Cincinnati, OH – March, 2011 Gateway Quarter lighting retailer, Switch Lighting & Design, joins the distinguished list of modern lighting showrooms as a premium dealer of Artemide Lighting. Often featured in leading design magazines like Dwell and Architectural Digest, Artemide lighting is known for its superior artistry, craftsmanship and commitment to modern lighting. Home of world renown lighting designers Michele De Lucchi and Giancarlo Fassina (Tolomeo Desk/Floor), Richard Sapper (Tizio Desk/Floor) and 2009 Red Dot Design Award winner for Pirce Suspension, Giuseppe Maurizio Scutella, Artemide continues charting new paths in the lighting industry.
What does this mean for our commercial and residential customers? Simply put, “You save more. gain access to Artemide’s exclusive product line and receive priority shipping and delivery on your purchases, ” states Switch’s owner, Bertie Ray III.
Since before opening its doors in downtown Cincinnati in 2008, Switch has been in negotiations to become an Artemide premium dealer. Only after a top-down restructuring of its global operations, including its management, dealer network, pricing and computer systems did Artemide hand-select Ray and Dearwester to join its new dealer network. “I’ve loved Artemide Lighting since I first sold it nearly 20 years ago. Now that we have it at Switch, we can truly offer our customers the finest in modern architectural lighting,” says Switch co-owner, Drew Dearwester.
Even before the ink was dry on the deal, Switch incorporated Artemide Lighting in the new corporates offices of 3CDC (14th & Race) and the new Park + Vine (13th & Main).
