Eva Menz for Atelier001 is a collection of graceful lighting pieces from the London-based studio of illumination master Eva Menz. The sleek works call to mind Scandinavian modern design, sometimes with understated Art Deco silhouettes. Menz creates every type of lighting fixture for the modern home, including chandeliers, sconces, table lamps and floor lamps.
Menz was born and raised in Munich. In the 2000s, she moved to the United Kingdom and studied product design at Central Saint Martins, part of the University of the Arts London. At Saint Martins, she experimented with melding art and design techniques. Upon graduating, Menz showcased and sold two chandeliers at the International Contemporary Furniture Fair in New York City.
She soon began receiving commissions to design architectural lighting installations — one as large as 36 feet. Over the next two decades, Menz worked with private clients all around the world. Among them were big-name designers like Timothy Godbold, Jeremiah Brent and David Rockwell. However, she recognized that her monumental lighting creations aren't suitable for the average home. In 2019, Menz established Atelier001 for home and business lighting on a smaller, everyday scale.
"Atelier001 offers wider access to some beautifully made pieces," Menz told Introspective magazine. "I think of it as mass production with more of an individual touch." The brand’s metal fixtures feature warm brass finishes and a sculptural appeal. Menz always obscures the light source, making the piece all about its sculptural structure and the subtle illumination it casts.
Although the Atelier001 brand is more accessible and made for a wider audience, every fixture is crafted and finished entirely by hand at Menz's London studio in Notting Hill. The “001” stands for the fact that each is a one-of-a-kind creation. In addition to lighting, Menz plans to expand the offerings of her studio to include furniture and accessories.
