ALL of the Graypants creations featured in our Northern Lights exhibit will be up for sale at unbelievably low prices ranging from 40-70% off list. Plus, we’re selling several Lambert & Fils fixtures from a previous pop-up and authentic, never opened/never used Verpan stools.

 – Friday, March 10th from 12:30pm – 5:30pm

– Saturday, March 11th from 10am – 3pm

A Peek at What’s on Sale

Pieces from the Northern Lights Pop-Up

We’re putting everything from the Graypants pop-up up for sale during our two-day in-studio Sample Sale. Follow us on instagram for glimpses of Northern Lights and the Graypants fixtures featured in the exhibit (here’s a few highlights). Everything you see in the reels below will be on sale.

As a bonus, the Northern Lights exhibit is still installed–this sale is your very last chance to experience it all of its epic glory. And, though we aren’t selling the No. 8 Lighting recessed fixtures currently on display at the studio, you’ll have the chance to see No. 8’s latest releases and biggest hits installed at our studio if you visit during the sale. After the sale, we’re taking them down to make room for our next show.

Lambert & Fils, too!

Some of the most coveted fixtures displayed during our 2021-2022 Lambert & pop-up show are still available for sale at extraordinarily prices as low as 50% off list. Like the Graypants fixtures currently installed at our studio, the Lambert & Fils pieces in our inventory were all installed once previously but are in excellent condition. Our L&F fixtures are currently packed in their original shipping boxes, but we’ll have the boxes out and open to view during the sample sale.

All three of the Sainte pendants pictured in the instagram post below are available for purchase during our Studio Sample Sale.

Watch this reel for a glimpse of the other Lambert & Fils fixtures that were featured in our 2021 – 2022 pop-up. Other highlights from the Lambert & Fils show available for purchase during the sample sale include the polished aluminum Mile Atelier and the brass Laurent 09 pendant shown in the reel.

& Authentic Verpan

We also have BRAND NEW/still boxed Verpan stools available for purchase at the Archetype studio during our two-day sale. This is a rare opportunity to pick up as many as 11 authentic Verpan Series 430 bar stools (the bar stool version of the famed Verner Panton-designed Series 430 chair) with luxe upholstery specs that you won’t find readily available through standard retailers. Specs: #192 Harald 3 black velvet Kvadrat/Raf Simons upholstery, black frame. Bar height. Attend the Sample Sale for additional specs and our unbeatable pricing.

Note: The stools available for purchase during the Sample Sale are new in their boxes. The stools shown in the photos are identical, but out of their boxes because we kept a number of them for use in our studio. The 11 stools that we’re selling remain unopened.

Who should attend the Sample Sale?

If you love modern lighting and furniture, you should definitely join us for this sale. The deals are unbeatable.

End users, home owners and project owners are welcome. While much of our inventory is absolute perfection in a modern home setting, this sale may be particularly valuable for someone who owns or is responsible for decorating or staging commercial real estate. Graypants and Lambert & Fils are especially well-suited for commercial applications, and Verpan’s 430 is extremely popular in luxury office or hospitality settings. If you’re looking for focal pieces for a high-end office environment, a restaurant or lounge, retail space, hospitality environment or hotel, or a bar, you can’t miss this sale.

If you’re an architect, interior designer, lighting design or other trade professional who missed your chance to tour the Northern Lights pop-up or our No. 8 exhibit, attending the sample sale is an absolute must! After the sale, these two exhibits are coming down to make way for our next big show. The fixtures on display still represent the newest and greatest that Graypants and No. 8 have to offer, and you absolutely should come see them before we take them down. Just be sure to RSVP to the sale date you plan to attend–this way our sales representatives will know we’re expecting you, and will be sure to give you a full studio tour, complete with a demo of No. 8’s tunable white.

Just how low are your Sample Sale prices?

Our prices are so low, we can’t even advertise them online. This is a one-time studio showroom close-out sale for those who come to the studio to see us in person. Final prices will be posted. The % off list varies from fixture to fixture, but we can confidently say that you will not find lower prices for these fixtures anywhere else.

Additional information about our pricing and the sale can be found in the Eventbrite that we’re using to collect RSVP’s to the sale.

The Venue: Our Studio

Our studio’s 1,800 square feet of open gallery space was designed to be the perfect canvas for pop-up viewing opportunities. Clouds mounted to high ceilings in our lobby area are spaced to allow an uncluttered, 360° view of suspended luminaires, showing off both the fixture and the affixing hardware. Our corridor area is lined on one side with spaces that allow specifiers to view pendants and wall-mounted luminaires up close; the opposite side is designed to showcase recessed fixtures at a range close enough to appreciate the hardware, but roomy enough to allow meaningful observation of light.

Our studio decked out for the recent pop-up exhibit that featured Lambert & Fils.

We’re conveniently located in the Vermont Center in San Francisco’s Design District. Parking is easy, abundant and free to visitors, and our studio is near major freeway exits.

Though we’re normally “to the trade” and open for studio tours on an appointment basis, from time-to-time, we invite the greater community of design-loving locals to join us for special events like this two-day sale. Don’t miss this opportunity to experience the magic! All who are interested in experiencing the magic or who want to shop incomparable deals on Graypants, Verpan and Lambert & Fils are welcome and invited, but please be sure to use our Eventbrite to let us know which date you’ll be joining us to shop.

Wait, why are you taking down the Graypants & No. 8 exhibits?

We’re clearing our gallery for a brand new exhibit that will launch on March 30th. This one features Boyd Lighting & ONE A. You can learn more about the launch party and how to RSVP here.

Northern Lights: A Graypants Experience

Discover extraordinary, sustainable luminaires from the Northern Pacific Coast. Our pop-up exhibit features the latest and greatest innovations from the creative minds at Graypants. Updated 10/13/22.

New Pop-Up Installation On Display in San Francisco

Our brand new pop-up installation celebrates all things new, innovative and extraordinary from the sustainability-focused team of designers and creators at Graypants in Seattle. The exhibit features customizable systems that will have your imagination running wild and showcases the brand’s latest releases.

On October 12th, the Graypants team joined us for an evening soirée at the Archetype studio to celebrate the launch of the show. It was an incredible time! Thank you to everyone who attended the premiere! We’re immensely grateful to the Graypants team for their hard work on the installation, and for sharing their story with our amazing guests.

For a limited time, Archetype will host Northern California trade professionals for private tours of the installation on an appointment basis. You can use this link to schedule one. Tour times are limited, and the installation is temporary. Book early to make sure you don’t miss the show!

Read on for more information about the extraordinary Graypants fixtures featured in the exhibit, and contact Archetype to bring Graypants luminaires to spaces in Northern California.

New Releases

Our installation features new fixtures and finish options that expand on series you may already know, but it also features luminaires from two entirely new Graypants series. Booi and Barro are so fresh that we can pretty much guarantee you haven’t seen them in real life before, yet they’re already making huge waves in the design world.

Barro, a fully handmade pendant lamp designed by Caterina Morretti for Graypants was recently shortlisted for a 2022 Dezeen Award.

With its blend of clay and hand-blown glass, Barro evokes the warm embrace of earth and light.

It’s handcrafted by artisans in San Bartolo Coyotepec, a Oaxacan community renowned for pottery created using traditional materials and centuries-old techniques.

And the brand new nautical-inspired Booi pendant is up for a 2022 L A M P award! You can vote for it (up to three times!) here.

New Graypants Releases On Display @ Archetype beginning 10/12

Customizable Systems

Our show also features highly customizable systems perfectly suited for corporate campuses, hotel lobbies, grand banquet halls, restaurants, modern airports and other places where impact is key, and nothing short of original will do.

The systems below will all make an appearance in our studio, along with another major surprise (not shown here) that’s so custom, and so unique you really can’t see anything like it anywhere else outside of our pop-up. Want to know what it is? Schedule a tour!

It won a 2022 Best of the Best Red Dot Design Award, Red Dot’s highest product design award.

Discover Jokerlight at Light! Design Expo

The Jokerlight team understands light as a fundamental element in life, and they create technical lighting for architecture that reflects this belief. A consistent minimalist aesthetic is present throughout the line’s array of recessed fixtures, surface-mounted luminaires, and low-voltage track systems.

Jokerlight will be highlighting some of its most internationally beloved offerings at Light! Design Expo. Their 2017 iF Design Award-winning Shot Light and 2019 iF Design Award-winning Black Foster fixtures are glare-free and precise, making it near impossible to see the source of the beautiful light that the fixtures emit. They call this the ‘The Invisible Black’ effect. It must be seen to be believed, and Jokerlight will be demonstrating it at the expo.

Their low-voltage track systems are so cleverly designed and streamlined that they invite a host of sophisticated, elegant, and creative applications. The 48V system is endlessly versatile and so much fun to install. The new Minimal Track in 24V is so tiny and sleek. Its miniaturized track and components give the look of an ultrafine, minimalist line floating in space. It’s no wonder that it won a 2020 Red Dot Design Award.

Love what you see from this brand? Whether you’re planning to be at the expo or not, we’re your contact for Jokerlight inquiries in Northern California or Hawaii. Reach out for more information or to find out how to bring these and other extraordinary Jokerlight fixtures to your commercial, retail, hospitality and office design projects.

Archetype will be at Pier 27 with Jokerlight plus a diverse array of additional innovators in the word of light from 11:30am until 8pm on Thursday, 7/21. The magic starts when you check in with Archetype at booth 131. Learn more here.

See the Latest from Kreon at Light! Design Expo

Belgian architectural lighting brand Kreon will be showing off three innovative new releases at Light! Design Expo.

Inti

The award-winning Inti downlight allows the designer to create different atmospheres within the same environment. It features diffused illumination and directional lighting in the same fixture, and the results are spectacular. We’re particularly excited about Inti’s applications in the hospitality sphere—these fixtures can be used to simultaneously illuminate a hallway and the numbers on each hotel room door, beautifully and without unnecessary noise. Experiencing it in real life will be sure to get the creative juices going!


More About Inti.

Stripe

Stripe’s visually interesting form factor is oozing with modern style. It’s a competitively priced fixture that you’re sure to love for hospitality, commercial and office environments. We’re particularly fond of the wall wash version.

More About Stripe.

Aplis 60

Aplis 60, the latest addition to Kreon’s Aplis family of fully recessed, directional spotlights, is a new range of round downlights with an aperture of 60mm. Aplis 60 fixed downlights and wall-wash luminaires feature a high-performance, faceted reflector for efficiency and uniformity.

Aplis 60 Specifications.
