About
Tom Dixon is a British design company that produces lighting, furniture and accessories, based in London. Founded and led by the designer Tom Dixon, it is known for a distinctive aesthetic drawing on industrial materials and metallic finishes such as copper, brass and steel. Its products are aimed at residential, hospitality and contract interiors and sold internationally. The company was established in 2002 in London, where it is based, including a long-running home at Kings Cross. Its founder, Tom Dixon, is a largely self-taught designer who came to prominence in the 1980s with welded-metal and salvage furniture, and who designed the widely noted S-Chair while working with the Italian company Cappellini before starting his own brand. Tom Dixon's products are characterised by sculptural forms and metallic and reflective finishes. Among its well-known lighting designs are the Mirror Ball, the Copper Shade and the Beat range of hand-finished brass pendants, while its furniture includes pieces such as the Wingback chair. Lighting is an especially prominent part of the catalogue, alongside furniture and a range of accessories and scents. The company combines design, manufacturing oversight and retail under the Tom Dixon brand, with the founder serving as creative director, and it has expanded internationally with hubs in several cities. It also operates an interiors and design-studio side alongside its product business. Tom Dixon's products are used in homes, restaurants, hotels and other interiors and are sold through its own stores and website, design retailers and showrooms internationally. As a London-based design company built around its founder's distinctive material-led aesthetic, Tom Dixon spans lighting, furniture and accessories.
