Hudson Valley Lighting Group (HVLG), a leading designer and manufacturer of decorative and architectural lighting, is excited to announce its acquisition of SONNEMAN – A Way of Light, a premier brand renowned for its modern design sensibility, pioneering LED innovation, and sophisticated product architecture.
SONNEMAN joins the HVLG family of brands—Hudson Valley Lighting, Mitzi, Troy Lighting, Corbett, and CSL—each of which brings a unique aesthetic and design philosophy to a shared mission: delivering elevated lighting solutions to the residential and commercial markets.
This strategic acquisition significantly expands HVLG’s capabilities in the configurable LED category, positioning the group to meet growing demand for flexible, high-performance lighting across a wide range of applications. The addition strengthens HVLG’s offering in the residential-commercial crossover space, giving designers, specifiers, and customers more options than ever to bring bold design visions to life.
“SONNEMAN represents the best of what modern lighting can be—intelligent, artistic, and purposefully designed,” said David Littman, Founder & CEO of Hudson Valley Lighting Group. “Bringing this brand back into the HVLG family is both a strategic move and a personal milestone. It’s an opportunity to build on a legacy of innovation and to deliver even more value to our customers.”
This announcement also marks a homecoming of sorts: Littman was previously involved with SONNEMAN as a co-owner through 2018. Over the years, SONNEMAN has become synonymous with forward-thinking design, with standout innovations like the Suspenders® Architectural Lighting System and the Inside-Out™ collection.
With thousands of SKUs, and 95% of new introductions powered by LED, SONNEMAN enhances HVLG’s already expansive portfolio with advanced technology and architectural flexibility. Together, HVLG and SONNEMAN will offer customers an unparalleled depth of choice, design integrity, and scalable performance.
