Christmas Lights Win Design Award
State Buildings
The Australian Lighting Design Awards has recognized State Buildings' Christmas light installation with the Award for Design Excellence, celebrating both the artistic vision and technical innovation of their holiday display.
Illuminating Heritage
The installation featured carefully designed lighting that enhanced rather than overwhelmed the heritage architecture, using energy-efficient LED technology and custom-designed fixtures. The display told the story of Western Australian Christmas traditions through light, incorporating native flora motifs and subtle color palettes that complemented the historic buildings.
The installation attracted over 50,000 visitors during the holiday season, becoming a beloved Perth tradition and demonstrating how thoughtful lighting design can activate heritage spaces.
