Blueprint home and hospitality design house has partnered with artisan Vladimir Krasnogorov on an eight-piece debut lighting collection inspired by botanical forms. The Krasnogorov Studio x Blueprint collaboration is a material study where hand-finished wood lends warmth, grain and texture alongside Blueprint’s polished accents and glowing globes of blown glass and alabaster.
The partnership pairs Krasnogorov Studio’s bespoke approach with Blueprint’s in-house production in Norwood, N.J., bringing Krasnogorov’s artistry to a wider audience of design lovers. For Blueprint, the collection rounds out its product offerings with a softer, more sculptural point of view.
Krasnogorov is best known for his made-to-order Pearl Chandelier, which rose to prominence after designer Brigitte Romanek sourced its first iteration for Gwyneth Paltrow’s California home. For decades prior, he refined a distinctive process, pairing labor-intensive hand carving with custom technology that brings intricate detail to sculptural wood furniture and fixtures.
Across the debut collection, hand-finished wood in cerused, tobacco and ebonized tones meets brass, bronze, enamel, pewter and nickel finish options. The interplay of natural and refined texture alongside sculpted and architectural lines lends each fixture rich, layered depth.
The eight designs mark the first chapter of an ongoing creative partnership between Blueprint and Krasnogorov Studio, with new concepts already in the works.
