Perched on the hillside of Springfield in South Australia, this modern crafted home is certainly hard to miss. The surrounding landscape is boldly dominated by the exterior use of exposed concrete and natural stone. Stepping through the gates, an instant feeling of intrigue entices you. Our Luna Flex Mini Strip lighting effortlessly illuminates the staircases, and well balanced landscape lighting guides you into this architectural wonder. 
 Taking you further into the heart of the home you are greeted by the floating EcoSmart fireplace that accentuates the relaxed atmosphere and connects you to many adjoining spaces. To the left the Kitchen takes advantage of our LED strip lighting, recessed Titanium downlights and the reflected light from the Madrid wall lights. To the right you are exposed to the rich timber detailing of the Living room that is accented by our Unios Titanium Surface Mounted Downlights. The protruding black cannisters reduce unwanted glare and add to the architectural statement of this room.  Set a short distance away, the outdoor room takes on the breathtaking views of the Adelaide skyline complete with a well equipped outdoor kitchen and luxurious in-ground pool. The surrounding landscape is simple so not to draw away from the main attraction, and our surface mounted downlights can be controlled easily for ambience via the Casambi Bluetooth mesh system. It really is a home to immerse yourself in and enjoy the many aspects that it has to offer.

Just 30 minutes from the Adelaide CBD lies the historic and picturesque German township of Hahndorf. A popular tourism destination and home to some of South Australia's best loved wineries, Hahndorf expresses a rich history of quality and craftsmanship. The new Sidewood Estate cellar door and restaurant is no exception to this, as it has built up a remarkable reputation through its premium cider and wine ranges.  Connecting the landscapeContrast of light and dark plays a big part in stimulating our senses, and by combining a variety of our steps lights, garden spike lights, strip lighting, festoon lighting and bollard lighting we were able to produce a cohesive design that connected the surrounding landscaped gardens to the main building. The feature gum in the decked outdoor balcony has been wrapped in our commercial grade fairy light system called Twinkly. It can be controlled via a free app through any smart phone device to not only change colour, but custom design any pattern they wish. The black step lights mounted to each pole under the railing (picture below) are our own Saffire step lights. Simple and discreet they create quite an impact for only 1W. The stairs are illuminated by washing light out over the step, not up into your eyes. The Keo Horizon step lights do a great job of this, and are impact resistant meaning they could even be driven over! Our little Quartz hardscape lights show the way down the lush green croquet lawns, and our IP68 weatherproof Halo Strip Lighting is under mounted into the handrails at the entry to lead and welcome you to the estate. For a more romantic and fun vibe our own Florence Festoon lights can be seen draped across the back verandah, adding warmth and visual interest. Interior Lighting - Relax and stay a while Warm white lighting is a key element in softening a space to induce relaxation and comfort. Venues like cellar doors, wineries, restaurants, wedding venues and the likes are there to invite you in and encourage you to experience what they have to offer. Downlights are generally the go-to for many people, but as you can see from the photo's we've taken here at Sidewood, wall lights, pendant lights, recessed step lights and strip lighting all offer interest and ambience whilst also adding a sense of character and purpose. Utilising reflected lighting and fittings with lateral spread ensures balance and ambience. When working with exposed rafters or beams, track lighting offers a practical solution, especially for hospitality venues. The flexibility of being able to move fixtures, add on more lights and manipulate the angles of the lights really allows the space to adapt for various uses and functions. 
Let us know what your working on. Remember lighting really is worth taking the time to discuss with your architect or builder as it can change the whole feel to your new build. At LED Outdoor + Architectural we are here to help. From fixture selections to full lighting plan designs, our friendly and professional team are keen to make your space look the best it can.
