Light of My Life

We've begun researching lighting options for the house. Wisdom have installed plain battens in the majority of the house apart from the bathroom and ensuite which each have the IXL light/heat/fan and kitchen which has 6 x downlights. In hindsight, we could have down with some downlights in the bathrooms too (but let's not dwell on that electrical appointment!). We also have 4 footer lights in the home theatre and 4 alongside the stairs.

In most rooms, we'll have oyster lights, with something a little different in the study, home theatre and leisure/dining room. The entrance hallway will have a chandelier.

This is what we're thinking...

Entrance Hallway



Dining/Leisure Room

The large pendant for above the dining table and two of the smaller pendants for the other side of the room, near the lounge and fireplace. Not too much bling in one room? Simon is a little unsure but I LOVE. Let me know what YOU think!

The pendant at the top left of the pic..


Kitchen and Home Theatre
...with a dimmer switch for the Home Theatre so we can adjust brightness.

We're contemplating retractable fan lights for the bedrooms too.
Now to figure out how to pay for it all.....

    A girl can never have too much bling:) Its a big expense and a long term decision, a hard one. Check out Matt Blatt, he seems to have some funky designs too.
    We had a nightmare electrical appointment, convinced the girl was trying to chat up Craig with her electrical jargon he he. I still hate her.
