MEET THE BRAND: CAFE LIGHTING & LIVING
CAFE LIGHTING & LIVING IS A FAMILY-OWNED BUSINESS THAT PRIDES ITSELF ON DELIVERING HAPPINESS TO HOMES. SPECIALISING IN LUXURY FURNITURE, LIGHTING, AND HOME ACCESSORIES, THE BRAND HAS BECOME AN INDUSTRY LEADER, LOVED BY INTERIOR DESIGNERS AND HOMEOWNERS ALIKE.
BRAND HISTORY
In 1995, the founding CAFE Lighting company began by supplying a limited range of table lamps to national discount retail chains in high volumes. As part of this early success story, the iconic Espresso Touch Lamp was imported and distributed, eventually reaching sales past the $1 million mark.
The following ten years built upon this early success, expanding from touch lamps into chandeliers, pendants, and floor lamp ranges. Designer furniture and homewares came next, creating an umbrella of all-inclusive style for the commercial, wholesale, and trade markets. The new categories were reflected in a rebrand in 2004 when the company became what we know and love today: Cafe Lighting & Living.
A PASSION FOR INTERNATIONAL STYLE
The brand has morphed and grown tremendously over the past 25 years, thanks to its devotion to great style, and standout design. Based in Australia, the passionate team travels to gather inspiration from around the world, including destinations such as Italy, Paris, China, and India. Led by its founder Frank Laureti and the Laureti family, Cafe Lighting & Living delivers on-trend collections to satisfy the discerning Australian interior design market.
The enthusiastic team delivers a product launch every February and July at the Sydney and Melbourne Decor + Decoration and Gift Trade fairs. Their presentation includes a host of statement products and elaborate container displays. Cafe Lighting & Living was the proud winner of Best Stand for three years in a row at Decoration and Design Melbourne.
TIMELESS HOME DECOR
Above all, Cafe Lighting & Living products carry a distinctive yet timeless appeal. This makes them perfect for styling, staging and selling extraordinary homes. These adaptable pieces can be reimagined in the construction of alternate interiors, and reused again and again.
Working closely with property stylists, interior designers, and trade professionals, the Cafe Lighting & Living team supplies statement product collections in a wide variety of aesthetics. You’ll find pieces to match a multitude of home styles right here at House of Isabella, including coastal, traditional, transitional, and more.
