PALERILL · SELECTED PROJECTS

Project Cases

Selected residential, hospitality and commercial lighting projects delivered with our design and trade partners. Each case documents a real space: the brief, the layers of light, and the finished result.

PRIVATE RESIDENCE · INSTALLATION

A Tiered Crystal Cascade, Installed On Site

Transparent crystal reads as light and almost weightless in daylight, then gains a warmer, deeper glow once lit — present in the room without ever feeling heavy.

What makes a chandelier like this work is not the number of tiers but proportion: overall dimensions against the room, the drop above the furniture below, and the relationship between the fixture and the double-height volume around it. Every one of those was set on site.

One continuous tier-by-tier assembly, hoisted and levelled, then tuned in place until the crystals fell exactly as drawn.

HOSPITALITY · FINE DINING

Sculpted Light for a Fine-Dining Room

Conventional pendant lighting was set aside here. A continuous cove of linear light follows the ceiling's organic curves, so illumination travels along the architecture instead of falling from a fixture — the rough stone walls and vaulted ceiling becoming a canvas of shadow and glow.

The light itself is hidden: recessed into ceiling grooves and wall joints, released only where it matters. Each table receives a soft pool of light that reveals linen and porcelain, while circulation areas stay at low luminance so a sense of privacy holds. Warm orange seating lifts the coolness of dark stone.

The result is not a brighter restaurant, but a slower one. Guests settle in, conversation quietens, and a meal becomes an occasion.

PRIVATE RESIDENCE · LIGHTING SCHEME

The Right Lighting Makes Home Feel Calm

This residence has been taking shape over recent months. More than the number of fixtures installed, what mattered was whether the light truly serves everyday life.

The hardest part of residential lighting is not making a room bright — it is knowing when to hold back. No pointless fittings, no distracting patches of light on walls, no undue emphasis on the fixtures themselves. Base lighting, wall wash and accent are layered and colour-tuned to each room's materials, so every space has light exactly where it is needed.

Good lighting design is not about noticing lots of lights at first glance. It is about feeling comfortable, natural and at ease once you live in the space — and continuing to appreciate it over time.

PRIVATE RESIDENCE · CEILING FIXTURE

A Flush Ovoid for a Coffered Ceiling

A large, shallow ovoid of textured glass, mounted close inside an existing coffered ceiling. The brief was a fixture with real presence that would not lower the ceiling line or fight the panelling.

Because the glass is lit from within and the profile stays close to the plasterwork, the piece reads as part of the ceiling rather than an object hanging beneath it. The warm band of the frame is left visible, so the fitting still has a crafted edge in daylight.

Shown here at the end of installation, shortly before the room is handed over.

PRIVATE RESIDENCE · KITCHEN

A Line of Crystal Over the Island

An art light does not belong only in the living room. This kitchen is finished in dark timber veneer and grey stone; with base lighting alone, the space read as heavy and short of focal points.

The answer was a long rectangular crystal fixture, its length set to echo the island below. The open crystal structure keeps the visual mass of the piece without lowering the perceived ceiling height, and once lit, the warm light softens the hard edges of the dark cabinetry and stone.

A good art light is not one that looks beautiful on its own. It is one where size, material, drop height and spatial proportion all land right.

Custom crystal chandeliers for hotels, villas and public interiors

PALERILL makes large crystal chandeliers to order: oversized tiered pieces for double-height entrances, long stairwell drops, single centrepieces for a hotel lobby, and repeated fixture lines matched across a floor plate. Every piece is built to the diameter, drop and finished weight the space needs — the drawing comes first, the chandelier second.

Nothing here is a fixed catalogue size. A custom crystal chandelier is quoted from the room: the opening it hangs in, the height it has to fall through, the structure above it, and the way the room is lit in the evening.

What we build

  • Large crystal chandeliers — tiered, round, linear and cascading forms in K9 crystal, art glass and brass, from one metre to several metres across.
  • Oversized chandeliers for double-height voids — entrance halls, atriums and stairwells where the fixture has to read from the ground floor and from the gallery above.
  • Hotel lobby centrepieces — a single statement fixture, or a matched family of pendants, sconces and chandeliers across public areas, made to order as one line.
  • Repeated project lines — the same fixture made in batches for guest corridors, restaurants and meeting floors, so every unit matches in crystal grade, metal finish and light colour.
  • Replacement and enlargement — a fixture scaled up for a taller space, or a crystal section rebuilt to match an existing installation.

Ready-made pieces sit in the custom chandeliers collection, and the largest formats are grouped in oversized chandeliers and crystal chandeliers.

How a project runs

  1. Brief. Room type, ceiling height, the opening or table the fixture serves, the destination country and the date the space opens.
  2. Scale and structure. Diameter from the opening; drop from head clearance and the sightline; the fixing point and the finished weight your contractor has to carry.
  3. Drawing and quotation. A dimensioned elevation for approval, with the delivered price against it — not a range.
  4. Sample and approval. Crystal grade and metal finish confirmed before production starts, with photographic progress through the build.
  5. Crating and delivery. Staged to the fit-out programme, with installation guidance for your own contractor and spare components held afterwards.

The full commissioning route, including what each stage costs and how long it takes, is set out on the customization process page.

Where these fixtures go

  • Hotel lobbies, lobby lounges and arrival corridors
  • Restaurants, private dining rooms and ballrooms
  • Villa entrance halls and double-height living rooms
  • Stairwells, galleries and mezzanine voids
  • Retail flagships, showrooms and clubhouses

Room-by-room starting points: foyer chandeliers, staircase chandeliers, high ceiling chandeliers and hotel lobby chandeliers.

What we need from you to quote

Six things, and a quotation can be issued: room type, ceiling height, the width of the space the fixture hangs in, the drop you want, the destination country, and the date the room is due to open. A section drawing or a photograph of the ceiling is enough to start — we will ask for the rest.

Trade terms for studios, architects and procurement teams are on the designer & trade programme page, and the printed collections are on the product catalogs page.

About PALERILL

PALERILL is a made-to-order lighting house working in crystal, glass and solid metal. We produce for private clients and for project teams, and we publish our dimensions rather than hiding them: diameter, drop, canopy size, bulb type and finished weight are all confirmed at quotation, against the specific piece being built.
