When Danish designer Nadia Olive Schnack was renovating a historic home in central Copenhagen, she selected multiple SkLO light fixtures for key areas of the project.

The home had a grand central staircase in the entry. High ceilings, large windows, curving lines, and coffered ceilings were all opportunities for the renowned designer to demonstrate her skill at using color in interiors. For the showcase two-story stairway, she chose a SkLO Drape Circle 28 Chandelier.

She carefully composed the fixture so that the lit pendants of the chandelier are staggered evenly vertically, and she arranged the rings of the chandelier in a similar way, giving the fixture a custom rhythm and cadence to pair gracefully with the stairs.

The Drape Circle 28 Chandelier has the presence to match the grandeur of the space while still being airy and ethereal so as not to overpower the textures and layers of detail. Nadia also chose the chandelier for its ability to be easily customized — she wanted the chandelier to light the entire space, both the upper and lower floors and the stairway that connects them.

A palette of white dipped glass, dark oxidized hardware, and black fabric-wrapped electrical cord works with the other high-contrast elements of the color palette of the space.

At the foot of the stairs on the first level of the home’s entry, Nadia chose a Hold 18 Sconce to provide feature lighting at a more intimate scale. Centered on the paneled wall, the sconce shares its palette with the chandelier — white glass, dark oxidized hardware, and black fabric-wrapped electrical cord. The sculptural presence of the signature glass Hold diffuser adds a serene mood.

For the main bathroom of the home, Nadia selected two SkLO Stem 2X Sconces. The sconces are positioned above a classic double console sink with chrome hardware and on either side of a prominent circular mirror. Polished stone floor tiles and a highly figured white tiled wainscot contrast with the oxblood red walls and ceiling. A large storage cabinet to the right of the sink is painted a cleverly contrasting lavender.

The sconces’ palette of white dipped glass diffusers and brushed brass hardware works perfectly as another color in the room, and their timeless design allows them to pair effortlessly with a vintage glass and brass ceiling fixture.
