Piha House banner

This project was a moderately sized house hidden away in the mountains overlooking PIHA designed with a very contemporary look. The mission was to complement the style using light fittings and solutions to enhance the ambient and the coastal feel the final client was looking for.

The briefing was simple: "nothing too obvious", in respect of the lighting system selected, and " relax " the password for the target. Lighting Solutions did have a free hand on this project to propose extreme minimalistic choices.

The result is a well-balanced atmosphere enveloping the daily lighting necessity and sustaining the need of a modern family with busy parents and energetic kids.

We have the right light where we need it when we need it, says Sean, the owner.

From an application point of view, the final product of this project is extremely high-tech to achieve a minimalistic look. 

We managed to obtain a very good result not only in relation to the light levels achievable from the fittings but also in relation to the ‘home feel' sought after.

Lighting is an abstract concept, difficult to quantify, and sometimes with unexpected results. the PIHA house is a premium example of a very well-planned project with an excellent outcome.

Here below is a short video of the experience directly from the client.

About the
Professional

Lighting Solutions work with professionals in the architecture and design industry to catapult their projects to the next level, with premium customizable lighting systems, supporting innovative application ideas and visual solutions to enhance communication and space.

Our approach to light is to allow it to draw attention to surrounding spaces, volumes and objects creating connections between them. Our approach to people is to connect, allowing time to listen and understand their needs or vision to establish a thread that guides the project from concept to completion and beyond.

Since 2006 the small team at LightingSolutions steadily delivered solutions that exceed expectations offering a comprehensive service to professionals looking for cutting edge concepts with exceptional execution.

We found clients eager for the skills, insight, creativity and leadership we can offer and continually strive for more.

“It really seems that the light source is still a reminder of the origins of things. Even if it no longer illuminates the family circle, dispersed and multiplied, it is still the sign of a privileged intimacy, attributes a particular value to things, creates shadows, invents presences ” Jean Baudrillard, Le système des objects, 1968.

At ArchiPro we recognise and acknowledge the existing, original and ancient connection Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have to the lands and waterways across the Australian continent. We pay our respects to the elders past and present. We commit to working together to build a prosperous and inclusive Australia.
