I actually really like the festoon lights! Fairy lights remind me too much of Christmas to have as an all year round feature.

What about this one? It's also chrome and opal glass from the same manufacturer.

I share you concerns with the look of the light. I lived in Cairns for a while and many restaurants etc had high ceilings with lights and fans with a more traditional look. Maybe you could do some internet stalking of hotel websites etc. I'd start with Palm Cove. Good luck.

We are renovating the interior of our common property apartment building. There is not a great deal of natural light, so we are painting the walls Casper White. We need some contemporary lighting that will modernise the building. The lights are on all day and night, so LED is probably preferred? The floors are all the same We are in Bondi, NSW We have two buildings - There are 2 floors in Building One and 5 floors in Building 2, so a total of 7 floors. GROUND FLOOR: FIRST FLOOR:
