The design agency Serge & Robert Cornelissen started its activity in 1993 with Serge who had recently graduated in architecture at the St. Lucas Institute in Ghent (Belgium). Thanks to the collaboration of his father Robert, defined as the grey eminence of the design office, Serge led the studio to be known worldwide in the field of architectural lighting product design. Unfortunately, this partnership ended in 2020 when the father Robert passed away. The list of collaborations carried out is long but the names of Martinelli Luce, for which the Bowl table lamp and the Bandero lamp were created, as well as Artemide, Axolight, Egoluce, Nemo, Vibia, are valid at an exemplary level.
