💦✨ Lighting, water, and a little bit of magic.

The newly transformed Leigh Square Fountain in Port Coquitlam has quickly become a vibrant gathering place, and after dark, it really comes to life. 🌈

At the centre of the renewed plaza is a Bellagio-inspired programmable fountain, featuring three interlocking rings where water jets dance through choreographed sequences of movement, music, and colour.

To bring the fountain to life at night, 36 Acclaim Lighting Aqua Drums were integrated directly into the plaza surface. Fully submersible and walk-over rated, these RGBW fixtures were built for the demands of a public, water-forward environment while allowing each fountain sequence to be transformed with vibrant colour and crisp white light. 💡💦

The lighting doesn't compete with the water, it works with it. As the jets rise, fall, and move through each performance, the illumination adds another layer to the experience, making the fountain visible and engaging from across the square.

With individually controllable sections and scheduled shows synchronized to music and lighting, Leigh Square has become more than a public plaza, it’s a place to gather, linger, and experience something a little different each time you visit. 🎶✨

✨ What if the next wave of West Coast lighting isn’t glass at all?

For years, sculptural glass pendants have defined luxury coastal interiors — but a new material conversation is beginning to take shape. One rooted in warmth, craftsmanship, texture, and a deeper connection to nature. 🌊🌲

In our latest feature, The Next Wave in West Coast Lighting: Where Wood Meets Water, we explore how wooden luminaires are emerging as a compelling new direction for West Coast interiors — and why designers are paying attention.

Inside, we explore:
🔹 Why materiality has always been central to West Coast Modern design
🔹 How wood brings warmth, softness, and authenticity into contemporary interiors
🔹 The stunning Aurora Collection from Poémia — sculptural wooden luminaires inspired by wind, water, and the coastline ✨
🔹 Why thoughtful, artisan-crafted lighting is resonating in a world craving more intentional design

💡 More than a trend piece, this is a conversation about craftsmanship, atmosphere, and designing spaces that feel connected to their environment and the people inside them.

If you love architecture, interiors, lighting, or material-driven design — this one’s worth the read.

✨ Lighting a landmark that already feels like sculpture.

Rising above False Creek, Vancouver House has become one of the most recognizable residential towers in the world — a bold architectural statement shaped by movement, form, and perspective. Designed by Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG), the building pushes the boundaries of what a residential tower can be, and the lighting needed to support that same level of innovation.

Inside the lobby, Artemide’s iconic Alphabet of Light becomes an experience in itself. Combining both graphic and typographic configurations, the system creates glowing architectural forms that feel equal parts art installation and illumination. Suspended within the entryway and visible through the expansive glazing, the fixture transforms the arrival experience into something immersive and unforgettable.

Beyond the feature lighting, a carefully curated mix of architectural luminaires from our brands help shape the atmosphere throughout the project — balancing visual comfort, precision, and modern minimalism.

Lighting Inspo ✨ Bold Geometry

Geometry has always been a fundamental part of design. In lighting, it becomes an opportunity to create rhythm, structure, and visual interest while delivering exceptional performance.

From circles and curves to strong linear forms, geometric fixtures have a unique ability to command attention and influence how a space is experienced. They introduce a sense of order, movement, and creativity that extends beyond illumination alone.

In this edition of Lighting Inspo, we're highlighting fixtures that embrace shape as a defining design element—proving that lighting can be both highly functional and visually unforgettable.

Great lighting shouldn't force a compromise.

It needs to perform technically, delivering the right output, distribution, and control, while still feeling considered within the architecture and design language of the space.

Our curated line card brings both sides together, offering fixtures that meet performance requirements without sacrificing aesthetic intent.

The result is lighting that works hard, and looks like it belongs.
