Ron Rezek

b. 1946

Ron Rezek is considered a leading American industrial designer, perhaps best known for his versatility in lighting and ceiling fan design. A graduate of the University of California, Los Angeles, Rezek began his career teaching art and architecture. He has formed two companies in his lifetime: Ron Rezek Lighting, which was sold in 2004, and The Modern Fan Co., the only American company dedicated to the design and production of ceiling fans. Rezek currently designs for Artemide, creating sophisticated, decisively modern lighting in metal using energy efficient bulbs.
