Arquium Diseno manufactures bespoke electrical lighting equipment in Porto Alegre. We merge engineering precision with the artisan soul to illuminate architecture.
Request CatalogueDISENO ATELIER LTDA, operating as Arquium Diseno, is a specialized manufacturing firm rooted in the industrial tradition of Rio Grande do Sul. Under the guidance of Marisol Gabin Cachafeiro Requia, we have evolved from a design studio into a full-scale production house for electrical lighting equipment.
"We do not simply design lamps; we engineer the apparatus of light itself."
Our facility in Porto Alegre combines advanced metalworking and electrical engineering with hand-finished craftsmanship. We cater to architects and developers who require lighting solutions that are not found in mass-market catalogs. From intricate chandeliers to robust exterior architectural lighting, we control the entire production chain to ensure quality and durability.
We believe that a light fixture is a machine for atmosphere. Our team works tirelessly to balance luminous efficacy with sculptural beauty, ensuring that every piece we manufacture meets rigorous safety standards while pushing aesthetic boundaries.
We design and fabricate custom lighting fixtures from scratch. Whether it is a singular statement piece for a hotel lobby or a series of pendants for a restaurant, our atelier handles metal fabrication, wiring, and finishing in-house to match your exact specifications.
Beyond the fixture, we engineer the light. We assist architects with photometer calculations and beam angle selection to ensure our manufactured equipment delivers the correct lux levels and color temperature (CCT) for the intended environment.
We breathe new life into vintage industrial fixtures or upgrade existing systems. We manufacture custom LED engines and drivers to modernize older equipment, improving energy efficiency while preserving the historical integrity of the original housing.
Unlike distributors, we are manufacturers. We control the raw materials—brass, aluminum, glass—and the electrical components. This eliminates middlemen and allows for rapid prototyping and modifications during the build process.
We proudly utilize locally sourced materials from Rio Grande do Sul whenever possible. Our designs often incorporate native woods and stones alongside industrial metals, creating a unique aesthetic signature rooted in our geography.
Safety is paramount in electrical manufacturing. All our fixtures are rigorously tested for thermal management and electrical safety, ensuring they meet the demanding standards of commercial and residential building codes.
Every project begins with CAD drawings and electrical schematics. We validate the feasibility of the design, selecting the appropriate drivers and heat sinks before any metal is cut.
Our artisans shape the housing using lathe work and welding, while our technicians install the LED modules and wiring. This happens simultaneously in our Porto Alegre facility.
Before leaving the atelier, every fixture undergoes a "burn-in" test to ensure reliability. We then crate and ship the units directly to the construction site for installation.
