Plateau Project - Featured in Vogue Living
Ask any photographer the secret to their craft and they’ll answer with ‘light’. This sentiment couldn’t be truer for celebrated fashion photographer Georges Antoni, especially when it came to searching for a family home with his wife Phoebe.” - Vogue Living
The Plateau Project is an impeccably renovated 1960s postmodernist Australian bungalow. Perched above an ancient forest of thousand-year-old Angophora trees with views over Pittwater, this home embodies the natural tones and materiality of the land that surrounds it.
A simple internal palate of microcement and raw concrete draw warmth and reflect light. A wandering wall greets you as you enter, leading quietly around a deep curve, featuring the soft glow of full moon light with our Eclipse wall sconce cast in pure Australian Porcelain. The light sits ajar from the wall, creating a halo of warm and ambient light emanating in all directions.
The house plays with shape and volume. Curves and lines, confinement and expanse collaborate to create a bold statement of opposites whilst creating cohesion and fluidity at the same time.
Interior stylist and close friend Lara Hutton, who acted as a guide for the palette of this home, can testify to Antoni’s predilection with luminescence. “It’s so much about him—everything’s about light, how it translates in space and how it changes throughout the day.”
When it came to embracing light, we were honoured to collaborate closely with Georges and his family as they selected lighting to compliment each space - we especially love the placement of our Orb Pendants above the family dining table. Everything feels intentional and inviting – the perfect backdrop to rest, play and gather.

“An Australian photographer’s Sydney family home that's a love letter to light. Ask any photographer the secret to their craft and they’ll answer with ‘light’. This sentiment couldn’t be truer for celebrated fashion photographer Georges Antoni, especially when it came to searching for a family home with his wife Phoebe.” - Vogue Living
The light cast from the Orb Pendant is warm & ambient with some directional light emitting from the hand-carved opening. Hand making the Orb lights in pure, white Australian Porcelain creates a stunning celestial effect through the translucent body of the piece.
Pieces cast in white have the most translucency; the colour they emit will differ with the tone and strength of the lamp chosen. Large orbs tend to have slightly less translucency than the small and medium due to the distance of the light source to the shade. As a family they will have variance in translucency, but work beautifully together. Pieces cast in our coloured porcelain will be opaque with directional light shining through the opening. Please see the colour swatch image for more details.
The Orb Pendants come in three sizes and are available in the full range of Studio Enti colours.
