About

The word Tala originates from an African concept of Conservation Through Beauty. The company was founded by four friends at the University of Edinburgh with a shared passion for design, technology and sustainability. Our distinctive design rubric combines classic decorative qualities, British industrial influences and pioneering LED technology. What makes a Tala bulb unique is its uncompromising focus on both design and sustainability. With exciting developments in optics, materials science and connectivity, we are now able to design lighting with a strong shift from the functional towards the emotional - the idea of ‘lighting as an experience’ forms the backbone of the Tala collection. ​When you purchase a Tala product you’re investing in our ethos - this is represented in every detail, from the packaging down to our tree planting programme. For every 200 units sold, we plant 10 trees. Tala designs are built for creating a contemporary and inviting atmosphere. There are three distinct collections - Design, Feature and Classic. Our product development is focused on pushing the design limits of the lightbulb and utilising new materials and techniques. ​ With an emphasis on warm light, high colour rendering and quality components, Tala products complement a variety of interior design styles and projects.
