NYCxDesign | Taking Inventory Exhibition

Embracing the ethos of Industry 4.0, RBW reimagines lighting for the 21st-century, pairing beautiful, expressive design with advanced technology and engineering. In our forward-thinking, experimentally-driven approach, the end result is lighting out of the ordinary: statement pieces that take on unprecedented shapes, or staple pieces that make subtle upgrades on familiar forms.

RBW from Anywhere

When we think about the future of work for our team, the fixed-five-days-a-week in the Factory or Showroom seems like a requirement from the distant pass. As we consider the evolution of how we work, it's clear that Work from Anywhere is here to stay.

Shop Talk with Tom Hancocks Vol. 5

This year, we invited Hancocks to launch RBW’s visual artist residency, a new series of artist and designer collaborations aimed at creating unique visual experiences. As our first resident, Hancocks designed three immersive and stunningly detailed fictional environments—two workspaces and one resort—for RBW XR, our 360-degree, extended reality platform for viewing our products in situ. Here, Hancocks walks us through his subconscious approach to design, and describes the perks of cross-disciplinary collaboration.
