The Banksia chandelier light draws inspiration from the distinctive spiky cone of the banksia plant, first collected during the historic voyage of the Endeavor. Translating this natural form into a contemporary lighting sculpture, the design spirals outward in a dynamic and graceful pattern, evolving into a striking modern chandelier. Its sculptural presence captures both the elegance of organic forms and the precision of thoughtful craftsmanship.
The outer shell of the chandelier is composed of gently curved plywood elements, which can be left in their natural raw wood finish or tinted to create a vibrant, carousel-like palette. This versatility allows the Banksia chandelier to adapt seamlessly to a variety of interior aesthetics, from minimalist natural tones to bold, colorful installations. Each curve is carefully engineered to contribute to the overall spiral, creating a sense of movement and visual rhythm that draws the eye upward.
Illumination comes from bi-pin base LED bulbs discreetly mounted on a powder-coated central core. The LEDs cast light both outward and inward, highlighting the texture and curvature of the plywood elements while providing functional ambient lighting. The entire fixture is suspended from a mirror ACM ceiling plate, enhancing the reflective quality of the design and reinforcing its sculptural impact. The Banksia chandelier is a statement piece that combines natural inspiration, modern design, and meticulous attention to detail, transforming any space into an environment of warmth, sophistication, and dynamic visual interest.
