About us

Since 1997, Astro’s founders have shared a passion for British lighting and a vision to create products with distinctive quality. Captured in designs that transcend seasons and trends, more than two decades of knowledge influence their range of bathroom, interior and exterior luminaires. Each design begins as a simple drawing within their sketchbooks; these ideas are then realised using quality componentry, materials, and tooling, as timeless luminaires for hospitality and luxury residential projects. Astro know that every design should be built to last. They do not compromise and will always choose the best possible processes to realise their final product. Future-proofed, with a pared-down aesthetic, they aim to deliver a simplicity of form that ensures enduring quality. It is this quality that now sees Astro lighting distributed in over 90 countries, with their designs featured as a part of inspirational schemes around the world. Co-founder and design director, James Bassant, continues to lead their in-house design and engineering team at their headquarters in West Essex, United Kingdom. The team maintain the brand’s pursuit of excellence, which several global awarding bodies acknowledge. Astro is a proud recipient of prestigious industry accolades such as the RedDot award, the Archiproduct Design award, and the Queen's Award for International Trade. Astro's extensive catalogue of quality lighting will enable you to build a cohesive lighting scheme in any setting - which you can trust to perform for years to come.

  • Great lighting is more than a finishing touch – it’s the foundation of a workspace that inspires focus, creativity, and collaboration. From meeting rooms to communal areas, desks to breakout zones, the correct lighting can transform how we feel and perform at work. We design workplace lighting solutions that balance sleek aesthetics with practical functionality, offering low-glare, energy-efficient luminaires tailored to modern work environments. From precise task lighting to reduce eye strain or ambient lighting that creates an inviting atmosphere, our designs enhance productivity and comfort. In today’s evolving workplaces – where hybrid working has redefined the role of office spaces – good lighting does more than illuminate. It supports well-being, reduces fatigue, and promotes focus, making it an essential part of creating an environment where people want to spend time. From adjustable desk lights to versatile ceiling fixtures, every detail matters when optimising spaces for work and collaboration.
