Botanic House

Resting in the heart of Sydney’s lush Royal Botanic Garden, Botanic House pays homage to its natural surroundings with it’s biophilic centric interior design. Abundant wooden finishes evoke warmth and tranquillity, creating a harmonious blend with the verdant backdrop.

One challenge was illuminating this naturally bright space, primarily used during daylight hours. The result is a space that is light and airy while exuding a welcoming glow. This was achieved through carefully selected down lights, custom fixtures, and decorative lighting, all of which accentuate the natural beauty of the materials, creating an atmosphere of comfort and relaxation.

Twenty years ago, Japanese paper met Céline Wright. Lightness, poetry and balance define her style, which marks the spirit of her lamps. From a simple pencil drawing, which defines the lines of an object, Céline Wright molds a shape she wants “unique and alive”. Just like a sculptor, the artist carries out a volume with the help of specific materials, which will then give birth to a form. With this form, she lets the matter and the light carry her, according to a speculative and artistic approach, which favors desire and attractiveness.
