    David Village Lighting is an independent, family run company specialising in decorative and architectural designer lighting for both residential and commercial clients. Our contemporary lighting and furniture portfolio is curated from over 80 highly sought after brands including Artemide, Flos, Louis Poulsen, Muuto and Tom Dixon.


  • David Village Lighting was founded in 1981 by David and his wife Liz. Inspired by their passion for interior design and their understanding of the importance of lighting as a design feature, David and Liz opened their first designer lighting store on Ecclesall Road, Sheffield. They soon formed established relationships with some of the world's greatest design icons such as Flos and Artemide and moved their store to West Street. As their business and portfolio of designer brands grew, more space was needed to showcase the wide range of designer lighting and create more office and warehouse space and so the search was on for a bigger property. In January 2019 David Village Lighting found its new home on Ashgate Road in Broomhill, Sheffield.

    With 40 years' experience in the industry, we source, stock and distribute designer lighting around the world.
