As winter draws to a close, Olà invigorates spring with warming copper and delicate floral tones.

The composition of dainty crystal pendants embraced by a bold, strong and impactful metal structure are reminiscent of the traditional chandelier. Despite the contrast, the metal housing speaks softly to its glowing underside with smooth circular and oval shapes. Designed by Fly Design Studio for Masiero, Olà secures itself as a timeless classic resulting in a resolutely modern chandelier. See the whole family here. 

Stylish, simplistic and Scandinavian, Nordlux presents to us the Artist pendant designed by Henrik Bonnelycke.

Painting LED light through a luminous matt diffuser, the Artist demonstrates poise and elegance much like an inspiring live performance artist. The Artist pendant can silence its presence in rooms with a view, or create atmosphere when clustered. The versatility this piece demonstrates, is both innovative and reflective of the Design For The People movement driven by Nordlux. Available in 2 sizes and a matt grey finish, paint your picture with the Artist.

After months of planning and preparation and with a huge effort from all of our team we found ourselves opening the doors, ready to go for Sydney Indesign 2015! It was a massive 2 days, with Special Lights hosting the DQ round table at 10AM on Friday to kick things off, joined by some of Australia's hottest emerging designers. What followed was a blur of buses, food, drink and magnificent people. Saturday gave tribute to LED technology with our very own LED Lab, hosted by our head designer and lighting guru Scott where we explored a brief history of the LED, how it works, where it's going and a showcase of some beautiful Italian products from Luce and Light.

Our pièce de résistance had heads turning and people talking, or perhaps it was the models? The Australian debut of Drylight, our weather-proof chandelier by Masiero, was showered all day long by our brother modelling duo Luca and Davide. Roaming photographers and wandering caterers kept our visitors in full swing throughout the event and by Saturday evening we were certainly all exhausted. Special Lights would like to give a massive thank you to all those who visited us during Sydney Indesign and we hope to see you all again soon!
