Light bulbs that are actually quite cool, promise!

By Olivia Shead โ€ข Leave a Comment

There’s no denying talkingย about light bulbs is boring (I do not recommend it for dinner party banter!) however, Philips’ย three new ranges of LEDย bulbs do warrant some chat. Bear with me.

Philips led bulb
Philips Scene Switch LED bulb

The first is Philips’ Scene Switch LED bulb, which is actually pretty cool.ย The two-in-one design allows homeowners to enjoy the benefits of warm white light and cool daylight in a single light bulb, with just a flick of a regular light switch and no extra wiring required.

For many, bothย white light and cool daylightย are important for different tasks. For example, someone who works from home (which I often do) can kick-start their day with cool daylight, which helps in concentration, and switch to warm white light in the evening when it is time to relax and unwind. Sounds good to me!

Also on offer is theย Philips LED Deco Classic bulb, which comes in eight unique, vintage filament-lookย designs. Not only does it produce beautiful, ambient light itย also delivers energy savings in comparison to current incandescent filament bulbs and hasย an estimated lifetime of up to 15,000 hours.

Lastly, Philips have launched theย next-generation (Gen5) affordable LED bulb rangeย for the home, which isย available in varying sizes. Featuring aย new full-moon design to allowย for a wider angle of light distribution, it producesย ambient lighting that is bright yet comfortable for the eyes. Philips’ LED technology also means the bulb consumes up to 88% less energy than incandescent bulbs and is estimated to last up to 15 years, offering greater energy savings over longer periods of time.

Wallpaper in every single room! What do you recko Wallpaper in every single room!

What do you reckon? You'd think it would be overkill but it isn't because so many of the designs are subtle yet still impactful.

Head over to the blog to see how @grafico_walls transformed this blank canvas Melbourne townhouse with their products, which you've probably seen on The Block over the years. And read how Damian Corney has grown this Melbourne business with wife Adele and a growing team. There's also a look inside the very cool Motley Hotel which has used a whopping 4km of their wallpaper throughout!

You can also watch a video tour with Bec Douros as the house featured on Open Homes Australia over the weekend.

Our friends at @mintdesignau have done it again!

Homeowner Briony Marsh says: Itโ€™s totally changed our home lifestyle now we can sit outside on the lounge in the sun or shade, be in the pool, spa, sauna or cooking pizzas and hanging out with friends. It sounds cliched but it really feels like we are on holiday at home!โ€

Head over to the blog to see the finer details, including a sauna and a seriously good looking copper pizza oven. There's a lot packed into this space!

Located inside a 1912 sandstone villa in Adelaideโ€™s Kensington, this bathroom makeover combines classic and contemporary elements that complement the homeโ€™s original, period features. 

Designed by the homeโ€™s owner @designby_Tahirih, who is a property stylist too, the renovation came sooner than expected after water ingress made the makeover of their only bathroom an urgent necessity!

The whole project cost an impressive $20k, project managed herself.

I remember the chair being such a key purchase whe I remember the chair being such a key purchase when I put together my first ever baby room for Seb. I spent many an evening relaxing on mine while pregnant as I tried to get my head around impending motherhood! Not only are glider recliners like the Chelsea fromย @iltuttoย the most comfortable chairs EVER for those many hours spent feeding and settling, why shouldn't they look this good too, am I right?!

Did you love your nursery chair? Did it look this good?!

There's a LOT of goodness in @sageandclare's lates There's a LOT of goodness in @sageandclare's latest collection Marguerite but the Aida rug has to be my personal fave.

Handcrafted from wool, it features a rustic check design with a rainbow of nostalgic colour. Embroidered edge stitching furthers its handcrafted feel. 

โ€œThis is pure colour joy bundled up in a hard-wearing and happy rug that will lift any room with ease," says creative director Phoebe Bell.
