About Plumen
Plumen was founded in 2010 by Nicolas Roope and Michael-George Hemus, they created the name Plumen, a combination of “plume,” the decorative feathers of a bird and “lumen”, the measurement of light, which reflect the values of the company. The Original Plumen 001 bulb was the world’s first designer low energy light bulb. A bright idea indeed.
