Their first order arrived from the prestigious Liberty of London after participating at Tom Dixon’s, The Dock, as part of London Design Festival 2009, where they showed a prototype for what is now seen as the signature Plant & Moss product the Original Clamp Lamp. It has an industrial aesthetic, similar to lighting made for a workbench with it’s namesake component available in bespoke colours.
Over time, James Moss became less involved in the day to day running of the studio, and Plant continued to steer the company and a year was spent bringing the first collection together while simultaneously moving into the studio in Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter in January 2011. The Plant & Moss debut collection was exhibited at the Tramshed, London in 2011.
Plant and his team of freelance designers and makers now work on both the Plant & Moss Collection along side bespoke commissions from manufacturers, retailers, interior designers and private clients. All pieces from the main product line can come in custom sizes, finishes and they welcome requests for adjustments to the collections for a particular project, in addition to completely bespoke work.
