Flos continues to set direction for the entire lighting industry.

Shop Flos Lighting by Category

Flos builds across every fixture category. Each piece carries the same attention to material, proportion, and light quality. Browse the full range by type:

  • Flos Pendant Lights: Skygarden, Taraxacum, and Frisbi anchor a dining room or entry with sculptural presence. Suspension designs range from delicate glass to bold statement scale.
  • Flos Linear Suspensions: Almendra, Wireline, and Belt light rectangular tables and kitchen islands evenly from end to end.
  • Flos Floor Lamps: Arco, Superloon, and Noctambule work as furniture and light source at once. These floor lamps hold a room on their own.
  • Flos Table Lamps: Miss K, Kelvin, and IC Lights T1 suit bedsides, desks, and console tables. Compact scale, full design credibility.
  • Flos Wall Sconces: Foglio, Clessidra, Glo-Ball, and Oplight deliver ambient and task light. Wall designs range from minimal to architectural.
  • Flos Flush Mounts: Skynest and Glo-Ball wall and ceiling designs solve low-ceiling rooms without sacrificing presence.
  • Flos Outdoor Lighting: Captain Flint, KTribe F3, and SuperArchimoon carry the same design language onto patios, gardens, and terraces.

Designers Behind Flos

Flos owes much of that reputation to the designers the brand works with. These partnerships produced fixtures that outlast trend cycles:

  • Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni: Creators of the Arco and Snoopy lamps. Both designs still shape how the industry thinks about form.
  • Philippe Starck: The Miss K and Ktribe series define a modern luxury language.
  • Jasper Morrison: The Glo-Ball series strips lighting down to essential geometry.
  • Patricia Urquiola: The Tatou and Almendra series pair elegance with unexpected form.
  • Michael Anastassiades: The IC Lights series balances brass, glass, and gravity with real restraint.

Flos Design Philosophy

Flos works at the intersection of art, technology, and manufacturing. The brand treats light as a way to transform a space rather than simply fill one. Experiments with new materials and light sources produced a catalogue that reads as both current and permanent. Prestigious homes, offices, and public buildings worldwide specify Flos for exactly that reason.

Buying guide
How to Choose Flos Lighting

Start with the room, then the lighting layer, then the fixture type.

Start with the layer
Decide whether the fixture provides ambient, task, or accent light before shopping by shape. A pendant over an island does task work. A floor lamp beside a sofa does ambient.
Match scale to the room
Flos runs from the compact Mini Glo-Ball to the 8-foot reach of Arco. Measure ceiling height and surface dimensions first, since an undersized fixture reads as an afterthought.
Pick a finish family
Brass, black, white, chrome, and natural glass run across the catalogue. Choosing one family and repeating that choice across rooms holds a house together better than matching each fixture to its own room.
Plan the dimming
Most Flos fixtures run integrated LED. Confirm driver and dimmer compatibility before ordering, because mismatched dimmers cause flicker and buzz.

Common questions
Flos Lighting FAQ
Which Flos fixture is the most iconic?
Arco, designed by Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni in 1962, remains the most recognized. The marble base and steel arc reach over a dining table with no ceiling connection needed.
Do Flos fixtures use replaceable bulbs?
Older designs take standard bulbs. Newer models run integrated LED, where the light source sits built into the fixture. The product page lists the light source for each item.
Are Flos lights dimmable?
Most models support dimming. Integrated LED versions need a compatible dimmer, so check the driver specification on the product page before ordering.
How long does Flos delivery take in Canada?
Stocked items ship within a few business days. Special-order finishes and made-to-order designs run longer. Our team confirms lead time before you order.
Does Flos offer outdoor-rated fixtures?
Yes. Captain Flint, KTribe F3, Super Archimoon, Clessidra Outdoor, and Romeo Outdoor all carry outdoor ratings. Check the IP rating against your exposure.
Which Flos designs work in small spaces?
Mini Glo-Ball, Miss K, Bilboquet, and Tab suit apartments and compact rooms. Each delivers the design language at a smaller footprint.
Do you ship Flos across Canada?
Yes. Free shipping applies on orders over $199, with nationwide delivery and a Montreal showroom for viewing in person.
