Vlad Oganov Objects is a contemporary lighting studio based in Warsaw, creating sculptural lamps through digital fabrication and small–series production. The brand explores 3D printing as a design and making tool to achieve a timeless aesthetic, tactile surfaces, and softly diffused light. Influenced by Bauhaus clarity and Italian design of the 1970s, each lamp is conceived as a complete object—visually engaging both when illuminated and when at rest. Designed as integral elements of an interior, the objects shape atmosphere through warmth, proportion, and calm presence, combining modern technology with a craft–driven approach to lighting.
