Lighting Inspiration

It is just too hot to construct a proper post, so here is a barrage of unedited images of "de-light-ful" imagery.

Light of my life...

...I'm off to buy some Sputnik spokes this week, thought I've still got 4 rooms to light, 

and as the house is starting to look very eclectic, pretty much anything will go. Problem is lighting is so crucial, and the internet is rife with super attractive specimens, but at mortgage style prices, but once you've seen the good stuff the affordable just pales in comparison...

More light, Vicar?...

I love this design for bouncing light into a room. The mirrors also makes the windows look twice the size. When I finally secure my London pad I'll probably look into constructing them, although on 3 sides only, with a window seat. The depth should make an ideal bookcase. 

Sorted.

  

Also intrigued by the "fake" lights on the market. Haven't seen one in the flesh, but might save an otherwise dingy bathroom.

And along those lines, light boxes can give the impression of skylights.  PLUS you're bound to have at least one friend who gets really confused about the skylight in the middle of a basement flat...

Crystal clear...

Think ghost chair, think Starck right?

Well, there is a new contender. Drift have developed this wonderfully alluring encased wafting smoke series, also called Ghost. They look amazing, although quite boxy to sit on. I shall go perch in a showroom and report back.

They also make these etherial dandelion lights, which contrast perfectly with their copper and cement casings. Want.
