braided with linen carry calm into the material. Warm, soft light creates a quiet centre in the room. Every work comes with the ARTLIVEON Heritage Pass. The Y\u016bgen collection presents all six works and their stories.\n<\/p>\nExplore the Y\u016bgen collection\n<\/a><\/article>

\nWhich designer lamp looks like a work of art even when switched off?\n<\/h3>

\nARTLIVEON's works are designed as light objects and act as sculptures in the room even without light. The Metametrica collection starts from geometric archetypes. Origo is based on the icosahedron, a form of perfect symmetry. Nexus and Kosmos unfold this archetype further. Switched on, the light traces edges and surfaces; switched off, the form remains present. Each work is limited to 375 pieces per year and handcrafted in the atelier in Lemgo. As a bespoke commission, individual forms, surfaces and a signature are possible. For collectors of collectible design, this creates an object with provenance. The Metametrica collection presents the works as pendant and table lamps.\n<\/p>\nExplore the Metametrica collection\n<\/a><\/article>

\nSpace & Atmosphere\n<\/h2>

\nHow do I bring warmth and atmosphere into a room that feels cold?\n<\/h3>

\nRooms often feel cold when harsh, uniform ceiling light dominates. Warmth comes from layered light: a pendant lamp as the centre, a table lamp as a second level. A bulb with 2200\u20132700 kelvin produces warm light. A colour rendering index above 90 lets wood and fabrics look natural. ARTLIVEON's light bodies diffuse the light softly. Oak and fabric cables braided with linen bring natural materiality into the room. Each work is made to order in the atelier in Lemgo. The Inspiration page shows the lamps in living spaces, dining areas and quiet retreats.\n<\/p>\nView Inspiration\n<\/a><\/article>

\nWhich pendant lamp is right above a dining table?\n<\/h3>

\nAbove a dining table, calm, warm light that makes the table the centre is what matters. For many ARTLIVEON pendant lamps, the cable length can be chosen between 1.5 and 4 metres \u2013 also for period buildings with high ceilings. Above long tables, two or three lamps in a row work well, for example Origo or Nagare. Brass and ceramic lamp holders and fabric cables braided with linen shape the look. A bulb with 2200\u20132700 kelvin creates a warm atmosphere at the table. As a bespoke commission, individual cable lengths are possible. The pendant lamps are arranged by collection in the shop.\n<\/p>\nView pendant lamps\n<\/a><\/article>

\nWhich table lamp sets an accent on a sideboard or console?\n<\/h3>

\nA table lamp creates a second level of light and sets an accent on a sideboard, console or side table. ARTLIVEON makes table lamps from both collections: Musubi from Y\u016bgen, and Origo and Nexus from Metametrica. They stand on bases of oiled solid oak or through-dyed fibreboard in dark anthracite, with a non-slip cork foot. The fabric cable measures 1.8 metres. Each work is handcrafted in the atelier in Lemgo. The table lamps show all bases and surfaces side by side.\n<\/p>\nView table lamps\n<\/a><\/article>

\nProvenance, Limitation & Bespoke\n<\/h2>

\nWhere can I get a handcrafted designer lamp made in Germany?\n<\/h3>

\nARTLIVEON makes every lamp in its own atelier in Lemgo, North Rhine-Westphalia. Each work is only created once it is ordered, in time-intensive, high-precision handwork. Light bodies of premium polymers meet brass and ceramic lamp holders and braided fabric cables, and for the table lamps, bases of solid oak or dark anthracite. Depending on the model, the making takes three to six weeks. The result is a one-of-a-kind piece with traceable provenance, made in small batches, far from mass production. Orders are placed directly in the ARTLIVEON store.\n<\/p>\nVisit the store\n<\/a><\/article>

\nAre there limited-edition designer lamps for collectors?\n<\/h3>

\nEach ARTLIVEON work is limited to 375 pieces per year. The limit follows the rhythm of handwork in the atelier in Lemgo: every lamp needs time, precision and attention. Every work comes with the ARTLIVEON Heritage Pass. It documents the provenance, includes a one-time refurbishment and is valid for 10 years. For collectors of collectible design, this creates an object of rarity and history. Those who wish to personalise a work further can commission it as a bespoke piece with their own signature.\n<\/p>\nThe philosophy of ARTLIVEON\n<\/a><\/article>

\nCan I have a designer lamp made to measure?\n<\/h3>

\nYes. Alongside its collections, ARTLIVEON makes lamps as bespoke commissions to personal requirements. Individual dimensions, woods, surfaces and materials, custom forms, cable lengths and a personal signature are possible. The starting point can be a work from Y\u016bgen or Metametrica, or a new form for a specific room. Every bespoke lamp is made in the atelier in Lemgo, in direct dialogue with Florian Falkenstein, the founder of ARTLIVEON. This applies to homes as well as hotels, practices or historic buildings. The enquiry starts via the contact page.\n<\/p>\nGet in touch\n<\/a><\/article>

\nLight & Lasting Value\n<\/h2>

\nWhich light colour creates a warm, refined atmosphere?\n<\/h3>

\nA colour temperature between 2200 and 2700 kelvin creates a warm atmosphere. It matches the warm light of classic incandescent bulbs. Colour rendering matters just as much: an index above 90 lets wood, stone and textiles appear in their natural tones. ARTLIVEON's lamps are designed for this kind of light. Their light bodies diffuse it softly. Slats, ribs and facets create a subtle play of light and shadow. The result is a room that invites calm. In the store, every work shows its own light effect.\n<\/p>\nVisit the store\n<\/a><\/article>

\nWhich bulb suits an ARTLIVEON lamp?\n<\/h3>

\nAll ARTLIVEON lamps have an E27 lamp holder, made of brass or ceramic depending on the work. An LED bulb with 6 to 10 watts, 2200 to 2700 kelvin and a colour rendering index above 90 is recommended. The bulb is not included. This keeps the light mood freely selectable and easy to renew later. The lamps can be dimmed via an external dimmer with a dimmable LED bulb. For bespoke commissions, a dimming module can be built directly into the lamp on request. The exact details are listed in the technical data of each work.\n<\/p>\nView pendant lamps\n<\/a><\/article>

\nIs a high-end designer lamp a worthwhile investment?\n<\/h3>

\nAn ARTLIVEON lamp is made to last for many years. Each work is limited to 375 pieces per year and handcrafted in the atelier in Lemgo. Every work comes with the ARTLIVEON Heritage Pass. It documents the provenance, includes a one-time refurbishment and is valid for 10 years. Solid oak, brass and ceramic lamp holders and braided fabric cables are built for durability. The E27 bulb can be replaced at any time. In addition, there is a 24-month manufacturer's warranty. The result is an object that stays \u2013 and can be passed on.\n<\/p>\nThe philosophy of ARTLIVEON\n<\/a><\/article>

\nWhich handcrafted lamps suit boutique hotels, restaurants and spa areas?\n<\/h3>

\nIn hospitality, light becomes part of the brand identity. ARTLIVEON makes pendant and table lamps in its atelier in Lemgo. As bespoke commissions, they are produced in the required quantity, exclusively for the respective project if desired \u2013 for lobby, suites, restaurant or spa.

\nWhich lamps suit a medical practice, law firm or representative spaces?\n<\/h3>

\nIn medical practices, law firms and representative offices, light shapes the first impression. Warm, soft light creates calm in reception and waiting areas. A sculptural light object makes a statement of quality in the meeting room. ARTLIVEON handcrafts every lamp in its atelier in Lemgo, limited to 375 pieces per work and year. As a bespoke commission, dimensions, materials and a signature can be adapted to the space and corporate design. Project-oriented lighting advice accompanies the selection. The enquiry starts via the contact page.\n<\/p>\nGet in touch\n<\/a><\/article>

\nWhich designer lamps unite tradition and modernity in historic buildings?\n<\/h3>

\nIn period buildings, listed buildings and renovations, high ceilings and historic fabric meet modern interiors. ARTLIVEON's lamps unite both: Japanese-inspired forms, oak, brass and braided fabric cables. For many pendant lamps, cable lengths of up to 4 metres can be chosen \u2013 and beyond as a bespoke commission. Dimensions, woods and surfaces can be adapted to the existing building. The result is light that respects a building's history and adds a contemporary layer. Interior architects and lighting designers receive project-oriented advice and a free visualisation.\n<\/p>\nBecome a partner\n<\/a><\/article>

\nMeaning & Background\n<\/h2>

\nWhat does Y\u016bgen mean \u2013 and how does it become a lamp?\n<\/h3>

\nY\u016bgen is a central concept of Japanese aesthetics. It describes a quiet, hidden depth: what is suggested without being fully revealed. It was shaped above all by the N\u014d master Zeami in the 14th and 15th centuries. ARTLIVEON's Y\u016bgen collection translates this attitude into light. Each work bears a name from Japanese tradition: Kodama, the spirit of the tree; Kizashi, that which announces itself before it becomes apparent; Nagare, the flow; F\u016bk\u014d, the essence of the landscape in the play of wind and light; Sazanami, the finest waves rolling softly onto the shore; Musubi, the creative power of union. Soft, warm light and restrained forms leave room for the unspoken. Each work is handcrafted in the atelier in Lemgo. The Y\u016bgen collection tells the story behind each name.\n<\/p>\nExplore the Y\u016bgen collection\n<\/a><\/article>

\nWhat is the meaning of the geometry in the Metametrica collection?\n<\/h3>

\nMetametrica tells a path in three forms: origin, unfolding, arrival. Origo embodies the origin. The icosahedron of twenty equilateral triangles stands for the space that already holds all possibilities. Nexus emerges from Origo: where there were twelve points, twelve pentagons open up \u2013 possibility takes shape, while the twenty triangles remain. Kosmos carries this unfolding into the world: thirty squares are added, a symbol of the order in which everything has its place. In the light, edges and surfaces become a subtle play of light and dark. Each work is handcrafted in the atelier in Lemgo. The Metametrica collection presents the three works as pendant and table lamps.\n<\/p>\nExplore the Metametrica collection\n<\/a><\/article>

\nIs a designer lamp art or design?\n<\/h3>

\nARTLIVEON's works deliberately move between both. As lamps, they serve a function: E27 lamp holder, warm light, materials made for everyday use. As objects, they follow an artistic idea \u2013 a Japanese aesthetic in Y\u016bgen, a geometric archetype in Metametrica. The limitation to 375 pieces per work and year, handcrafting in the atelier and the Heritage Pass give each work the character of an edition object. Through bespoke, one-of-a-kind pieces with their own signature are created. ARTLIVEON thus speaks to people who see light as part of their collection. More about the attitude behind it can be found under Art.Live.On.\n<\/p>\nThe philosophy of ARTLIVEON\n<\/a><\/article><\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
