Project: Mondrian, Gold Coast
Photography by Alicia Taylor
Perched on the water's edge at Burleigh Beach, Mondrian's 24 storeys are home to easygoing hotel suites and restaurants, welcoming event spaces, and a wellness centre and spa.
To make the grand beachside destination feel like an effortless step off the sand, Alexander &CO. visualised the perfect balance of texture and warmth. On the ground floor, the restaurant and lobby bar, LiTO, marries rattan and timber with handmade tiles and exposed brickwork. A warm, considered lighting scheme was needed to carry the playful spirit of the seaside into Euro-inspired evenings — enter Studio Enti's Eclipse and Eos lights.

The Eos wall lights bring a sculptural column form to LiTO's walls, With the ability to light both upward and downward, the end result is a space washed in a layered, ambient radiance. In a setting like LiTO, where the design brief called for texture and tactility at every turn, the Eos earns its place not just as a light source but as an architectural detail in its own right. The pieces were selected to complement the restaurant's warm, natural palette and sit quietly within the space while still commanding attention.
Alongside the Eos, the Eclipse sconces bring a softer, more meditative quality to the room. Inspired by the glow of a full moon, each circular porcelain sconce sits slightly ajar from the wall, creating a halo of warm light that radiates in all directions. Grouped together, they play with shadow and light in a way that shifts subtly through the course of an evening, from the brightness of lunch service to the intimate warmth of a late dinner.
In a hospitality setting, where lighting must do the heavy lifting of setting mood and pace, these pieces were hand-picked to offer something rare: lighting that are as considered and crafted as the food and interiors around it. Together, the Eos and Eclipse speak to the heart of what Studio Enti does best, bringing the beauty of handmade into spaces where people gather, linger, and feel at ease.
Evoke the soft glow of full moon light with ECLIPSE, a circular 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.
Group three or more together to play with shadows and light or chose just one to create the perfect ambience in living spaces, hallways, bedrooms and architectural spaces.
Eclipse wall sconces are available in three sizes and can be cast in all shades in the Studio Enti range. Pieces cast in white have a stunning translucency, making the entire piece glow as well as casting light on the wall behind. In addition to white, wisp and cloud will offer hints of translucency with other colourways creating an opaque sconce with directional light.
Free shipping on orders over $1,000 within Australia ($2,000 for WA & NT).
The EOS is a column light offering upward and downward radiance - perfect for casting ambience over a larger space - be it hallways, bathrooms or architectural enclaves.
Studio Enti Lights are handmade porcelain pieces designed to enhance a diverse range of interior spaces. From small areas requiring a lighting detail to larger statement arrangements, the three sizes can be installed individually or grouped together.
These wall lights have a classic form and are available in the full range of Studio Enti colours.
Due to the nature of the porcelain, pieces cast in white will offer a warm, ambient translucency. Both Wisp and Cloud pieces have semi-translucent qualities which can be played upon with the strength/colour of the lamp used.
