Our Story

Lippe was born out of a desire to approach lighting design in a personal and unconventional way – to combine light, form, and atmosphere with a distinctive touch. There has always been a fascination with different materials, and during design studies, the need to work with something other than traditional wood or metal emerged. The goal was to bring elements into the design that resonate deeply: color, transparency, lightness – and a hint of surprise. Acrylic was chosen for its compelling balance between visual appeal and functionality.

Plastic is often viewed critically, but it's easy to forget that when used thoughtfully and responsibly, it can be a durable and sustainable material. Lippe’s lamps are carefully handcrafted in Finland, designed to last in both form and function.

The visual vision behind each piece is allowed to take space – sometimes with odd or unexpected shapes – making the designs truly one-of-a-kind. Each model begins with an idea that lingers, that stays in the mind – eventually transforming into an object that finds its place in someone’s home.

Lippe is a small but passionately created collection of characterful light.

Designer

Behind the Lippe lamps is Liisa – an industrial designer and the founder of the brand.

What fascinates me most in lighting design is how light can completely transform the atmosphere of a space and create a unique ambiance. As a designer, I’m inspired by the interplay of light and shadow, organic forms, and artistic expression. I aim to create lamps that are not only functional, but also visually striking and timeless.

Vision & Design Philosophy

The goal was to create lamps that are more than just sources of light—they're also striking interior elements that speak to their users and complete a space. Behind Lippe lies a vision of timeless design and light that brings spaces to life.

1. Sustainable Design

Modern aesthetics and artistic expression come together in lighting that remains relevant year after year.

2. High-Quality & Durable Materials

All materials are carefully selected with longevity, visual appeal, and sustainability in mind.

3. Light That Sets the Mood

Each lamp is designed to complement different spaces and atmospheres. The final tone and intensity of the light are easy to adjust by changing the bulb—whether you're after a calming evening glow or energizing task lighting, it's up to you.

Design from Finland

26.9.2025 alkaen Lippe-valaisimilla on Design from Finland -merkki. Merkki kertoo, että tuotteeni on suunniteltu Suomessa ammattimaisesti ja käyttäjälähtöisesti, ja että suomalainen muotoiluosaaminen saa ansaitsemansa huomion.

Minulle tämä merkki merkitsee paljon. Lippe-valaisimet syntyvät rakkaudesta muotoiluun ja luovuuteen. Osa valaisimista on ajattomia ja rauhallisia, osa taas leikkisiä ja rohkeasti trendejä seuraavia. Yhdessä ne muodostavat kokoelman, joka tuo koteihin valoa, iloa ja kauniita hetkiä.

Olen ylpeä siitä, että voin olla osa suomalaista muotoilun tarinaa ja luoda tuotteita, jotka kestävät aikaa niin materiaalien, laadun kuin muotokielen puolesta, mutta jotka samalla elävät tässä hetkessä.
