Nivasa Launches Sculptural Lighting Collection

09 Jun 2026 CW Team

Nivasa has introduced a curated collection of sculptural lighting pieces that explore light as a defining element of interior design. The collection focuses on how illumination can shape mood, atmosphere and spatial character beyond its functional purpose.

The range includes lighting pieces designed for living rooms, dining areas and entertainment spaces. Nivasa said the collection treats lighting as architecture suspended in air, helping define volumes, highlight textures and create a sense of visual drama within interiors.

The designs bring together layered metallic compositions, woven textures, sculptural silhouettes and organic forms. Some fixtures draw inspiration from fluid ribbons, while others reflect handcrafted textiles, natural fibres and abstract artistic influences.

The collection balances statement-making design with everyday usability. The lights are designed to diffuse illumination softly, enhancing furniture, artwork and architectural details without overwhelming the space.

Nivasa said the launch reflects its larger design philosophy, where lighting works in dialogue with furniture, material palettes and spatial planning. The brand added that its pieces are intended to bring presence, personality and a sense of occasion to homes that serve multiple roles, from work and retreat to gathering and entertaining.

Founded by Rohit Kapoor in 1993, Nivasa offers luxury furniture and lifestyle products, including beds, sofas, dining tables, bar tops, ottomans, chandeliers and consoles. The brand blends Indian craftsmanship with innovative techniques, materials and customisation solutions."
