The challenge Lighting an apartment complex to match a rich, layered Moroccan-inspired design

Pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus et malesuada fames ac turpis egestas. We manufactured, configured and delivered the complete lighting package to the Waterloo site. The process started with samples. Once those were approved, we moved to the display units for the show apartments. And following that, the Superlight team jumped into full production for the building. Our approach A hands-on process from first samples through to custom manufacturing and delivery

Throughout the kitchens, RGB Superstrip ribbon was used above benches and along kickboards. The skirting profile gave each run a neat, low-profile housing that sits flush with the joinery. Slimline recessed downlights provide general lighting across living spaces. And the Ovoid wall fixture was refinished to suit the look and feel of the apartments.

We also supplied a range of exterior products to illuminate gardens, the pool and balconies. The SL2251 surface-mount downlight was chosen for its clean profile and weatherproof rating. Finished in white, it blends into the ceiling above the balconies. Designed for high-end applications, the SL6192 up-and- down cube fittings suited the space. These wall-mounted products were installed on select balconies and in common spaces. The communal pool was fitted with pool luminaires built for permanent underwater use. Surrounding the pool, Pluto 7 uplights cast a warm glow across the courtyard gardens. And the MXV-2 architectural floodlight covered broader exterior illumination.

Casba started life as a warehouse precinct on Danks Street, Waterloo. From 2010, the site was reimagined as a mixed- use destination. Developed by Billard Leece Partnership and SJB Architects, with the interiors by BKH Studio, it would house 65 residential apartments. A mix of one, two and three-bedroom homes sat alongside 3,000 m² of ground-level retail and hospitality. The complex draws on influences from Southern Spanish and North African cultures. Recycled brick, handcrafted imported rattan furniture, and natural stone floors set the

tone. Bronzed metal and rich timbers layered on top. The lighting had to match that ambition without competing with it. The challenge was scale and variety. Apartment lighting was required across every area of the building. Kitchens, living rooms, hallways, balconies and bedrooms all had different requirements. As well as the communal courtyard with the reflecting pool. Balcony and pool fittings had to be weatherproof. Standard lighting needed to be streamlined and blend into the space. However, sculptural fixtures needed to stand out and suit the Moroccan-inspired aesthetic.

The results From the first sample to the last fitting, a process built on communication and craftsmanship

Overall, the living and retail complex feels cohesive and inspired for living. Throughout the apartments, Superlight luminaires blend in with the design of the building. Residents move through an even spread of light across every room. Outside, the apartment lighting scheme transforms the shared spaces after dark. The pool glows clearly from below. The courtyard palms are lit from the ground up, giving the precinct the warmth of a resort. Residents benefit from a communal environment that genuinely invites them outdoors. That contributes directly to the sense of community that makes Casba feel

full of life. It is a strong example of what an experienced approach can deliver. Casba went on to win four major industry awards. • The Australian Institute of Architects • The Urban Development Institute of Australia • The World Architecture Festival all recognised the project • Best completed mixed-use building at the 2015 WAF awards • The UDIA President’s Award named it the best development in NSW that year
