Lescher
Welcome to the colorful world of Lescher. At the core of our designs, discover modular lighting system with sculptural lamps that connect effortlessly.
Inspired by 1960s–70s European design and the golden age of disco, we blend bold aesthetics with smart engineering to create lighting that’s all about mood, identity, and the art of living well.
Lescher is a design studio devoted to light as an object of character, culture, and emotion. Rooted in a deep respect for mid-century optimism and space-age experimentation, we create modular lighting systems that blur the line between functional illumination and collectible design.
Our lamps are conceived not only as luminaires, but as sculptural, everyday objects, as pieces that belong to a space by day and come alive through light at night. Designed to be rearranged, combined, and lived with, each element is part of a larger visual system that evolves over time.
Founded by a lighting designer and an optical engineer, Lescher balances creative direction with technical precision. We focus on durable materials, carefully engineered components, and light that feels intentional rather than purely decorative. The result is lighting that’s playful but considered; designed to last, adapt, and bring character to everyday interiors.
PLOPY COLLECTION
Plopy is a sculptural light drawn from the abstracted forms of the human body. Reduced to essential curves, it holds a quiet presence when unlit and reveals warmth and shadow when illuminated.
Through modular composition, its meaning emerges in pairing and repetition. Light is not an addition to Plopy, but the material that completes it. Light is the material that completes the form.
Two Colors
Ivory Plopy
Red Plopy
INTERCHANGEABLE
All of our lamps have the same dimensions. This allows you to easily change the acrylic shade and swap it for a new model or another color.
MAGNETIC
The acrylic shades are magnetic and can easily be placed and replaced at the user's convenience. This allows a simple and efficient installation with minimum effort.
DIMMABLE
The lamps are dimmable. They don't heat up and are safe to use on house power thanks to a low voltage LED source with a warm color temperature.
COLLECTIBLE
Models will come into in different colors and styles, allowing some unique collaborations with various artists for limited editions.
INTERACTIVE
In a near future, an app will allow you to connect your wall to your music, creating some unique variations that will change your house parties forever.
INTERCONNECTED
Every lamp has 4 different female outlets. By using the provided cables, the user is able to connect a large amount of lamps together.

Tom J. Leduc
Tom J. Leduc is a French lighting designer and lighting director whose work bridges cinematography, photography, and design. Raised in the sun-drenched town of Uzès in Provence, Tom developed an early sensitivity to the emotional power of light.
After studying cinematography in Paris, he moved to Los Angeles in 2017 to pursue a career in film and photography lighting. Over the years, his deepening understanding of how light shapes mood, space, and storytelling sparked a desire to design his own sculptural lighting objects. In 2024, following a creative partnership with Martin, he co-founded Lescher to bring that vision to life.

Martin Millischer
Martin is a French color scientist and optical engineer with a background in designing high-end camera sensors. After graduating from Arts et Métiers in Paris, he moved to San Francisco to work on autonomous vehicle technology at Uber, where he focused on the intersection of imaging and machine learning.
A lifelong builder and problem solver, Martin had always been drawn to creative, hands-on projects. The night he met Tom, he took a bold leap—committing to turn a shared vision into reality. That vision became Lescher.

Light Affair
Humans.
Lescher began, as many design stories do, with an encounter. In 2023, Hollywood lighting director Tom J. Leduc and San-Francisco-based optical engineer Martin Millischer—two French expatriates living on opposite sides of California—met through mutual friends and discovered a shared fascination with light and its fascinating power of attraction. In the wake of industry upheaval and personal reinvention, the pair set out to explore lighting not only as function, but as sculptural expression.
Their collaboration took shape through early experiments with acrylic—testing its sensual curves, playful volumes, and luminous depth. Within weeks, the first Plopy prototypes were thermoformed in Martin’s kitchen oven, capturing the humor, warmth, and quiet subversion that would define the brand. The studio name, Lescher, merges their surnames in recognition of a true creative partnership. Soon after, engineer Jordi Pakey-Rodriguez joined the project, developing the electrical architecture behind Lescher’s modular lighting system and refining the technology at the core of the brand.
Today, Lescher is on a mission to explore the boundary between object and light, crafting pieces that feel as timeless as they are quietly subversive.
