Getting Flos Decorative on your job
Flos Decorative is carried on the South Florida line card of Power & Lighting Systems. That is what decides who can sell it to you: lighting manufacturers appoint one representative per territory, and the rep for your job site is the one that matters — not the one nearest the manufacturer.
If Flos Decorative is on your schedule here, the agency that holds the line is who prices it. I will still give you a read on the fixture and the lead time.

About Flos
Flos was founded in 1962 and its Decorative division is based in Bovezzo, near Brescia in Italy. It is part of the Flos B&B Italia Group, a high-end design group jointly owned by Investindustrial and Carlyle, which also includes B&B Italia and Louis Poulsen. The company describes over sixty years of merging technology with emotion.
The catalog reads as a list of designers as much as products. Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni designed Arco, Taccia and Parentesi — Arco being the arched marble-based floor lamp that has been copied more often than almost any object in lighting. Afra and Tobia Scarpa, Philippe Starck and Konstantin Grcic are among the other designers Flos names. Taraxacum, Fantasma, Jucker, Miss Sissi, Mayday, String Light and Almendra fill out the range.
Flos splits into Decorative, Bespoke and Outdoor divisions with separate addresses, and the catalog covers table, floor, suspension, ceiling, wall and portable lamps, outdoor lighting, recessed lighting, projectors and spare parts. The spare parts point is worth stating plainly: these are fixtures people keep for decades, and a manufacturer that still supplies parts is the reason a fifty-year-old Arco is still lighting a room.

Why ask me about it
Thirteen years in lighting in this market, most of it on the distribution side and now on the rep side of the desk. I know which lines hold a spec, which ones slip on lead time, and what the substitution is going to be when value engineering starts.

Common questions about Flos Decorative
Who handles Flos Decorative in South Florida?
This line sells nationally through the manufacturer's own channel. Use the rep directory to find who covers your state — and if you want a read on the line before you specify it, ask. Send me the project or the model numbers and I will come back with pricing and lead times.
What do I quote from the Flos Decorative line?
Most often pendants, wall sconces, table and floor lamps and chandeliers. That is what I see on jobs, not the whole catalog. If you need something from Flos Decorative that is not listed there, send the model numbers and I will check it.
Can you supply Flos Decorative outside South Florida?
Yes. This line sells nationally through the manufacturer's own channel, not only in South Florida. Tell me where the job is, send me the project, and I will quote it.
How do I get pricing on Flos Decorative?
The quote form takes drawings, a fixture schedule or a plain list of catalog numbers. Expect a line-by-line price and current lead times, usually within one business day, at no cost.
What is Flos known for?
Italian design lighting since 1962 — Arco, Taccia, Parentesi and Taraxacum among the icons — alongside architectural, recessed and outdoor ranges. Flos works with named designers rather than an anonymous in-house catalog.
Who designed the Arco lamp?
Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni, who also designed Taccia and Parentesi for Flos. Arco is the arched floor lamp with the marble base, and it is among the most widely copied objects in lighting — worth knowing when a client presents a photograph of one.
Is Flos related to Louis Poulsen?
Yes. Both are part of the Flos B&B Italia Group, along with B&B Italia. The group is jointly owned by Investindustrial and Carlyle.
Does Flos supply spare parts for older fixtures?
Spare parts are a published category. These are fixtures that stay in a home or a hotel for decades, so parts availability is part of what the price buys — send the model name and I will check what is still supported.
