Nova of California
Venice Beach, CA
Imagine a design journey that spans over a century of West Coast innovation—a vision that Nova of California has translated into high-impact sculptural lighting for the modern residence. Since its 1923 debut in Venice Beach, the brand has established itself as a definitive authority for those seeking "functional art" through the mastery of mixed materials and bold, architectural silhouettes. Today, Montreal Lighting & Hardware serves as a primary resource for designers requiring these sophisticated solutions—from the iconic, multi-arm arc lamps of the Jon Gilmore collections to the innovative integration of infinity mirrors and natural woods—that anchor the most prestigious residential environments.
What truly distinguishes Nova is its unwavering commitment to "material contrast" and the masterful execution of hand-finished textures. The brand’s philosophy centers on the belief that a light fixture should be a statement piece even when unlit, utilizing premium materials like solid walnut, brushed aluminum, and tempered glass to create pieces that are both technically precise and visually evocative. By prioritizing a versatile design language that bridges the gap between retro-inspired organic warmth and sleek, metropolitan minimalism, the brand ensures its products provide a professional-grade aesthetic for any curated space. This dedication to technical integrity and bold, geometric silhouettes results in a signature look of modern sophistication, making their lighting and accent furniture an essential, high-impact element of any well-designed contemporary interior.
