David Littman, the founder of Hudson Valley, recognized in his childhood how aesthetics can radically transform our everyday lives. Inspired by his mother, who was passionate about antiques, he often accompanied her in search of unique items, absorbing the importance of paying attention to detail.
However, David's connection to the world of lighting dates back to events that occurred long before his birth. In 1939, William Littman, David's grandfather and a talented inventor from Brooklyn, was deeply impressed by the introduction of fluorescent lighting at the New York World's Fair. By 1947, what had started as a small garage business had significantly expanded. David's education in lighting began in high school when he worked in the warehouse of his father's commercial lighting factory.
In the early 2000s, Hudson Valley acquired Corbett Lighting, known for its vibrant design concepts and luxurious handcrafted finishes. The company also incorporated Troy Lighting, which is famous for its eclectic handmade fixtures. Soon after, Mitzi joined Hudson Valley, artfully merging classic elements with modern design while maintaining high-quality standards.
These brands share several fundamental principles: a pursuit of perfection, a deep commitment to design, attentiveness to ever-changing trends, and a strong focus on quality. Hudson Valley actively expands its horizons and successfully experiments with each new collection by leveraging a wide range of engineering skills and capabilities.
For instance, the Moissanite chandelier, inspired by the Art Deco style, features three tiers of shimmering cascading alabaster panels. When illuminated, the translucent alabaster comes to life with a warm glow. The Allendale collection consists of wheel-shaped chandeliers that breathe new life into classic designs. Meanwhile, the Alula chandelier, inspired by sophisticated jewelry, showcases a weightless design. Three LED rings whimsically connect, seemingly rotating around a central sphere.
In conclusion, Hudson Valley is more than just a lighting brand. It represents a philosophy that unites tradition and innovation, quality and style. Regardless of your style or preferences, Hudson Valley lighting will be the highlight of your space.
