Atelier Luxus

What Atelier Luxus does

Atelier Luxus is a Belgian manufacturer founded in 1995 that designs and produces luxury bespoke switches, sockets, and architectural electrical devices crafted from solid brass with handmade patinas. The company targets luxury hospitality projects and high-end residential interiors, serving an international client base across Western Europe, the Middle East, North Africa, Southeast Asia, and the Caribbean. Its products are specified by world-renowned architects and designers — including Philippe Starck, Jean-Louis Deniot, Studio KO, Glenn Sestig, Charles Zana, and Pierre Yovanovitch — and have been installed in iconic properties such as Hôtel Plaza Athénée (Paris), La Mamounia (Marrakech), Le Coucou (Méribel), Hotel Crillon le Brave, and Banyan Tree AlUla.

The company operates three core collections — Edges (variants Noor, Facet, Hope/Regent, Grace, Tiara), Heritage (Carat, Hope), and Designer (DoT by Erpicum) — alongside a Bespoke Service, Reading Lights, Floor Boxes, and a Hospitality product line. All products begin as solid brass plates (3mm standard; 4mm for Tiara) with brass screws and undergo hand-developed patina finishes including mirror polish, brushed, sanded, vibrated, and oxidised treatments. Atelier Luxus integrates with major home and building automation ecosystems including KNX, Niko Home Control, Crestron, and Lutron, enabling specification within modern smart-building infrastructure while preserving the artisanal aesthetic.

Revenue is generated through project-based, made-to-order manufacturing with quotation-based pricing (no public list), requiring a 50% deposit on order confirmation and balance before removal, with quotations valid for 30 days and subject to metal price adjustments. The go-to-market combines direct architectural specification, regional distribution partnerships (Bolibar Bronzes in Barcelona, ALVICO in Madrid, LEGIO in Copenhagen), and consistent trade show presence across ARCHITECT@WORK, Maison & Objet, Light + Building Frankfurt, EQUIPHOTEL, and INDEX exhibitions. Following its 2021 acquisition by Prado Group — a privately held international home-technology platform with 150+ colleagues across Europe, North America, and the Middle East — Atelier Luxus gained access to broader distribution infrastructure while retaining its artisanal Belgian manufacturing base in Aywaille/Harzé.
