Matlight Milano: alchemy of light between stone and metal

Founded in 2014, Matlight Milano is rapidly establishing itself in the field of high-end decorative lighting design, expressing an entirely Italian savoir-faire that combines aesthetic research, experimentation and craftsmanship. Each collection of the brand stems from the vision of its founder, Matteo Terragni, who wanted to reinterpret the material in a contemporary key, transforming the primordial solidity of stone into an element capable of diffusing lightness and light. The result is a harmonious dialogue between natural materials and precious metals, where the transparency of alabaster, the strength of onyx, the purity of selenite and the materiality of travertine meet the shine of brass and bronze, generating collections with a unique and timeless character. Each piece, made entirely in Italy, is the result of a tailor-made process that combines technology and artistic sensibility, designed to enrich exclusive residential contexts as well as high-profile contract and hospitality projects. Among Matlight Milano’s most representative creations are the STICK, MINI ALABASTER MOON and TILE wall lights, together with the FUNGHETTO and FUNGOTTO table lamps, true designer objects where light meets matter in a perfect balance of form and function.

The STICK collection embodies the elegance of minimalism through pure lines and essential proportions: slender brass profiles enclose alabaster in a composition that enhances its natural veining, amplified by soft, enveloping LED light. Also available in the GRAND STICK version, it is the ideal choice for larger spaces, where lighting becomes an architectural and decorative element. MINI ALABASTER MOON, on the other hand, translates the poetic charm of the full moon into a luminous form. The alabaster sphere, suspended on a polished brass base, emits a warm, soft light that transforms any room into an intimate and rarefied space. Also available as a table lamp, it can be used individually or in multiple compositions, creating ever-changing plays of light. TILE stands out for its contemporary and refined language: a veined alabaster panel, framed in light bronze, from which the light emerges in a discreet and enveloping way thanks to two levels of warm-toned LEDs, which enhance the stone and highlight its natural texture. The effect is a soft, almost suspended glow, capable of creating an atmosphere of sophisticated tranquillity.

Alongside these wall creations, Matlight Milano has also designed two icons of domestic elegance, FUNGHETTO and FUNGOTTO, table lamps that reinterpret the classic shape of the lampshade through the nobility of alabaster. FUNGHETTO, the first in the series, is a small masterpiece of balance and proportion: its surfaces alternate alabaster and brass in a refined play of contrasts, available in two versions that swap the materials between the base and the lampshade. FUNGOTTO echoes this language, expanding its dimensions, designed for larger, more spectacular spaces, where light becomes the protagonist and defines the style of the environment. Both lamps celebrate the craftsmanship and formal purity that characterise the brand, transforming stone into a living material, capable of expressing beauty through its transparency. In each creation, Matlight Milano confirms its identity as a laboratory of contemporary design, where matter becomes light and light becomes a sensory experience, blending tradition and innovation in an authentically Italian language.
