Design Highlight: Statement Lighting

As designers we are always sourcing. We take pride in the fact that we can usually find the most beautiful, quality and unique items in any shop. And when we fall in love with an object, you’ll often see us using it… as much as our clients will trust us! At MPD our signature design move? Statement lighting.

Variation in these pieces we love is key when it comes to putting a space together. We find ourselves thinking initially in terms of scale and space, and then allowing the finishes to speak to us. This is when we love when our favourite items come in multiple finishes.

We absolutely love the hand rubbed brass finish of these gorgeous pendants, but sometimes a space calls for a moodier, darker look with the bronze shade. The beauty of these ceiling lights is most elements are adjustable, including the cord which can come in alternating finishes. In this case it’s all about the scale. They are statement lighting, which is a signature of MPD design.

There’s no denying when we place the right pendants in a space, you can tell immediately if they are the right ones or not. That being said, we will often create cut outs for our clients of lighting so they can start to envision scale. This is a massive Pro Tip: Make sure you check the dimensions of lighting before committing. Case in point would be these gorgeous Goodman pendants, which are larger in scale but in the right space - complete it.

It’s incredible the impact lighting has to bring the space alive and act as a focal point. We think it can often be the most important pieces to invest in. Which means you need to spend your time wisely to decide.
