Idea to Innovation: From Good Concept to Great Product

When Hudson Valley Lighting Group invited designer Noz Nozawa to create a new product line, she drew inspiration from her dual passions: interior design and jewelry.

In a conversation with LUXE Interiors + Design Homes Editor Mary Jo Bowling, Nozawa shared how she transformed these influences into a collection of elegant light fixtures. They were joined by Hudson Valley Lighting Group's Sarah Speck, who offered insight into how designers can cultivate successful brand collaborations.

Champagne and light bites were served. Space was limited.
