The Urban Electric Co, is pleased to introduce its 10th Anniversary Collection of signature and exclusive lanterns. Since its founding in 2003, UECo has not only achieved a global presence but also become one of the most highly recognized lighting companies in the shelter industry.

At inception, the company’s product assortment primarily featured exterior lanterns. Now just a decade later, the company offers a wide collection of nearly 300 interior and exterior fixtures as well as one of the most extensive custom programs in the industry.

“Though we have grown in size, our passion is where it has always been. We love making heirloom quality lighting fixtures for architects and designers. For the 10th Anniversary, we were excited to celebrate our early roots through a dedicated lantern collection.” – Dave Dawson, President and Founder of The Urban Electric Co.

The Anniversary collection includes 10 exclusive lanterns in homage to the company’s heritage in lantern-making and the wonderful and rich tradition of a craft that dates back for centuries. In conjunction with UECo’s Creative Director Michael Amato, the company’s outside design collaborators were each invited to design a lantern that captured their unique take on the UECo aesthetic.

The 10th Anniversary Collection includes an assortment of ceiling and wall designs available exclusively through The Urban Electric Co (www.urbanelectricco.com).
