The iGadi House embodies all of this and so much more: a 19th century property turned exclusive hotel in the historic centre of the South African capital.
This Victorian-style residence, punctuated by vibrant splashes of colour, exudes an extraordinary charm thanks to its neutral accents and natural wood. The spaces are further adorned by a selection of Creative-Cables lamps which add even more harmony and balance.
The collection of Made in Italy lamps and illumination systems was selected by Cecile Bouquillion, owner of the hotel, to bring light to the ten rooms (ranging in size from intimate to spacious), cosy and welcoming common areas and heavenly outdoor spaces.
The entrance is perfected by tailor-made lighting solutions. The Fermaluce lamps at the reception desk and above the counter are simple yet distinctive, whilst the suspension lamp in the middle of the room almost appears to be floating to highlight the feather sculpture created by talented visual artist Désirée Botterill. The suspended ceiling roses hanging above the table also seem to complement the other art pieces; however the real stars of the show are the cyan blue fabric cable and the P-Light lamp holders, which blend perfectly with the wall decor and seating.
The relaxation room is bathed in intense shades of blue and illuminated by a simple suspension lamp completed with a homemade lampshade. The suspension lamp was installed beneath the original vintage beams using the Tubes System, which combines the charm of fabric linings with the practicality of an external wall installation. The plug-in lamp next to the sofa was paired with a blue cable that blends in with the wall, allowing the light bulb to shine.
The Spostaluce lamps (set up thanks to the skilful use of decentralisers) and the half-sphere silver light bulbs lead the way to the rooms on the upper floor, whilst a beautiful three-fall Rose-one in petrol blue lights up the staircase with its unique emerald, brass and ultraviolet lamp holders and colourful lampshades.
Let’s take a sneak peek into the bedrooms, where Creative-Cables contributed with customised solutions to showcase every corner of the room.
Unique and practical table lamps with metal lampshades, adaptable suspensions and a perfect use of Spostaluce to bring light wherever you need it.
Essential and elegant.
Thanks to their protection degree, Creative-Cables lamps are the perfect addition to bathrooms and outdoor spaces alike. EIVA lamps were installed at the heart of every room’s private bathroom, whilst esse14 lamps were placed above the mirror because of their IP44 rating guaranteed by the 50 cm tubular light bulb.
The Creative-Cables EIVA system also covers all outdoor spaces thanks to its IP65 protection degree which makes all lamps and components resistant to rain and bad weather. The Fermaluce and different lampshades embellish the entrances and private gardens.
