A Sydney studio working from first concept to commissioning — across lighting, electrical & smart control. Powered by AI, shaped by creativity and grounded in technical expertise.
Every project begins as a hand-drawn lighting study — fixtures, colour temperatures and beam angles resolved before anything is built. Drag to reveal the thinking behind the render.
A selection of delivered and in-progress work across Greater Sydney — plus Melbourne and international projects.
We are a design studio — not an installation crew. From first concept to engineering certification.
Concept, AGI32 / DIALux calculations, luminaire specification, custom fixtures, control & mock-ups.
Power & data layouts, maximum demand, switchboard design, emergency & AV coordination.
Integrated control via wall panels, switches and mobile apps. Scenes & automation programming.
Professional renders & walkthroughs, BIM / Revit modelling, project & cost management.
Welcome to SL Design Consultant, an independent lighting and electrical engineering consultancy delivering practical, technically robust and visually considered design solutions.
Plain-English guidance for owners, and notes from the studio. Updated weekly.
Illuminance targets, cable sizing and circuit protection - the calculations that sit under a lighting scheme, worked to AS/NZS.
AI image models can render a convincing lighting scene, but they carry no illuminance, no glare rating and no maintenance factor. Where AI helps in lighting design, and where the calculation has to take over.
Where the lighting design consultant's work starts and the electrician's ends — the six deliverables of a lighting engagement, the boundary with interior design, and when a project genuinely needs a consultant.
Every project starts with a conversation and a sketch. Tell us about your space — we'll show you what light can do.
