From their founding in Melbourne in 1968, Rakumba has become Australia’s longest-established international decorative lighting house. Rooted in the philosophy of “Making Beauty”, their workshop brings together artisans, engineers, and designers to craft striking feature lighting that blends artisanal heritage with contemporary ingenuity.
Rakumba’s collaborations—including collections like Typography, Parallels, and the playful Hangman by Adam Goodrum—showcase a dedication to form, material and narrative.
Their latest innovation, Big Glow—designed in partnership with Studio Truly Truly—combines Australian wool and compostable bioplastic to produce a soft, acoustic fixture that glows like the sun, is locally made in Victoria, and fully supports traceable, sustainable production. Rakumba’s portfolio spans timeless pendant sculptures to elegant wall lights, table and floor lamps—and with global reach, their pieces illuminate spaces that demand expressive craftsmanship and quiet technical complexity.
