Introducing our Designer Gallery

As a leading designer lighting store in Australia, Urban Lighting collaborates with some of the industry's most exciting and innovative designers, bringing you an extensive range of designer lighting fixtures. We are passionate about our products and would like to showcase our extraordinary designers.

Why is light design so important?

Lighting design is a crucial element in interior design. It plays a vital role in setting the mood and creating an atmosphere in commercial and residential spaces. The proper lighting can enhance the beauty and functionality of any interior, while getting your lighting wrong can make a space feel dark, dull and uninviting., or even worse, stark and antiseptic. Proper lighting design highlights a room's essential features, showcasing architectural details, artwork, and furnishings.

Lights can bring these elements to life, adding depth and dimension to a space. Clever lighting design can also transform a room from a functional workspace to an atmospheric place for relaxation and entertainment. Lights create different moods and effects, such as warm and cosy or bright and energising, depending on the desired atmosphere and aesthetic. 

The light fixtures can also function as statement pieces or works of art, adding an extra layer of style and personality. An oversized chandelier, for example, becomes a room's focal point creating drama and style.

Urban Lighting Design’s Lighting Fixture Designers

Professionals specialising in designing and developing lighting fixtures are called Lighting fixture Designers. They work across all industries, including architecture, interior design, and product design. They are responsible for creating products that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing. 

Lighting materials

Browse our range, and you'll see designers use various materials to create fixtures, including metal, glass, plastic and more. They also use multiple types of lighting sources, such as LED and fluorescent, to create energy-efficient and long-lasting fixtures.

Ultimately, the right lighting design can significantly impact a room or space's overall look and feel, making it an essential element in any interior design project.
