Over the next three decades, Kovacs expanded his New-York-based import business and became a pioneer designer of modern lighting fixtures. He designed fixtures with clean lines, unexpected twists and curves, and functional sophistication. He took a pragmatic yet playful approach to his work, always with a keen focus on forward looking design and integrating cutting edge technology. In 2000, the companywas acquired by the Minka Group, which continues to distribute lighting products under the Kovacs name.
