So it would be my intention to have them softly illuminated for a little bit of drama and eye candy. Whilst I can appreciate the simplicity and purity of this design, I don’t feel that the bright glare of a bunch of light bulbs would be conducive to a decent day’s hard graft.
It won’t form the main lighting within the space. Within my particular design scheme this type of lighting will be used as purely decorative. More bulbs = more ambience and much more presence. I’m not completely in awe of this particular style – I find a single bulb too stark and much prefer a grouped arrangement like the images above. But if you could just avert your eyes away from the chairs (difficult, I know) to the teeny, tiny light fitting above the table, you’ll see a single exposed bulb. Yep, you’re very right, they are beautiful chairs. This was the starting point for my ‘light bulb’ moment (yes, a very unfortunate pun but I couldn’t help it). That initial design element, object or space that provided inspiration and assisted the creative design process. I like it a lot.Īs with all of my design concepts, there’s always a starting point.
I actually can’t think of any design concept that includes such an extreme approach to simplicity and minimalism.Īctually, sometimes with the sheer volume and variation of designs, patterns, materials, textures and finishes available within the design industry nowadays, it’s quite refreshing to strip a design element right back to the bare essentials. But considering the commercial space that I’m required to source lighting for has taken inspiration from the industrial roots of its local area, this lighting should look, well, um, awesome.Īnd to be honest, if you’re a contemporary design company that wants to make quite a big design statement and first impression, this kinda design aesthetic will most certainly create a buzz. This will NOT work in a ‘country’ kitchen with chicken motifs and gingham table cloths. This particular look can only work in specific industrial inspired, eclectic spaces. I’m not saying that everyone should rush out to their nearest DIY store, buy a few bulbs and hang ’em over the dining table. Or perhaps not so sad, when it involves an extremely naked Daniel Craig.īut what happens when you arrange light bulbs in a more creative fashion in little bundles? This is what happens:
