Lighting plays a key role in determining the look and ambience of a home and is no longer one of the last things to be considered in a new home. For the Jalcon Homes showhome, feature lighting was supplied by Lighting Direct.

Interior designer Denise Gale of Duo Design says the light fixtures were chosen to complement the contemporary style of the interior.

"We wanted to move away from the chandelier look, hence the choice of the contemporary Italian light fitting in the dining room," she says.

The U2 24L pendant light features a brushed nickel fixture with transparent glass balls. Their shape is echoed in the five incandescent Moon pendant lights in the entrance.

Chrome-trimmed Emotion incandescent wall lights were specified for the guest bedroom. These are designed to cast a soft glow on the ceiling as well as the bed.

Tall St Albans bedside table lamps in another bedroom enhance the gracious look of the room. The fabric lamps feature stands in a bronze finish.
