Pholc is a designer lighting brand founded in Sweden in 2015 by Maja and Samuel Norburg. Clearly claiming its Nordic DNA, Pholc was able to quickly get noticed by winning the Elle Decoration 2017 Swedish design prize thanks to the Mobil pendant light, which is very successful.
Pholc has since continued its path by developing sophisticated, simple and elegant lighting fixtures.
The Pholc collection embodies a modern vision of Scandinavian design, combining sophisticated simplicity, clean lines and a touch of boldness. Founded in 2015 by Maja and Samuel Norburg in Sweden, this lighting brand stands out for its expressive aesthetic and collaborations with talented designers, creating pieces that illuminate interiors with style and personality.
Proudly embracing its Swedish heritage, Pholc quickly conquered the design world by winning the 2017 Elle Decoration Swedish Design Award for its Mobil pendant lamp, designed by Monika Mulder. Based on a philosophy of ‘expressive simplicity’, the brand explores forms that are both familiar and innovative, collaborating with designers such as Broberg & Ridderstråle, Aurélien Barbry and Monika Mulder. Each light fixture, manufactured in Sweden, reflects a balance between Nordic minimalism and a sculptural presence, designed to arouse curiosity and enhance spaces.
The Pholc range offers a selection of lighting fixtures, from pendant lights to table lamps, designed to combine functionality with bold aesthetics. Here are the main categories:Â Â
Pendant lights: The Mobil (70 or 100 cm, Monika Mulder) is inspired by New York balustrades and the street lamps on the Brooklyn Bridge, with its opal glass shades and brushed brass, nickel or matt black structures, offering soft, mobile light. The Kandinsky (Ø30 or Ø45 cm), evoking the abstract paintings of the Bauhaus, combines a smoked glass sphere (grey or brown) with a metal stem for poetic elegance. The Turner 65 (Broberg & RidderstrÃ¥le) plays on a sphere cut into orbits, diffusing omnidirectional light without glare. Â
Table lamps: The Mobil Table lamp (Ø10 x H18 cm, Monika Mulder) echoes the iconic design of the pendant lamp in a compact version, with an opal glass shade and a brass or black structure, perfect for a desk or bedside table. Â
Wall and ceiling lights: The Edge (Ø20 x H14 cm), inspired by the play of light and shadow, uses an aluminium structure to create coloured parallel lines, ideal for corridors or living rooms.
Pholc favours high-quality materials such as opal glass, aluminium, brushed brass and lacquered metal, often combined with textile cords (white or black, 2-3 m). The lights incorporate LED light sources (G9 or 5W, 2700K, dimmable), ensuring warm, energy-efficient lighting. Manufactured in Sweden, Pholc products meet strict sustainability and quality standards, with particular attention paid to finish and durability, resulting in pieces that stand the test of time.
Pholc lighting fixtures fit into a variety of spaces, from Scandinavian minimalism to contemporary or eclectic interiors. The Mobil or Turner pendant lights create elegant focal points above a dining table or in a living room, while the Kandinsky adds a poetic touch to a bedroom or reading corner. Table and wall lamps, such as Mobil Table or Edge, add a graphic and functional touch. Their soft light and sculptural designs embody Danish hygge while offering a bold modernity that can be adapted to any style.
