The return of ‘It’s all about light’

There are a massive amount of lighting manufacturers. Some are specialized for example in outdoor lighting, a brand like Ares, others do only Murano glass fixtures, like Barovier & Tosso, others have a massive selection of home and architectural light, like Artemide.

If you are choosing lighting, the best place to get started is at www.architonic.com , select interior or exterior lighting and any further categories. Now spend a couple of days at work getting excited about lights and getting no work done. Here at Blonde Design we also have a lighting catalogue that we will email you if you request it at info@blonde-design.com.

Now lighting can be taken very seriously. You can do architectural style lighting in your own home. You could use a series of spot lights along a wall more as a decorative pattern than to actually light your interior.

You can chose a light as a sculpture, freestanding, ceiling mounted or wall mounted, interior or exterior.

Lighting can be analyzed very technically. A 3d model of your room can be generated and the lighting inserted, giving you a clear visualization of your lighting.

At Blonde we do this mainly for larger architectural projects, but it can be very interesting on domestic projects too, especially if you decide to take your lighting more seriously.

At Blonde we love lighting; it is truly the single most transformative element in design.

Till next time…
