Classique

Etienne Gounot and Eric Jähnke have a particular bond with these two majestic chandeliers that originated in Ozone’s first prestigious project in 2005: the salons of the Taillevent restaurant in Paris. Each made up of three thirds of metal rings, one generously illuminates the ceilings, the other bathes the space in a warm, shadowless light. The branch-shaped suspension evokes the trees of the black forest dear to Eric. Machined from solid like most Ozone products, the Classics have a captivating level of finish.

Gounot & Jähnke

First and foremost, Ozone is the story of a friendship. Etienne Gounot and Eric Jähnke were just 25 when they met, and few years later they founded Ozone in 2000. Combining magic, architecture and technology, light was their inspiration. Since then, the two founders have specialized in lighting design, composing a bold geometry that is sometimes classic, modernist or minimal. To reach the highest quality they aimed at, the two designers established their own workshop in Paris, developing a specific savoir-faire. Ten years ago they opened their workshop to several collaborations with renowned architects and designers, in order to create an exceptional lighting collection.
