Bespoke Lighting Solutions
for Interior Design Projects
Our bespoke solutions are ideal for interior design projects that call for an eye-catching light source with a premium finish. From sleek and minimalist designs to intricate and ornate patterns, cast acrylic realises custom lights that are as striking as they’re functional. The versatility of acrylic allows for the creation of captivating shapes, curves, effects and textures, transforming everyday spaces into extraordinary showcases of artistry.
Our custom acrylic light fittings and fixtures are suitable for a range of areas, including:
- Living rooms and feature walls
- Hospitality, retail and event settings
- Photography studios, where clean, even light is required
Harnessing Acrylic Shape & Form for Bespoke Lighting
Whether it’s fluid curves, geometric precision or avant-garde designs, acrylic shape and form bring a distinct character and visual impact to custom lighting. The interplay of light and form, accentuated by the transparency of acrylic, creates a mesmerising dance of illumination.

Materials, Colours & Finishes for Custom Acrylic Lighting
Choosing the right material and finish means your bespoke acrylic light fittings achieve the perfect look for their setting. With premium acrylic materials ranging from frosted and textured to vibrant and translucent, our potential for crafting truly distinctive lighting fixtures is vast.
We work with different sheets and thicknesses to achieve the right level of light diffusion and finish. Each acrylic sheet is selected to suit the project. These custom materials not only add visual interest but also enhance the play of light, creating a captivating ambience.
| Finish | Surface effect | Ideal for |
| Clear acrylic | Bright, uninterrupted light transmission | Feature lighting, architectural walls |
| Frosted acrylic | Soft, diffused glow | Ambient room lighting |
| Textured acrylic | Tactile surface, dappled light effect | Decorative and hospitality applications |
| Translucent acrylic | Subtle, diffused illumination | Retail and event branding |
