Jacco Maris Design

What Jacco Maris Design does

Jacco Maris Design is a privately held Dutch architectural lighting design company founded in 1994 by Jacco Maris and headquartered in Breda, Netherlands, with a secondary professional-only showroom in Culemborg. The company designs, produces, and sells handcrafted lighting fixtures built primarily from metal materials, including stainless steel, black steel, brass, and solid bronze, with LED light sources and powder-coated finishes. Its catalog comprises more than 20 distinct collections spanning suspension lamps, wall lamps, floor lamps, and chandeliers (e.g., Ace, Benben, Brass-O, Clark, Coco, Fosh, Framed, Hall-O, Insider, Keep It Straight, Mrs.Q, Myka, Needles & Pins, Ode 1647, Ono, Outsider, Oval, Solo, Tubular, What?), each combining standard product offerings with project-level customizability.

The company operates an in-house metalworking atelier in Breda, enabling both series production and bespoke Specials & Studio work for offices, public spaces, hospitality, and luxury residential environments. Technically, the differentiation rests on integrated lighting-in-steel-frame construction (light lines within hot-rolled steel profiles), powder-coated finishes for durability, and handcrafted metalworking techniques. Go-to-market is B2B and project-driven: products are specified by interior professionals (architects, interior designers, lighting consultants) and reach end customers through a regional dealer network, supported by a dealer portal, free SketchUp 3D models, social channels (Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, LinkedIn), and trade exhibitions such as Design District at Van Nelle Fabriek Rotterdam. Revenue is generated through one-time sales of lighting fixtures via dealers and directly to interior professionals, with quote-based pricing for custom projects; no pricing is publicly disclosed. Named project references include Marriott Hotel Nassau Breda and ASML plaza, among others.
