Yvon Zautsen (1967) is an autonomous designer from Breda, The Netherlands and designs lighting under the name Zautsen-Lichtobjecten. She studied at the Academy of Arts St. Joost (1984-1990).
During her study, she resided in West-Africa for one year.
It was there, in the scarcity of light, that her fasciation for (mood)lighting arose.
For a number of years now she has focused exclusively on the creation of special light fixtures.
The lamps made by Zautsen are innovative and inspired by organic shapes, yet are straightforward in their appearance.
The light fixtures are manufactured by hand in het own studio.
