Design accessories, from Faro Architectural

In 1940, Carlos López, the founder of the FARO Group, entered the market by selling batteries from a small shop of about 10m² in Barcelona. Very quickly, he decided to team up with a friend—a specialist in assembling desk lamps—to market adjustable lamps.

Building on his success in the 1950s, Carlos López founded LOREFAR in 1951—a name formed by combining the first letters of his last name and that of his partner.

Later, in the 1980s, the family business began to face difficulties, prompting his son, Carlos López Orejudo, to take a risk and move to Hong Kong to expand the lighting range and revitalize the company. Thanks to this move, FARO grew stronger and became a leading name in lighting and ventilation in Spain.

In 1991, Faro Barcelona’s lighting fixtures arrived in France and were an instant success; the company’s lighting collections appealed to the French market. In 2015, the brand decided to reinvent itself and began promoting dynamism, freshness, approachability, creativity, and well-being through its designs.

Furthermore, Faro has established itself by developing lamps with sophisticated designs, impeccable quality, and very competitive prices. The company collaborates with numerous designers—including Studio Ribaudi, Jordi Lliopis, and Manel Llusca, to name a few—to create exclusive pieces. At Faro, you’ll find a very wide range of lighting fixtures for both indoor and outdoor use.

Since 2022, Faro has expanded its product line and segmented its collections to now offer an architectural range designed for professionals working on all types of projects. Discover their track spotlights, recessed spotlights, linear lighting systems, surface-mounted fixtures, LED profiles and strips, electrical equipment, and technical accessories.
