Soho Lighting inspired by...
HISTORICAL ERA'S
Soho Lighting was born from a simple frustration: the absence of switches and sockets that truly respected the character of period homes. Rooted in a deep appreciation for architectural history and interior design, our work is guided by the belief that the past offers the clearest direction for the present. When restoring a home, understanding its origins allows every detail to sit in quiet harmony with its surroundings.
Our lighting, switches and sockets are designed with this in mind - informed by historical forms and crafted for contemporary living.
Georgian
(1714–1837)
- Lighting was soft and atmospheric, created through candles and early oil lamps held in elegant metal sconces and chandeliers. This was a world of craftsmanship and candlelit ambience, long before electricity reshaped the evening mood.

Victorian
(1837–1901)
- The arrival of gas lighting transformed homes and streets. Victorian ceilings often featured ornate gas chandeliers, while walls carried gas sconces with visible pipework and mantles that glowed with a warm, flickering light.

Art Deco
(1910s–1930s)
- Lighting stepped boldly into modernity with geometric shapes, symmetry, chrome, glass and streamlined glamour. Fixtures became sculptural statements - sleek, luxurious, and unmistakably modern.
