On the 22nd June, Lighting house EST launched their new Sydney home in the heart of the Surry Hills design hub.

EST Lighting is about balancing practical lighting tools with thoughtfully selected decorative pieces to arrive at a balanced lighting design for any space — solutions that sit comfortably and work in unison with the environment, whether built or natural.
