Chamfer. Designed to Layer Timber and Light
When we settle in for the evening, the downlights stay off and we reach for the lights that wash the walls and ceilings. Chamfer was designed for exactly that. Three fine layers of timber sit in front of the light source and work like louvres, so the glare stays hidden and the light spreads evenly across the wall.
Ballast. A Balancing Act
Every South Drawn piece starts with a question about how form and function sit together. Ballast, our first candle collection, began somewhere more personal: as
Cloak. Considered for Every Space.
South Drawn’s new Cloak sconce pairs hand-formed artisan glass with a lighting system built to belong anywhere. Design Director Luke Mills on what it took to get there.
Husk. Where Refinement Meets Responsibility
With Husk, we set out to create a lighting collection defined by clarity, restraint and longevity. Not by trend or ornament, but by the strength of its materials and the integrity of its design.
Illuminating Marmont: A Bespoke Lighting Collaboration
Situated in the heart of Melbourne with direct access to the South Yarra Riverwalk, Marmont is more than just a restaurant—it’s a study in considered design. A space where materiality, mood, and meticulous attention to detail converge to create an experience that evolves from day to night.
The Evolution of Form
The Form Collection originated from the expansion of our beloved Tile Collection. The defining features of Form are its use of shape and the introduction of a glaze finish over the clay surface.
Point Five. Reimagining Recycled Glass
The Point Five wall sconce started a little differently to most of our designs. We had around 200 kilos of glass offcuts left over from other pieces, sitting with our maker, and set ourselves the challenge of turning them into something sculptural. What emerged is a reminder that constraints can often lead somewhere more interesting.
A special release from South Drawn
South Drawn finds its edge in exploring uncharted territory, our inspiration is sought off the beaten track, and our adventurous sense of discovery follows us all the way through the design process.
Material Exploration
Material exploration is often the starting point for many of our pieces. Natural textures influenced by changing conditions and the maturing process provide an abundant source of design inspiration.
