Home and Garden Awards 2025 | 13 A lighting and furniture brand with a twist, Varaluz prides itself on being almost the exact opposite of most other lighting companies on the market today. Driven by an unwavering commitment to sustainability, all of the light fixtures and home furnishings it creates are done so by hand using only eco-friendly materials. Offering cool designs with a conscience, we take a deep dive into this premium brand that is redefining what it means to be “eco” below. Best Eco-Friendly Luxury Lighting Company 2025 – USA which we believe strike a perfect balance between being unique and undisputedly exceptional. Remarkably, these collections are just the beginning, and a recent collaboration with the Smithsonian has allowed Ron and the team to push design boundaries even further, drawing inspiration from the more than 155 million artifacts the Smithsonian boasts to help any home reach new heights. Given that Ron is a former pilot and was previously an engineer for Boeing, this partnership is particularly special for him and represents a dream coming true. Just like the Smithsonian, Varaluz’s mission is to offer a collection of products ranging from ancient design to modern-day innovations, and this is something that the products in this collaboration embody perfectly. Across more than 130 products spanning everything from pendant kitchen lights to mirrors, wall art, and tables, practicality meets playfulness and enriching designs tell tales of humanity’s triumphs. Outside of this collab, Varaluz is also immensely proud to be able to bring the visions of its clients to life through a full-service custom division – whereby the team here roll up their sleeves and do everything within their power to turn dreams into tangible realities. Taking its clients’ ideas from inspiration to realisation in a maximum of 120 days, quotes are provided within less than 24 hours of initial inquiry, setting the wheels in motion for the creation of a bespoke centrepiece that is unlike anything else in existence. For those after something that is just as special but not quite as bespoke, Varaluz has a few showrooms in the US that can be explored by appointment during market periods, or even virtually from the comfort of a person’s own home at a time that suits them. Blending this technological innovation with the classic days of interior design, the company also offers seasonal online catalogues of its curated lighting, mirror, and décor collections – cutting down on the unnecessary use of paper. Having featured in a variety of publications over the years and received outstanding feedback from the industry and its clients alike, it is our privilege to recognise Varaluz as a winner in our Home and Garden Awards 2025.

In a world where eco-friendly designs almost always look too “eco”, this company sets itself apart by creating designs so premium that they wipe the slate clean and rewrite everything a person thought they knew about what can be achieved using planet-friendly methods. To truly underpin that Varaluz is serious about its mission, impressive statistics such as it using almost 67 tonnes of recycled steel and 20 tonnes of recycled glass across its fixtures in one year alone bolster these claims. Its commitment to the cause be seen further through it using almost half the amount of packaging as other manufacturers in this space, all the while guaranteeing that its fixtures will arrive safely and securely. Aside from pushing the boundaries when it comes to sustainable methods, Varaluz is equally committed to setting a new standard in design excellence. Far surpassing traditional designs, the company has garnered a reputation for itself as being “lightly twisted”, with Founder Ron Henderson describing this as the “most succinct way I know of dealing with our design ethos.” In essence, this demonstrates a unique ability to mix elements that in theory should not work and create something truly magnificent out of them. When it comes to lighting solutions specifically, Varaluz’s eccentric designs span everything from wall sconces and vanity lights to hanging chandeliers, pendants, flush-mounts, and even floor and table lamps. With more than 500 comprising its range, it would be impossible to give all of the items the credit they deserve.
