Enter the Maison Forestier, where light penetrates everywhere and winds through the interior with its transparency. A unique place where each room is thought out to offer passionately illuminated emotions. These lights are the creations of our designers who play with wire and transparency, with the idea of respecting nature in all its forms and the human being by favoring craftsmanship ...
Welcome to a world full of poetry and the highest quality expectations.
At Forestier we have a special a line of editorial graphics where passion, freedom and discovery come together. These three essential values for us are found in our lighting, from lamp suspensions and street lamps that radiate poetry and nature in a perfect balance between design and craftsmanship.

In keeping with the spirit of its founder Bernard Forestier, we design items with a strong identity but still accessible to as many people as possible. The designs of our creations should be beautiful, useful and accessible. We choose recognized or emerging talents to create our facilities, with one mandate: be bold and set a new trend: Arik Levy - Laurence Brabant - Emmanuel Gallina - Christian Ghion - Noé Duchaufour-Lawrence - Elise Fouin - Jette Scheib - Anon Pairot - Katarina Sokolova - Marc Venot.

Our values
We are a real passion. Passionate about the quality of the facilities we design. Passionate about trade that affects people and culture. He is passionate about creating lighting that triggers new emotions.
Without this passion, the adventure with Forestier would never be possible.

We are really illuminated. To be free is to be able to make your own choices, away from prescriptions. We choose raw and innovative materials. We decide to imagine and produce unique items. We make a conscious choice to give our designers carte blanche so that they can express themselves… in complete freedom.

We are explorers. Curiosity is our hallmark. We've always supported the pioneering spirit, nurtured the courage to go on, favored the uniqueness of the goal, and encouraged discovery through all of our creations. This spirit of openness is reflected in each of our creations.

History
Over time, Forestier has made a name for himself by striving for continual originality and mastering the delicate balance between nature and design. The sophistication of clean lines, bold choices of raw and authentic materials are optimized by the work of artisans that has become her trademark.

1992-2001 DESIGN BY NATURE

It all started with passion man, Bernard Forestier. A big fan of French gardens, he was fascinated by the artistic sculptures of topiary that shaped them: proper proportions, balance, elegant intertwining straight lines and curves. This creative spirit wanted to shake up the traditions of the lighting design world by bringing the art of botany into the home. He opted for braided wire, which would become one of the brand's favorite themes. He liked woven rusty metal, zinc or iron. He has shown poetry and humor to bring things to life.

2002-2011 LUXURY NATURALLY

After Bernard Forestier left, the company changed course, ten years after its founding . At the request of Hélène Forestier, Gilles Dallière took over the artistic direction and emphasized the desire for each piece to be "something special". This change was a turning point for a company that focuses on luxury and everything natural with great sobriety. The form becomes refined by highlighting light and color without losing the unique elegance of craftsmanship.

FROM 2012 NEW NATURE

Hélène Forestier handed over the baton to Jean Dominique Leze, whom we were already owed «107 Rivoli» to the decorative arts and the company ENO (New Objects Edition) with François Bernard.
With this nomination, Forestier rediscovered himself and produced a creative and poetic brand with design, nature and raw materials at anchor points . A brand that puts function and consumer first, with a responsible approach, but always at affordable prices.
