We had a recent family weekend excursion to Brunswick St primarily to visit The Fabric Store. After gathering some lovely cord, knits and denim for the girl's Winter wardobes we wandered to a cafe for an iced chocolate and then popped into Wilkins & Kent where we spied a potential drum light shade for above our new dining table in our new house. Imagine the shape of the shade in the left photo covered in fabric with the pattern in the middle photo but in the colorway of the right photo! (all fabrics are ink & spindle).
We are also liking this David Trubridge shade for the entry. Apparently, it is delivered in little plywood pieces to be put together ourselves, ummm, it might be fun.
We are also leaning towards three of these Ikea pendants over the kitchen island bench.
This is the fun stuff. Deciding on location of all powerpoints and switches and which lights they should control...less so!
The ability to have combinations of lights rather than a whole room full does require some thinking - we wish the builders of our place had put some more thought into it! Love the Tribridge designs - epecially The Flax.

Friends in Perth now have 3 of the David Trubridge shades - they were somewhat surpised when they turned up in much smaller boxes than they expected... and in small pieces!
ReplyDeleteBut they do now have 3D shapes I hope?
