Collection: Astep

Astep is more than just a lighting brand—it's a harmonious blend of tradition and innovation, artistry and technology. Founded by Alessandro Sarfatti in 2014, Astep stands as a tribute to his family’s long-standing legacy in Italian lighting design, while simultaneously pushing boundaries to create forward-thinking, sustainable lighting solutions for contemporary living. With roots tracing back to his grandfather Gino Sarfatti—an iconic lighting designer and founder of Arteluce—Alessandro brings generational expertise into the modern era through Astep’s meticulous craftsmanship and commitment to meaningful design.

What sets Astep apart is its unique philosophy: to take “a step” forward by balancing respect for the past with curiosity for the future. The brand resurrects historical masterpieces from the 20th century through its "Stilnovo" collection, while also collaborating with contemporary designers to develop cutting-edge products that integrate smart technology and environmental consciousness. Each Astep light fixture is a sculptural statement—timeless in form yet deeply connected to the needs and spirit of today's world.

In a marketplace crowded with mass-produced lighting, Astep carves its own path by focusing on quality over quantity, storytelling over trends, and emotion over function. Whether you're admiring the poetic glow of the Model 2065 or the modular brilliance of Candela, every piece reflects Astep’s devotion to creating light that feels human—both in purpose and presence.
