PRECISION-ENGINEERED AND CUSTOM-MANUFACTURED LIGHTING SOLUTIONS FOR NAUTILUS APARTMENTS
RESIDENTIAL & BUILD-TO-RENT
PROBLEM
Designers had a vision for a unique product that couldn’t be sourced locally.
The apartment designer envisioned a sleek kitchen light that illuminated the workspace effectively. It also needed to fit in with the modern aesthetic and come in a large quantity. Off-the-shelf products lacked the
right combination of style, performance, and scale. The challenge was finding a design that met both the functional lighting needs and the visual expectations of the project.

CASE STUDY
Lighting in kitchens, especially open kitchens, can become quite challenging. You need to optimise the task lighting associated with cooking and cleaning up. But also take into consideration the look and feel of the external environment.
KEY CONSIDERATIONS FOR LIGHTING THE KITCHENS, IN OPEN PLAN SPACES, WITHIN THE NEW BUILDING
QUANTITY OF PRODUCT REQUIRED Each apartment needed the same kitchen fixtures, totalling hundreds of fittings.
NO OFF-THE- SHELF OPTION WAS RIGHT A standard luminaire didn’t match the design or the lighting performance needed.
AUSTRALIAN DESIGN AND DELIVERED The developers preferred to work with local designers to create the bespoke luminaires.
TASK LIGHTING IS ESSENTIAL IN ACTIVITY Kitchen lighting must focus on tasks like food prep and cleaning.
STYLE MATTERS IN LUXURY SPACES Buyers look for matching finishes and seamless fittings in new builds.
POOR LIGHTING AFFECTS SAFETY
Poor kitchen lighting increases the risk of accidents.

Industralight worked closely with the contractor to create a new light fitting from scratch. We made 3D drawings, technical plans, and a few test versions to get the design just right. The final light was sleek, practical, and matched the high-end kitchen finishes. It was also easy to install, which helped the builder stay on track. And everything was made to order so it fit the space and style perfectly.
Technical drawings and 3D modelling
Samples were made and tested A few rounds of samples were manufactured, tested and delivered to the client. They were requested to ensure the luminaire would suit the space and adhere to specifications. From factory to final, the linear product was made with attention to detail and a critical eye. Delivery of over 100 fittings After age-testing and standards sign-off, the approved G-Line fittings were manufactured and delivered. The contractor on the projects rolled out the installation.
Industralight designers took inspiration from early discussions around a linear suspended luminaire. They developed technical drawings and 3D CAD visualisations with a tapered design. After edits, the design changed to straight open ends to maximise illumination. The streamlined casing directed light down for best task lighting over the kitchen bench.
