Occhio, a German company renowned for its innovative approach to lighting design, has unveiled dark chrome, a striking new surface finish that brings depth, shine and expressive elegance to contemporary interiors. Described as "deep, glossy, expressive", dark chrome adds a luxurious character to any space, offering architects, interior designers and design enthusiasts "a new spectrum of creative possibilities: subtly as an accent or powerfully as a statement".

Developed through a complex PVD process, dark chrome combines exceptional durability with refined aesthetics and an elegant material depth. The high-gloss finish reflects light in a unique manner, giving luminaires an almost mystical aura, making them ideal for interiors that seek character and sophistication. According to Occhio, the surface offers "endless depth, timeless durability" and complements both modern and classical designs.
Expanding the brand's collection, dark chrome creates "a new facet of style" by enhancing each luminaire with a sculptural quality while reinforcing Occhio's iconic design language. The finish is available across the entire Occhio range, ensuring design consistency for any project or interior concept.
