Behind the Design: Setting the Mood with Amphis

Step into a home where every room is bathed in just the right light – warm glows that invite you in, crisp beams that sharpen focus, and sculptural fittings that double as works of art.

This isn’t magic, but the impact of lighting designed with intention and care.

That’s why with our trusted supplier Amphis, who beautifully curate pieces that elevate both form and function. Amphis combines passion with precision, designing products that enhance the overall Boutique Homes offering, reinforcing our commitment to homes defined by design excellence.

Lighting, after all, is more than a finishing touch – it’s a design decision that shapes how a home feels and functions. Here’s how to approach it with confidence.

Why lighting matters

Lighting is one of the most powerful design tools in a home. It can completely alter the way a space feels, whether that’s sparking conversation in a dining space, like the Orion pendant in the Barcelona 32 at Banksia Estate, creating intimacy in a living room, or spotlighting beautiful finishes in a designer kitchen.

“Lighting should enhance the architecture and elevate interiors, not fight against them,” says Rebecca Barker, Product Manager at Amphis. “When it’s well thought out, it supports wellbeing, comfort and adds lasting value to the home.”

Introducing Amphis’ new range

To expand their classic and timeless designs, Amphis lighting have curated a new collection, Modera, inspired by mid-century design, celebrated for its harmony of form, function and enduring style, and increasingly embraced in today’s homes.

The new range features four distinct families: UFOs, Eclipses, Columns and Puddles. Each has its own identity yet remains cohesive as part of a modern collection. With exceptional glasswork and precise LED integration, every piece strikes a balance between beauty and performance.

Tips for choosing lighting at home

When selecting lighting, the first question to ask is: how do you want the space to feel? Mood, atmosphere and proportion are key. Layering is also essential – combining ambient, task and accent lighting creates depth and usability for all times of the day.

Quality matters too; rather than flooding a room with downlights, consider a curated approach with fittings placed only where needed. And then there’s temperature, warmer light throughout the home generally offers a more inviting and comfortable atmosphere.

“Trends will come and go, but the best results happen when clients choose pieces that reflect their personality and lifestyle.” notes Rebecca.

Guided by experts

Navigating lighting options can feel overwhelming, but with working closely with Amphis, clients are supported every step of the way.

We curate selections based on style, architecture and lifestyle, ensuring every choice feels authentic to both the home and the people living within it.

This experience can be explored first-hand at the Abode Inspiration Studio in Geelong or Docklands, where the Amphis lighting range is on display and experts are on hand to guide you through lighting solutions that will shape the look, feel and character of your home.
