cocteau is an upscale restaurant with a particularly lavish interior. the lighting was designed so it compliments the architect’s concept; integrating the correct color temperature along with the correct power output drew upon the architecture of the design. to add flow to the differently heighted wooden cladding, LED strips were integrated within to give warmth to the vast interior, creating an intended sense of synergy.

jean cocteau’s works are distributed onto a bookshelf inspired luminaire which is lit using invisible LED strips. this falls perfectly within the modernist interior of the restaurant.

to provide an ambient light, ceiling mounted rectangular boxes are lit with fluorescent lamps. however, to accentuate the lighting of the dining area, directional spotlights are installed.

the lighting scheme is designed and installed so as to provide each area with the intensity of lighting needed, intentionally allowing some spaces to remain in relative darkness.

Residential projects are often some of the most challenging that we work on. Realising personal tastes, through design and technology, to create comfortable spaces is something we excel at. Our purposeful application and integration of light throughout a home brings great value to the end result and creates a functional yet welcoming environment.

The natural and artificial lighting follow the tempo of the apartment, highlighting the spaces and materials employed, concealed fittings to provide theatrical effect, wall lamps with dual light emission reflecting on the corridor’s ceiling and custom made decorative lighting fitting for dining room.
