Project Introduction

This high-end residential project in Canterbury was developed in close collaboration with the property developer, targeting a mature and design-conscious buyer profile. The overall lighting concept emphasised the use of brass and handcrafted glass, while Lucretia was responsible for delivering a comprehensive lighting design across the entire residence, ensuring a cohesive and refined lighting environment.

Strategic Lighting Planning & Budget Optimisation

At the early stage of the project, Lucretia’s lighting design team worked closely with the developer to create a tailored lighting plan for each space based on its layout and functional requirements. As a development project, strict budget control was essential. We carefully balanced cost and design quality to deliver the best possible outcome within the defined budget.

Cohesive Living & Hallway Lighting Design

For the living area and hallway, the Flora R 1100 Pendant Light series was selected as a unified design feature. Combining solid brass structure with handcrafted glass leaves, the series presents a natural, organic form inspired by floral elements. Through careful composition and scaling, the lighting creates a continuous visual rhythm across spaces while also serving as a sculptural focal point, enhancing both ambience and spatial quality.

Luxury Wardrobe Lighting with Crystal Elements

In the walk-in wardrobe, the client requested the inclusion of crystal elements with a soft, oval form to elevate the sense of luxury. In response, we developed the Trinity Halo Chandelier 180, delivering a refined lighting solution that enhances both functionality and spatial elegance.

Custom Kitchen Island Pendant Solution

For the kitchen island, we specified the Eve 1300 Linear Pendant Light, customised to 1800mm to match the length of the bench. The finish was also tailored to align with the colour of the kitchen fixtures, ensuring a seamless integration with the overall interior palette.

This project showcases Lucretia’s expertise in delivering high-end residential lighting solutions for development projects. By combining bespoke design elements with carefully selected standard products, and maintaining strict budget control, we successfully created a cohesive, refined, and highly functional lighting environment tailored to both the developer’s vision and the expectations of its target market.
