5 Interior Design Lighting Favorites from Ingo Maurer

Irwin Weiner ASID - I love to window shop, and whenever I'm in Soho, I take a quick spin around the lighting district stores. One of my favorites is Munich-based Ingo Maurer on 89 Grand Street. Their modern artistic sensibilities take my breath away; so chic and yet ultimately playful. If you could squeeze interior designers and distill their essence ... well, mine would be "equal parts artistic, playful, and whimsical" and Ingo Maurer's lighting would fit that Irwin Juice to a tee. Here are some of my favorites from their line - click here to see more styles and product information.
