Lighting is perhaps the single most important factor in creating and experiencing interior spaces. Both materials and form are enhanced with a well considered lighting design. In successfully illuminated spaces, light needs to be emitted in a variety of ways, and from multiple directions / levels. Anticipating how a room will be used, and designing for these functions creates space that is both flexible and rich in content.
Using two tables in this large dining room provided a more intimate setting for entertaining smaller groups, but our client wanted to have the option of dining at a single large table for special occasions. We worked in conjunction with Joel Berman Glass Studio, to create a feature light fixture that would allow for both these (+ other) options. The sculptural glass panels are lit by small LEDs while the table surfaces are perfectly illuminated by recessed down lights. Margot Richards was the lighting consultant for the entire project, and certainly cast her bright knowledgeable light. The penthouse was recently featured at Home DSGN.
