Andrew Martin founder, Martin Waller, once said, 'My design philosophy is to focus on walls, lighting and objects. These will have the biggest impact on a room and the rest will fall into place.'
So, having pioneered trompe l'oeil wallpaper in 2010 and with
Martin constantly topping up the toy box with global treasures,
this year we are roaring let there be
light! We have launched over 450 new lighting
products, across ceiling
and pendant lights, wall
lights, table
and desk lamps, floor
lamps and outdoor lanterns, with the aim of adding sculpture,
atmosphere and light-up drama to your home. As well as online,
these pieces are exhibited in a brand-new part of our
Walton Street showroom in an electrifying Lighting Gallery.

At Andrew Martin, we believe inspiration comes from people. One
of the remarkable achievements of our age is the ability to travel
the world, exposing us to different human histories and a vast
range of cultural design influences. As curators of style, whether
liberating ancient silks from Thailand or harnessing neon posters
from Miami, for this collection we have looked towards some of the
best global designers to craft illuminating magic.
At the helm, Kelly Wearstler provides signature soulful spirit
and modern spontaneity with a ceiling light that resembles an
exploding supernova and crystal rocks which light up with an
ethereal glow. Alexa Hampton gives table and wall lights
high-design silhouettes and ravishing detail where Aerin Lauder
instils the sleek finishes of European mid-century style. E.F.
Chapman and Thomas O'Brien manipulate traditional designs with a
modern twist, including Florentine wall candelabra and outdoor
neo-Victorian lamps.
