Ambientec, a Japanese light design company founded in 2009, envisions creating portable, indestructible lights with integrated LED technology, maintaining comfort and elegance. This philosophy is evident in its designs, each embracing a poetic quality of light that engages in a friendly dialogue with the illuminated space. Even turned off, Ambientec lights add beauty to any environment. Originally specializing in protective underwater cases for professional photography equipment, Ambientec's roots contributed expertise in creating portable gear resistant to extreme conditions. This background led to its venture into portable lamp design, exploring new frontiers in lighting for everyday spaces, indoors and outdoors.

Ambientec lamps will encourage both physical and visual interaction, boasting an artistic design that embraces an intense purity of form and solid material quality. All Ambientec models, including the newly launched "madco," together with the newly designed model created in collaboration with Norm Architects will be featured. Ambientec is proud to be part of Enter the Salon for this year’s 3daysofdesign. Curated by designer Signe Hytte, Enter the Salon is a space where design, art and poetry converge, creating a seamless blend of the past with the present. Brought to life in a special townhouse steeped in history in the heart of Copenhagen, the exhibition is designed to provide a haven for quiet reflection, casual conversation, and the exploration of new perspectives.
