Founded on 1958 by Antonio Pedret, Pedret Lighting continues to lead in the most prestigious lighting market with the same rigor, mastery and passion of long ago. Every element and every process, from the smelting of the ingots, mechanized, plating, polishing and composition, has harnessed the skill of our craftsmen who are aware that attention to every small detail is the secret of exceptional work.

We started working for Pedret Lighting in 2009. Designing some promotional items, including material for Fair Habitat Valencia and Euroluce 2011. This work has been completed this September with the launch of the new website.  A project developed with Batiscafo Studio.

Where the Andes Meet the Amazon is a lavishly-illustrated  book that portrays some of the biological, ethnographic, and historical diversity of one of the largest protected rainforest areas in the world: the fabulously rich wilderness areas of Bahuaja-Sonene and Madidi National Parks.

This handsome, 336-page book is illustrated with 336 color photographs from the award-winning photographer, André Bärtschi, and is written by the multiple-Emmy winning writer and filmmaker, Kim MacQuarrie. Both the author and photographer have spent years roaming the Andes and the Amazon; between them, they have collaborated on a simply stunning book.

When Peru and Bolivia joined forces to create these massive, co-joined parks in the mid-1990s, they showed the world a rare, bi-national feat: For one of the first times in history two countries had established reserves adjacent to one-another, thus doubling the conservation impact in an area already considered one of the most biologically diverse in the world-the eastern slope of the Andes. Located only a half-hour plane flight from Cuzco or La Paz, the parks spread from snow-capped Andean peaks all the way down through the cloud forest to the lowland Amazon. Between them, they protect some 3.5 million hectares (8.6 million acres), an area roughly the size of Switzerland.

Bilingual edition Spanish/english. First edition, 1992, second edition, 1998. Publisher Francis O. Patthey and sons. Introduction by John Terborgh. Written by Kim Macquarrie, photographs by André Bärtschi.

The largest tropical rainforest biosphere reserve on earth lies at the furthest tip of the upper Amazon River in the remote south-eastern region of Peru. Only 100 miles from the spectacular Inca ruins of Machu Picchu, Manu is unique in that it protects three, highly-distinct ecosystems. Manu currently supports four native ethnic groups -two of wich are still uncountacted-and protects 1,8881,200 hectares of land. Almost half the size of Switzerland, Manu is perhaps the most species-rich protected area to be found anywhere on earth.

The profits from this book will be used directly for the conservation of the Manu National Park and Biosphere Reserve.

Gold of the Andes, volume 1 and 2, relate the habitat of the South American Camelids. God created the llamas of these cold regions for the good of the inhabitants, who without this animal would have a very difficult life, since these are very arid lands where there is no cotton for clothes, like in warm climates, and to have to purchase it elsewhere for so many people would be impossible.

For which reason, God compensated for the barrenness of the uninhabited punas and paramos of these sierras by putting there such a large number of these docile animals that they cannot be counted, for they have been all around there since anciest times, and were all the wealth of all the mountain Indians; for they clothed themselves in their wool and made shoes from their skins; and so wore nothing on their bodies other than what they obtained from the llamas, eating their meat, and using them as beasts of burden to carry loads back and forth.
