Nikau Suspension

David Trubridge is an acclaimed New Zealand design house celebrated for its mastery of sculptural ethereality and its pioneering approach to sustainable high end illumination. Founded by the English born boat builder and designer of the same name, the brand has evolved from a small workshop in Whakatu into a global authority for organic kit set lighting. Today, the company is a primary resource for architects and interior designers seeking biophilic elegance, offering a prestigious catalog of intricate geometric pendants and floor lamps that serve as the artistic heart of a modern space.

What truly distinguishes David Trubridge is its unwavering commitment to environmental integrity and the masterful use of sustainably sourced bamboo plywood. The brand’s philosophy centers on the belief that design should reflect the patterns of the natural world, utilizing complex mathematical structures such as the iconic Coral and Floral fixtures to cast dramatic forest like shadows. By prioritizing a Seed System shipping method, which reduces the carbon footprint by delivering fixtures as flat pack kits for on site assembly, the brand ensures its products provide a professional grade aesthetic without compromising ecological values. This dedication to technical precision and natural modernist silhouettes results in a signature look of timeless weightlessness, making their lighting an essential, soulful element of any curated residential or commercial environment.
