Palefire works to blur some of the historically distinct lines between domestic design and ‘fine art’, bringing an artistic sensibility to design for the home. 

We make homeware which challenges, and offers an antidote to, the minimalist aesthetic still dominating the market. Our flamboyant approach, drawing on the spirit and romance of historical art and design moments like Art Nouveau, the Omega Workshops, Abstract Expressionism, and mid-century Murano glass-making, is always underpinned by a commitment to responsible design practices.

U/V, our debut collection, comprises eight decorative light designs based on a modular system using five moulded, recycled paper-pulp shapes. Each structure – lightweight, robust, and uniquely textured – is manufactured in small batches at a family-run workshop in Barcelona, then assembled and hand-painted at our studio in vibrant patterns and bold block-colour combinations using non-toxic, natural paint and varnishes. Each design is paired and painted to order, reducing stock waste. Bespoke finishes are available upon request.
