“I believe that light is a basic necessity for life. It also has a mission to elevate the human experience. For designers, this is the holy grail—designing lighting that makes us feel good, that promotes well-being, while also allowing us to see our work and focus.” —Pablo Pardo

Lighting is a primary feature that helps draw people in and defines spaces. It does more than make a statement—it has an impact on the well-being of people. Lighting can influence mood, energy level, and comfort— all important for how people perform, no matter what space they’re in. According to the American Society of Interior Designers, 68 percent of employees complain about the lighting situation in their offices, influencing designers to make lighting a priority in space design.

People expect more from their work environments—and the more personal control they have, the better they feel. Nothing transforms an environment like lighting— when the design is right it elevates the potential of space, contributing to an effective and engaged workforce.

Pablo Designs has partnered with Haworth since 2008, blending their lighting innovation with leadership in interiors to ensure every space fulfills its potential and purpose. Inspired by the purity of light’s essence and its ability to reveal and define environments, Pablo Designs fuses beauty and utility to create designs that deepen the relationship between objects, their users, and their environments.
