Beginning

Designer, craftsman and lighting editor, Ozone was born in 2000, in Paris, from the vision and imagination of Etienne Gounot and Eric Jähnke. When they met, sitting at neighboring desks in an office where they both worked as engineers, something clicked. They gave up their established careers to give free rein to their creativity. Deeply touched by nature and architecture, Eric and Etienne have made light the spark, the substance of their project.

The main sources of inspiration are the sun and the sky with their thousand nuances, from cold light to warm light, from sharp shadows to soft diffusions, from the uniformity of color to the most subtle gradations. They are also memories of special moments, when we are suddenly enveloped in a magical light, united with the world and our soul.

Driven by these convictions, Ozone pays particular attention to lighting technologies and lighting results in its product development.  The aim of Ozone lightings is to faithfully reveal the interior design work, create pleasant and warm atmospheres, and also magnify works of art.

Historically, the reference light for humans has come from the sun, the flame of a candle, or the light of embers. Today, Ozone seeks to place the use of Dim to Warm technology at the forefront of high-end lighting.

The light follows the sun’s natural curve, evolving from a colder atmosphere during the day (2500K) to a very warm atmosphere in the evening (1900K).

With a Color Rendering Index (CRI) greater than 95, the LEDs used by Ozone guarantee a faithful color reproduction, bringing users closer to natural light in their everyday lives. In addition, the use of high-performance, refined diffusing materials and the integration of anti-glare devices provide total comfort for a memorable lighting experience.
