Install
Dark camp interior made for light starved clients. Solution was to create a light-industrial/salvaged-parts chandelier to deliver high-performance lighting, delivered in 3 layers.
Decorative Chandelier
1 – Uplight: upper salvaged flywheel houses 4 inexpensive halogen work light lamps flooding vaulted ceiling with indirect, dimmable light. Amber mica glows below. Gray rainy days become bright and cheery.
2 – Decorative layer: eight porcelain sockets with funky lampshades are for the character. Little practical light is delivered, with low wattage for less glare.
3 – Downlights: eight 4″ diameter pipe tees house r-30 flood lights, deeply recessed, for dimmable downlight – bright enough to read.
The Results
Highly collaborative team effort from concept to resourcing of parts, composition, performance evaluation, assembly, finishes, installation, and funky lampshades.
