Founded in 2012, Moth Light is a family-owned team of architectural lighting professionals with over 35 years of experience. We specialise in delivering expert lighting solutions through architectural lighting design, product supply and project coordination.
With showrooms in Auckland, Wellington, and Napier, our lighting services span urban, commercial, residential and landscape sectors. We are passionate about creating innovative lighting solutions that enrich the lives of those who experience our work. For us, efficiency goes beyond energy—we believe that clever design and intelligent products hold the key to using less.
We proudly use high-quality lighting products from our official brands BEGA, LED Luks and Aubrilam, and LED linear lighting systems from Offspring Profiles, including the Richie Rail illuminated handrail systems. Our products are built to last, blending enduring quality with timeless aesthetics.
In 2023, Moth Light joined forces with Rowe Light, a successful architectural lighting company, in a strategic merger. This partnership strengthened our capabilities and expanded our reach, reflecting a shared commitment to delivering exceptional value and innovation. Moth Light continues to lead the way in architectural lighting, offering unparalleled expertise and products that transform spaces.
It all started in 2006 when Robin, after graduating with a design degree majoring in Industrial Design, joined one of NZ’s leading architectural lighting companies. He started Moth Light in 2012.
Along with the project management and technical skills gained during this early period of Robin’s career, a passion for lighting and product design was born.
Although Robin retains a small client base at Moth Light, most of his focus is now on the day-to-day management of both Moth Light and his other business, Offspring Profiles, and continued product and business development.
Robin tries to maintain some life balance with his 2 young children and a passion for mountain biking.
