Illuminating the Heart of Ojai’s Natural Landscape

The sun-soaked, arid landscape of Ojai Valley is home to a diverse range of cacti species.

His lamps reflect the unique forms of these native cacti, blending nature’s artistry with functional lighting to celebrate the rugged beauty of Southern California.
