Our Story

The Montauk Lighting Co. is a boutique Australian lighting consultancy. A destination for exploring and sourcing designer lighting from around the world. Focusing on exceptional quality and iconic design for residential homes, commercial and hospitality projects, we simplify finding the perfect feature lighting to create beautifully illuminated spaces.

Established in 2016, The Montauk Lighting Co. was born from a love of transitional American interiors. Our original range of lighting was inspired by the architecture of New York, and in particular, Long Island. For this reason, we are named after the peninsula’s easternmost point, Montauk.

Our lighting collection has since evolved to represent a range of best-in-class global talent. From bespoke ateliers like Haberdashery, to established masters in the ilk of Tom Dixon and Visual Comfort & Co. with designer collections including Ralph Lauren Home, Kelly Wearstler and AERIN. We are equally proud to celebrate exceptional Australian design through our representation of The Modern Traditionalists and their lighting collaborations with Australian designers and tastemakers.

Our partners share our exacting standards, commitment to quality and appreciation for the transformational nature of light. We seek to source quality, unique pieces that stand the test of time, and we are proud to bring our collection of feature lighting to Australia.

We believe lighting extends beyond functionality; it can transform an environment, evoke emotion and enhance well-being. Decorative lighting has the power to complete a space, turning a house into a home or a project into a masterpiece. Sharing the joy of seeing our client projects come to life is our reason for being. We value our relationships with industry partners and colleagues and are proud to contribute to and collaborate on projects.

The Montauk Lighting Co. team are dedicated to inspiring and empowering clients to source the most beautiful and functional feature lighting to enhance and enliven their projects.
