MY LIGHTING DESIGNS ARE INSPIRED BY MY DEEP IMMERSION IN NEW ZEALAND’S NATURAL ENVIRONMENT.

 ASB BANK


2022

The new fit-out of ASB branches around the country included our Sensory pendant - The brief was to create a space of comfort, with soft warm light cast upon the cosy interior fit out.

James Russ, along with Warren and Mahoney worked together to create the perfect light output and shape to compliment the new ASB spaces.

With fit out’s happening in most ASB branches, the design needed to be durable, stand the test of time and provide the light output to put customers at ease. Sensory encorporates a sense of softness, from the pillowy white jacket, to the soft warm glow emanating from slow curves and loops.

A brief well met and one for the books.

Materials used: Stainless steel
Light Source: Warm white LED technology

Just wanted to pass on my thanks and awesome feedback in relation to the Sensory Light installations we now have in 3 of our ASB Advice Centres (Branches) Nothing but fantastic feedback for the spaces overall and the light just really anchors these spatially for us.
