Lighting design can elevate a space, and one company that understands this is Hubbardton Forge. With over 50 years of experience, this Vermont-based lighting company has perfected the art of hand-forged lighting, offering a range of designs from traditional to modern, all customizable to suit any interior.
To delve deeper into what makes Hubbardton Forge so special, we spoke with well-known designer Jeanne Chung, founder and Creative Director of Cozy Stylish Chic, who has been partnering with this brand for nearly a decade.
Versatile and Iconic Hand-Forged Light Fixtures
“I think that Hubbardton Forge really encompasses a variety of aesthetics,” says Jeanne. “It can go from traditional to modern, and anything in between, depending on the finishes you select. Everything is customizable, so you can really tailor it to the space you’re designing for.”
One of the lighting designs Jeanne points out is a piece by David Kitts, which combines metal and stone into a sculptural art piece. Another original design, by Ori Goldberg, merges artistry with functionality. “The designer of this collection is actually a jewelry designer,” Jeanne notes. “When a designer for Hubbardton Forge creates a collection, they offer multiple ways to incorporate it into a home.”
Sustainable Art in Lighting
Hubbardton Forge values not only design but also sustainability. “This coral light is from their Art and Alchemy Collection,” Jeanne shares. “It’s made from aluminum waste, recycled and repurposed into a sculptural piece.”
Additionally, their fixtures contain field-replaceable LED components, ensuring longevity and reducing waste. “If you ever have a problem, they can be replaced,” Jeanne explains. “Some pieces can work as a room divider, and are adaptable for different settings.”
A Lighting Design Partnership Built on Authenticity
Jeanne appreciates Hubbardton Forge’s commitment to quality and sustainability. “Everything I believe in is what they do and practice every day. It just feels very authentic to me to have partnered with such a brand.”
As an American company, Hubbardton Forge continues to set the standard for successful domestic manufacturing. By prioritizing their commitment to innovation, sustainability, and craftsmanship, they have preserved traditional blacksmithing techniques and grown into a model of what thriving American manufacturing can look like. It’s easy to see why designers like Jeanne Chung love this brand and why Hubbardton Forge remains a top choice for iconic, custom lighting.
