The Challenge: We asked two designers to create dining room concepts featuring the Sirius and Sirius Minor collections available from Living Lighting. One designer was asked to create a luxury dining space for a custom home using Sirius while the other was asked to create a glamorous space for a small condo using the smaller Sirius Minor.
Sirius and Sirius Minor: Sirius is a visually stunning LED fixture that looks like a starburst of light, perfect for a contemporary space. The fixture is available in two sizes (48″ and 54″ wide) and four stunning finishes; black, brushed nickel, gold and white. Sirius Minor is a scaled back version of this stunning fixture, only 32″ wide with thinner lights, making it perfect for adding the stunning contemporary flair even in a small space!
Blue out of Proportion: Our luxe custom home dining room challenge was tackled by Designer Jillian Straky who choose to pair the Sirius fixture in a stunning gold finish with deep, dramatic colors for a look that is sophisticated with a bohemian flair. You can see full details and sources here.
Mauvin’ on Up: Designer Dvira Ovadia tackled the challenge of creating a stunning condo-size dining space with a light and airy design concept that integrates hints of bold color and a stunning black finish for the Sirius Minor fixture. You can see full details and sources here.
