The stylish simplicity of Scandinavian design will be popular in interiors and lighting in 2015, according to leading Australian lighting company Brilliant Lighting.
The company has released an affordable range of on-trend decorative pendants inspired by
the simplicity of Nordic design and a pared back Japanese aesthetic. The high quality range is available exclusively through Bunnings Australia.
Interior designer and trend forecaster Bree Leech says it is easy to recreate the Scandi look at home using a few key features. 'Simple Scandi is where graphic geometry and clean lines meet
organic and relaxed finishes," Ms Leech says. 'Sometimes it takes on an industrial edge but the look is always clean and modern."
The Scandi look is epitomised by materials such as paper, pale unfinished timber and matt black
metal. It uses simple, limited palettes, often in neutral, charcoal, black and white with a pop of colour in detail, such as a lamp cord. Modern twists use pastels, such as on-trend pink.
Ms Leech says to complement the look, choose simple, contemporary designs from the Brilliant Lighting range.
'Modern lighting that combines any of the above elements works in the Scandi look," she says.
'Choose simple large industrial pendants or timber balanced-arm lamp bases with black or white
shades. Other options might include single colour or timber finish graphic geometric designs that feature shards, facets, cubes or polygons."
Established more than 25 years ago, Brilliant Lighting is committed to innovative design and quality. Acknowledged as an innovator in domestic lighting, it is one of the largest and most respected names in the Australian lighting industry with a range of more than 1500 products.
'If you are looking for a pendant, Brilliant Lighting's big, bold, industrial style Hugo pendant has a soft chalky finish which is perfect for a kitchen or dining room, while the Matrix adds a modern twist with its strong geometric design," Ms Hughes says.
'Our Pix range has table and floor lamp options in an angle-poise style with timber arm and exposed fabric cord."
All Brilliant Lighting products come with a 12-month warranty and use the latest LED technology, the most efficient and durable option on the market.
'LEDs last up to 25,000 hours and deliver power savings of up to 80 per cent compared with incandescent globes. They are so inexpensive to run and have such a long lifespan that they have the potential to save households an enormous amount of money in the short and long term," she says.
The new decorative pendants from Brilliant Lighting are available exclusively at Bunnings. Prices range from $29.90 – $399.00.
