This former farmhouse was entirely redesigned by its owners. They have created a unique, light living space and complemented it with several pieces from our collection; not only great-looking pieces, but definitely also great in size. The Elephant in the living room for instance, could definitely be categorized as a statement piece. It fuses perfectly with the exposed wooden poles that are part of the original skeleton of the house.

During the DDR-era, these industrial lights were placed high on wooden or concrete poles, and illuminated outside areas from great heights. It originally featured a 1000 watt light bulb, and was found along railway tracks or on military complexes.

We placed the fixture on a piece of Basralocus wood, weighting almost 100 kilograms. This socket used to be a docking piling at one of the many bridges of Amsterdam. The fact that this extraordinary piece of wood has been in the water for 40 years is clearly reflected in its beautiful erosion markings.

The Black Elephant comes with a warm LED bulb (E27 / 2200K), a 1,5 meter matt black cable including grounded plug, and its passport describing the history and origin of the lamp.

Blom & Blom is about two brothers who share a passion for unique items. Epic in their origin and design, and each with its own story to tell. Items often overlooked but always with a hidden potential, calling out to be discovered and appreciated. Items so special that they deserve a new life.

We craft lighting fixtures inspired by our fascination with industrial artifacts. Our Heritage Collection offers a selection of distinctive lamps recovered from abandoned factories, and carefully restored with respect for their past. Each comes with a ‘passport’, sharing its own unique history.

Under the name ‘Blom & Blom Editions’, we also present our own creations. With this singular collection, we transform ‘ordinary’ industrial objects into phenomenal design. By taking them beyond their original purpose and into a new dimension, we aim to reveal the essence and purity of the object itself.

All of our pieces are handcrafted in Amsterdam by a team of craftsmen, designers and engineers. We also develop bespoke lighting concepts for architects and interior designers, and enjoy seeing our work come to life in interiors around the world.
