MIX IT UP FOUR TIPS TO SORT INTERIOR LIGHTING
A
dd to the overall design of a space by mixing it up with both floor and table lighting. Multiple light sources can enhance a room’s ambience and mood, while a tall floor lamp teamed with table lamps in different colours and designs can really amp up the interest and wow factor.
1 MAKE A STATEMENT
A table lamp doesn’t have to be large to make a statement – smaller designs can have just as much impact. Create drama in a minimalist space with an eccentric black lamp with a shiny black base, a cool retro design or a table lamp with fun floral details.
2 ALL ABOUT THE SCALE
Consider the size of your sofa before deciding on a floor lamp to sit over it. Bigger is generally better with large or long fixtures in a space, so instead of teaming a small floor lamp with a
spacious modular couch, go for something that is more to scale and your decorating dilemma will be solved. The same goes for small occasional chairs. Anything too large just isn’t necessary so tone it down and look for something smaller to medium-sized instead.
3 LESS IS MORE
Downlights provide beautiful ambient lighting to a room. However, be careful not to overdo it. Remember that downlighting shouldn’t be a space’s sole source of light; use them sparingly for the best result. Avoid your living room’s ceiling looking like a runway and instead place your downlighting strategically, with a large floor lamp doing most of the illuminating work.
4 PLACEMENT IS KEY
Don’t ruin the look of your lounge room by stringing a lamp cord across the carpet to the power point. Not only will it ruin the style of your space, but having cords lying around can increase the risk of trips. Avoid this unsightly mistake by having another outlet installed near your couch or opting for a different type of light, like a pendant light.

eiling fans are a fine option for providing a space with cool breeze, especially during the warmer months. However, cooling is not a fan’s only use; a well-designed ceiling fan can not only serve as an embellishment to any room but a fan in the kitchen can help to stir away hot air, making cooking and baking a breeze. If it’s time to replace your ceiling fan or purchase a new one, there’s a lot to consider. What size ceiling fan should you buy? Should you choose a DC fan? What is the best way to use your fan in the warmer months? Should you buy ceiling fans with lights? What is the benefit of a reversing switch? Today’s ceiling fans are more stylish than ever, with more choices than in the past. So, in order to avoid making the task of searching for a ceiling fan too overwhelming, Lighting Illusions has compiled the following helpful tips:

Increase room comfort and save on energy bills by running your ceiling fan and air conditioning system at the same time. We all know keeping cool with airconditioning is essential here in Queensland during the warmer months, but then the running costs of a ceiling fan just can’t be beat. By using both, the ceiling fan will help to circulate the cool air coming from the airconditioning system, which in turn means you can set the temperature a bit higher. The higher the airconditioner’s temperature, the lower the energy usage.

fan helps you to save on electricity costs and a DC ceiling fan can use as little as 3.8W of power. Lighting Illusions has a range of colourful and well-designed ceiling fans with LED lights to choose from, sure to add charm to any room.

Cover all seasons by looking for a ceiling fan with a reversing switch for both summer and winter operations. During summer, the switch can be moved so that fan blades rotate counter-clockwise, helping to circulate a breeze inside your living room or office. In winter, change the switch so that the blades spin clockwise, pushing warm air back into your room.

SIX TIPS FOR EXTERIOR LIGHTING
B
ring brightness and welcoming ambience to your home and garden with exterior lighting. Exterior lights, such as deck and in-ground lights, wall and pillar lights and sensor lights can illuminate paths and walkways, driveways or other areas to provide safety for yourself, your family and guests, and prevent intruders by keeping your home’s exterior well-lit. You can also make use of lighting effects to highlight your favourite plants or trees, or set a mood. Read on for our hints and tips on creating a more effective use of exterior lighting ideal to your home.
1 CONCEAL THE LIGHT SOURCE Use lights to accentuate your home, garden and plants, while making sure to hide the light source. The light fixture should be concealed so that onlookers will only focus on the illuminated parts of your yard. However, if you plan on using lighting fixtures that are decorative, make sure they are visible. 2 WE ARE THE PROFESSIONALS As
exterior lighting specialists, we know about new trends, products and innovation. We can save you money as well as time, while providing you
OUT SMART EXTERIOR
with a vastly improved exterior lighting plan for your home.
3 LIGHT UP THE PATH Keep your family and visitors safe while walking to the doorway by illuminating the path with exterior inground lights. Aim the light towards the ground and not upwards. 4 DO NOT EXAGGERATE Make sure your house would not look overly decorated with bright lights. Try a much softer glow for your outdoors but with exceptions of pathways and driveways that need to be well-lit. 5 ENERGY-EFFICIENT LIGHTING
Nowadays, it is more advisable to install lowvoltage exterior lights that can create the perfect ambience for your yard and garden while conserving a lot of energy.

hen it comes to decorating and design, home owners want their spaces to be a reflection of them so they choose the colours and styles that fit their personal aesthetic. Lighting is a big part of the process; but it’s an area that can be overlooked. A lot of people don’t think about how significant their lighting choices might be in the overall look and feel of their home until they are ready to change or install lighting and realise they just aren’t sure what they should be getting. One great choice in lighting is the pendant light – it’s versatile and can be used in different rooms and spaces, with Lighting Illusions having many designs to choose from. From a utilitarian look to something much more elaborate, a pendant light from Lighting Illusions will fit seamlessly into your design and provide you with a look you’ll love. When choosing a style of pendant light to suit your space, remember that colour matters. You might want a light that blends into the colours of your decor, or you might want something that stands out and becomes the focal point of the space – this is common in kitchens, but there is no reason it can’t be done in other rooms as well. Another great benefit of the pendant light is that many styles are height adjustable, making them ideal for homes with varying ceiling heights, and over spaces such as dining tables and kitchen breakfast bars. Your installing electrician can place the light where you want it, so you don’t have it too low and getting in the way in its new location; this can be a problem with some pendant lights, but it’s easily avoided if you

work with your electrician at the time of installation. From standard lighting options that will blend in with most anything to colours and styles that will become a focal point for years to come, pendant lights can give any room in your home a fresh, new look. Choose pendant lights that will give your space the illumination you’re looking for, with a style that fits your home, and you can enjoy them for a long time.

t seems right now is the most exciting time in the lighting trade since Thomas Alva Edison first came up with a practical and long-lasting electrical globe. The recent advances in LED lighting are so amazing that the three scientists who were responsible were awarded this year’s Nobel Prize for Physics. Their masterstroke was the invention of blue LEDs, which are what made LEDs useful as primary sources of interior lighting. Lighting Illusions recommends LED lights for Australian households due to their energy efficiency and the fact that they’re so long lasting. However, it’s actually because of what LED lighting has done for the developing world, with more than a billion people worldwide living without proper access to electricity, that the Nobel Committee awarded the prize this year. When you can’t plug into the electrical grid, solar power is one of the solutions, but until energy-efficient LED lights came onto the market, the smaller solar panels most people could afford were just not enough to power electric lights.
LIGHTING
REVOLUTION LED LIGHTING — A BREATH OF FRESH AIR FOR THE DEVELOPING WORLD Ten years ago, LEDs were too costly for poorer families, but as time went on, their efficiency grew by 100 per cent every year just as their price was halving. Now, people can get a helpful amount of light for less than a watt of energy. Even 0.1 watts will give you enough light to check on your baby in the middle of the night. What is absolutely crucial in developing countries right now is that the combination of LED lights and solar panels is so affordable that it has become a worthwhile commercial proposition for many companies, which means that access to lighting is spreading fast around the world.

With starter lights at only a few dollars, it’s no surprise more than 28 million people in Africa – people who aren’t on an electrical grid – are now using LED lighting in their homes. It’s not until you realise what most people in the developing world were using before that you discover just how much LED lights have transformed their lives. When you use wood fires and expensive kerosene lamps in small houses to provide light, indoor air pollution and fire risk are both huge problems. When you’re a child growing up in a smoky, dimly lit home, it’s incredibly hard to study in the evenings. But, it’s vital for both children and adults in underprivileged communities to be able to educate themselves and stay informed so that they can help improve life for their families and others in their communities. With LED lights providing hour after hour of reading light for a fraction of the cost of kerosene, the future is looking quite literally brighter every day for people in the developing world. And, in case you ever wondered, that’s the kind of revolution that gets you a Nobel Prize. 13W WARM WHITE LED ROUND DOWNLIGHTT SKU: 59737 IP44 RATING AND 825LM OUTPUT
