The founder of HK Lighting, Mr. Hiroshi Kira, grew up in Japan and learned the concept of clean, simple design from his early schooling. After arriving to the United States and completing his education, he joined “father of industrial design” Henry Dreyfuss, where he continued to master the art of integrating design with functionality. His desire to create his own company – a company built on the essence of design and quality manufacturing– became reality when HK Lighting was founded in 2005.
