The island is the keystone of modern kitchen design. Sitting on the threshold of purposeful space and the laid back verve of the living and dining zones, the kitchen island is often defined by the beauty of its bench top materiality and the source of light above.
Suspended between horizontal planes and the two spaces designated as the heart of the home, pendant lighting has the unique capacity to unify the design dialogues that sit side by side in the home, separated by the kitchen island. Seen as an integral element to kitchen design when viewed from the living or dining space and vice versa, the gentle translucent presence of mouth blown glass can temper strong design elements in the surrounding space, distilling them to the purity of light itself. Alternatively, the enduring appeal of austere design, so perfectly embraced by the Belgian style trend, is elevated by kitchen island lighting which holds striking priority of place. Drawing the eye and bringing a sense of refinement to the gathering spaces of a home.
The unification of luxurious crafts exists through the Scandal Collection. Scandal casts a slim and finely considered silhouette. Notable for its barrel-like cuff and inlay Scandal’s elongated proportions are capped end-to-end by rounded mouthblown glass that conceals the light source, exemplifying the quiet brilliance of artisanal glass and metalwork.
