Welcome to The Glow Zone, where light meets art. We are a small, family business based in Hampshire where the aim is to create and curate beautiful, unique and personalised lighting and decorative items for you and your home.
Our Story
It all started many moons ago when the first 3D printer arrived. We looked at it sat there, all shiny and new, with no idea what to do with it. Then, along came the UK PPE crisis and we joined a cooperative printing the headbands to hold masks on. The printer was running 24/7 printing these headbands for several months. The cooperative was run like a well oiled machine. Each geographic area had a representative who would come round every Friday to pick up your contribution. We printed hundreds and hundreds. The cooperative printed hundreds of thousands. Then the requirement ended and we were left shiny and a 3D printer that was no longer shiny and new.
Over the last 4 years, we’ve dabbled with all sorts. Mostly for ourselves but more recently on a commercial/retail basis. Nobody can have failed to notice the craze for articulated dragons and other creatures. We’ve printed and sold many of those but our focus has become more and more on lights. Some where we hold a licence to print and sell the designs of some very talented people. But more and more are our own designs.
And so The Glow Zone was born to transform spaces with light.
Our Mission
At The Glow Zone, our mission is to bring your lighting ideas to life and to, hopefully inspire you with our collections. We believe that lighting is not just about visibility but about creating moods, enhancing ambiance, and adding a touch of elegance to any space.
