Darwich Studio
The signature atelier. Sculptures of light.
Light, crystal and engineering
In 2021, demand for made-to-measure pieces called for a home of its own, and the atelier that carries its founder’s surname was born, because every piece leaves with his signature: parametric development, executive design with hole positions set by coordinate, in-house manufacturing and leaf-by-leaf assembly.
The Studio made the iconic chandelier of the dome of the Santo Amaro Mosque, the piece that opened the era of monumental sculptures. Today there are hundreds of chandeliers and works of art in developments in Brazil, Latin America, the United States and Europe, for developers such as Cyrela and Living.
Each project is a unique piece: we do not work with generic catalogues. We work with your idea, your space and your vision, and turn it into a lighting work with identity, exclusivity and memorable visual impact.
“We do not light up rooms. We create the moment someone walks in, looks up and understands, without words, that luxury lives here.”Mohammed Darwich
Art
Each chandelier is conceived as a luminous sculpture with its own visual identity.
Crystal
Selection, import and quality control of crystals with superior optical purity.
Engineering
Load calculation, structural fixing, safety factors, stainless steel and special alloys.
Design
Technical drawings, 3D modeling, prototyping and proportions for each space.
Lighting
High-efficiency LEDs, drivers, dimming and programmable lighting scenes.
From factory to final result
We control every stage. This end-to-end mastery, rare in the market, is what turns matter into art.
Project and engineering
Signature study and precise structural calculation: size, load, safety and integration with the architecture.
Design and 3D
The chandelier modeled in 3D, to see before it exists how the light will behave in the space.
Art and curation
Far beyond crystal: each piece is a selected and curated work of art.
Handcrafted production
Piece by piece, assembled by hand. A single chandelier can gather tens of thousands of individually placed crystals.
LED lighting
Light sizing, color temperature and programmable scenes to enhance every facet.
Technical installation
A specialist team installs the piece so it appears suspended in the air, with no visible cables.
Masterpiece: the “Allah” chandelier
A 500 kg piece, with about 150,000 crystals and 200 points of light, shaped as the word Allah. Eight months of creation, donated to a mosque as a symbol between Brazil and Egypt.
On site
Mohammed follows each installation in person: it is not unusual to find him on the scaffold, beside the technical team, following the assembly crystal by crystal until the final calibration of the light.
Featured works
Also: Heathrow Airport (London), Legacy Powered by Porsche Consulting (Porto Alegre), Cyrela Oscar Freire 1560. Works in Santiago de Chile, Medellín, Buenos Aires, Punta del Este, Santa Cruz de la Sierra, New York and London.
Crystals: cuts and colors
For Darwich Studio, crystal is not an ornament: it is an optical component designed from the first sketch. The cut defines how light enters, breaks down and escapes; the tone changes its character.
