Lighting News

I'm up very early this morning to share some finds with you before we head away for the night. With it still being dark outside these new lighting brands and products seem especially fitting.  Starting with HIMMEE, the new Finnish lighting brand by Designer Timo Niskanen, the products evoke a Scandinavian feel which immediately appeals. With a goal to produce high quality lighting for lovers of design, the LENTO Pendant Family is a great example. I love the classic range of shapes and monochrome finish.

The FILLY Long Neck Floor Lamp is another favourite. Its simple design, clean lines and mix of black aluminium, solid oak and concrete are spot on. I would love this for our living room!

Unplugged is a beautiful new collection of candle and tea light holders by Nordic lighting company Northern Lighting. Created to provide mood-enhancing alternatives to electric lighting, the range covers everything from stylishly small tea lights to larger, multi- functional designs. I'm always on the lookout for new ideas for candle holders, and these fit the bill perfectly.

I'm also loving these new releases by Copenhagen design studio New Works. Working with a range of designers, the pieces have been created with a mix of materials including toned glass, concrete, steel and copper. Currently exhibiting at the Stockholm Furniture Fair, I'm sure we'll be seeing a lot more of these beautiful designs around the web soon!

A reminder before I go to enter this week's fantastic giveaways for a $150 voucher from Aura and a one year subscription to Homestyle. 

Wishing everyone in NZ a fun and relaxing long weekend!
