Official press release from Lumina Forge by LightinUp SRL: launch of the B2B AI platform for bespoke luxury lighting design and engineering.
Generative design, parametric CAD, and industrial engineering in one cloud platform — from concept to executive project in minutes
LIGHTINUP SRL, an Italian luxury lighting manufacturer based in Padua, Veneto, with nearly twenty years of artisanal excellence, officially announces the launch of Lumina Forge — the world's first B2B AI platform dedicated to the design and industrialization of high-end custom lighting.
Available at luminaforge.lightinup.it, the platform transforms a text brief or reference image into a complete industrial project: studio-quality photorealistic renders, A4 parametric CAD drawings with dimensions and BOM, and 3D models in GLB, STL, and STEP — all generated in minutes using the most advanced AI currently available (Google Gemini 3, Vertex AI).
Lumina Forge is the result of almost two decades of Italian manufacturing experience fused with the frontier of artificial intelligence. It is not a generic rendering tool — it is an end-to-end industrial engineering system able to understand Made in Italy materials, structural lighting geometries, and the technical requirements of the luxury contract hospitality market.
“Lumina Forge is not just software: it is the result of nearly twenty years of jobsites, bespoke projects, and premium materials distilled into an AI engine that finally makes Italian artisanal manufacturing accessible to designers worldwide. For the first time, a five-star hotel in Dubai or an architecture studio in New York can move from idea to complete industrial project in less than 24 hours — with quality standards rooted in artisanal manufacturing from Padua.”
Lumina Forge is a unique case in the landscape of Italian innovative manufacturing startups: not a software house entering design, but an established industrial manufacturer digitizing and scaling its know-how through AI. Lightinup Srl brings nearly twenty years of real executive projects — 3,000+ completed commissions in 40+ countries — as proprietary dataset and non-replicable competitive advantage.
The technological core of Lumina Forge is its parametric CAD engine — built on CadQuery and Build123d — capable of translating a photorealistic render into a complete A4 technical drawing with dimensions, bill of materials (BOM), material specifications, and construction notes. An industrial shopdrawing, ready for production and quotation, generated in seconds.
Lumina Forge is designed for professionals operating in the world's most demanding markets. Its primary target includes architects, interior designers, FF&E specialists for luxury hospitality, and procurement specialists from international hotel groups. The platform also addresses contract manufacturers and OEMs seeking to digitize their bespoke design offering.
