Francesco Iannone and Serena Tellini founded CONSULINE in 1986. Their research pursues innovation in the form and application of light. They came up with the idea and applied development in the world of the Monza Method, which sees the integration of lighting technology and neuroscience.

In their long career they have designed the lighting of exhibitions and museums, churches and human spaces all over the world. Among their most famous projects: the lighting of the Formula 1 Circuit in Shanghai, the lighting Master Plan for the Beijing Olympic Games, the lighting of the National Grand Theatre in Beijing, the Galleria Carracci Palazzo Farnese in Rome, the LAC in Lugano, the Palazzo Pubblico in Siena.

They have illuminated major exhibitions – Giovanni Bellini, Lorenzo Lotto and Tiziano at the Scuderie del Quirinale in Rome – but also contemporary art exhibitions such as Tony Cragg in Lucca, Richard Avedon in Milan, Egon Schiele and Arnaldo Pomodoro in Lugano. In Monza, they illuminated the Museo del Tesoro del Duomo and the Zavattari Chapel, where the Monza Method was created and developed.

They have curated the lighting of historic centers and cities in Italy and abroad. Their project for the urban lighting of the City of Rome in 1998 won the National Competition of Ideas “Vie di luce alla riscoperta dei piani di Sisto V”.

They are the authors of lighting fixtures and entire collections for some of the main brands in the lighting sector, including Artemide, Targetti, Siteco, Osram, Fos Nova, Fivep, Ghidini, Performance in Light, OYLight, Luceplan, L&L, Lam32.

For the Star lamp (produced by OYlight) and the Four Seasons System (produced by Performance in Lighting) they were awarded the ADI INDEX Compasso d’Oro prize in 2006 and 2008.

They won the LUX award 2018, the ICONIC Award 2018 and the German Design Award 2019 for Palladiano by L&L, and the (d)ARC Award 2020 for minimum MAXIMUM by LAM32.

In 2019 they received the PLDR “Professional Lighting Design Recognition” for Lifetime Achievement.

In 2023, Light Middle East – the event organized by Messe Frankfurt that just ended in Dubai – listed the Monza Method among the three major trends in the world of lighting.

Today they combine the application study of the Monza Method in complex anthropic spaces with constant experimentation in the world of lighting design.

2023 marks the beginning of the collaboration with Daylight Italia, a company that since 2013 has been designing, producing and distributing light bulbs with a revolutionary concept worldwide, a synthesis of cutting-edge technologies, elegance of design and attention to the sensorial aspects of light.
