Tulia is a lighting studio based in Nairobi.

Tulia is Swahili for “be still” or “take it easy.” Or, as we say in Kenya, “Relax manze.”
It is the feeling we design for.

Working with Technology & Craftsmanship

We work with 3D printing, woodworking, and ceramic craftsmanship to create our lighting.

Our 3D-printed elements are made using plant-based, renewable materials, bringing modern technology together with thoughtful craftsmanship and an African perspective.

Made in small numbers

We work in small batches on purpose, so every lamp is looked over by hand before it leaves the studio. When a design sells out, the next batch follows, and you can join the waitlist on any sold-out lamp.
