Tahunanui Smoky Lounge

Lighting Design Concept

The vision was to create a boudoir smoky lounge vibe, blending rich colours and unique interior design elements to craft a stylish and inviting space. The basement was renovated with burnt orange walls, a psychedelic mural, and modern black kitchen fixtures, all contributing to the overall theme.

Lighting played a critical role in achieving the desired atmosphere, while complementing the unique interior design. All luminaires specified were Switch Lighting Tunable White, allowing for versatile and dynamic lighting control throughout the apartment.

Cirro Ceiling Washer

Both the lounge and bedroom feature the Cirro Ceiling Washer for elegant indirect lighting. This luminaire casts a soft cloud-like illumination across the ceiling. And when integrated with Switch Lighting Intelligent Controls, controlling the colour temperature and intensity allowed the lighting to playfully interact with the surrounding materials, enhancing their textures and tones.

Zela Deep Tilt

Zela Deep Tilt fittings with black trim were specified in the kitchen, dining and bedroom spaces, where quality lighting is essential to ensure the natural wood grains and textures are portrayed in their best warm and rich tones.

Switch Lighting Intelligent Control Casambi Evolution Luminaire Controllers are connected to each luminaire in the property, ensuring full control of the mood throughout the apartment.

Zela Offset Deep Tilt

In the lounge, the Switch Lighting Zela Offset Deep Tilt luminaires are programmed into an automated lighting scene, transforming the mural wall into a dynamic work of art.

The vivid blues of the artwork come alive under the cool 4000K Casambi-enabled lighting, while the rich reds emerge with dramatic intensity as the lights slowly dim to a warm 1800K, enhancing the mural’s depth and vibrancy.
