After we've completed a house, it's amazing how many people say "Isn't it great how it all came together!"... as if by accident. This is a very small look into how it all "comes together".

Look what arrived in the mail...

I received these today after 12 weeks of waiting...
and just in time for my 40th Birthday!!!
These are Bocci lights. Each one is individual. 
As soon as they arrived I ran down to our client's house 
and dragged the electrician back to our House.

Lucky he was up for it (they took about 2 hours to put up).
They don't have bulbs in them yet so what you see reflected
in them here is the sunset... doesn't that just make you smile? :)

I think they're pretty special.


Our Moooi lights were lit and
well...look at what happened....
Who needs artwork??

It's a little bit trippy but 
it'll be less so once the dimmer gets programmed into the c-bus.

They are really relaxing to watch 
and they look just as cool when they're turned off.


Speaking of lights, my 'little' boy turned 8 last week.
They grow so fast. 


Much Love,
J

  1. At least by the time you put in on the market I will have won lotto. Let this be our contract - I get first dibs - and you don't get to take the lights with you either.

  9. Thank You Virginia,
    I think they'd be something I'd hide if we ever sold! I'm taking them with me. In 20 years when I'm sailing around the world you shall see them above the kitchen bench in my boat :)
