Filigree Spheres

These sphere lights from Terrain are wonderful. They have a Moroccan flair to them. They are created by hand hammering the brass shapes and then silver plating them. I think these would look fabulous in some of our southern California Retail spaces don't you?

Modern Antler Chandeliers A Lighting Trend

Since living in Colorado, I acquired a taste for Antlers. I use to love the simple discovery of finding a shed deer or elk antler on a hike. I still have a few that I just place around my house to remind me of the Colorado outdoors. And how can one resist these fabulous antler chandeliers. The first two are made my long time friends, Niki and Jared Davis of North Rim Glass. The ceramic versions are for sale by Design within Reach. Both are wonderful and would look great in a modern home or an Aspen Lodge. Oh Deer! I can't decide.

Resin Light Boxes

Love these multicolor resin box lights that Lexington Design + Fabrication designed for the new Boa Steakhouse in West Hollywood. The Boa Lights also conserve energy, lit internally by hundreds of tiny white LEDs. The restaurant looks amazing.

Retro Lighting

I am going to studying all things Industrial Modern for a while. Completely digging these lights.

This is called the Rensslear from School House Electric.

This is called the Rensslear Double from School House Electric.

Has your lighting gone to the birds?

These fun lighting choices are both from Anthropologie's web site.

The first piece is the Magpie Chandelier. Magpie's are know for their abilities to collect and scavenge. The light is made in South Africa.

The second piece is titled Songbird Chandelier, it retails for $798.00. I love all the faux birds. I really want to do a take on creating my own version of this fun piece.
