NEZO Lighting - Our origin
It all started in 1995. NEOZ founder and industrial designer Peter Ellis, was approached to work on the lighting design for Penfold Wine’s Magill Estate restaurant in the Adelaide hills with Sydney architects Allen Jack+Cottier.
He was tasked with designing an electric lamp with no cord to allow tables to be moved around the room. As there were no off-the-shelf battery systems, he designed his own precisely to his requirements. The result was the Magill cordless table lamp, and the first cordless lamp was born.
NEOZ has a rich history of innovation in lighting design. In the 1990s, our Lightrail and Lightwire track systems revolutionised the industry, and since then we’ve earned numerous prestigious design awards and created influential designs that have made a mark on the history of hospitality lighting.
