About Lucas Miles Atelier – a creative studio for sustainable lighting and textile art

Lucas Miles Atelier was founded from a love of craftsmanship, sustainability and the philosophy of “make do and mend.” Based in La Herradura in Southern Spain, the studio focuses on vintage lamp restoration, custom lampshades and textile art.

Alongside lighting design, the atelier hosts tufting workshops where participants explore creative textile techniques and produce handmade pieces.

Vintage lamps are often restored with new electrical components while lampshades are created using carefully selected or remnant fabrics, combining sustainability with unique design.

It all started with restoring pre-loved vintage lamps, giving them a second life, and grew into crafting bespoke lampshades and thoughtful framing. The atelier has always been about honouring materials, keeping things out of landfill, and showing that the objects we live with can carry stories as well as beauty. We create and deliver custom lampshades across the Costa Tropical - see where we work for more details.

That spirit also sparked the Woolly Mammoth Tufting Club — a playful, hands-on workshop series where people come together to explore the art of tufting in a relaxed, community setting. Whether you’re creating a rug, wall piece, or simply trying something new, the club is about enjoying the process, making with your hands, and having fun together.

At Lucas Miles Atelier, everything is guided by the belief that craftsmanship, sustainability, and joy belong at the heart of daily life.
