For over 40 years, KLIK Systems has delivered high quality light fittings to Australian designers spanning the health care, commercial office, education, transport interchange, retail and laboratory sectors.
However, what you may not know is that KLIK Systems has also left its mark on many significant landmarks and structures all over the world.
The KLIK LEDpod is one such globetrotting solution, providing a source of glare-free lighting to pathways, stairs, bridges and other public spaces with structural steel elements. The patented LEDpod is an easily mounted light source for cylindrical, curved and square handrails, with a superior asymmetric throw that is designed to distribute the light to where it is needed without any tilting of the fitting.
The light weight and petite size of the LEDpod makes the logistics of getting this unique product around the world very simple. The patented design also makes installation incredibly easy; a single page step-by-step picture installation guide is all that is needed regardless of the language spoken. Suitable for both internal and external installations, the LEDpod has been tested to very high and extremely low temperatures, making it suitable for almost any location – from Dubai’s subtropical desert climate to the freezing winters of Calgary, Canada.
If you are in the United States, you may come across the KLIK LEDpod at the One World Trade Centre in New York, the Smithsonian Museum and Downtown Chicago, or if you are lucky enough to get to Colorado and see the sights in Glenwood Springs or visit the Red Rocks Amphitheatre.
In New Zealand, avid cyclists will notice KLIK lighting solutions on cycleways, providing a clearly lit path at night. On the other side of the globe, LEDpods have been used for pedestrian lighting on The Lady Desart Pedestrian Bridge in Kilkenny Ireland, and in Edmonton, Alberta in Canada braving -40° temperatures on the Walterdale Bridge. KLIK has also supplied around 20,000 custom LEDpods to the Riyadh Metro, a rapid transit system in Saudi Arabia’s capital city.
Beyond the innovative LEDpod, KLIK Systems also offer the KLIK LEDpod XL, which provides designers with a fixture that can be installed on flat and curved structural elements, and the MISTIK, a robust lighting box that can be mounted on balustrades, stanchions, facades, architectural steel and landscaping elements. Available square or cylindrical housing as well as a flat or radius mounting plate, MISTIK provides exceptional asymmetric light and incorporates the KLIK LEDpod XL28F as the light engine.
The KLIK LEDpod, LEDpod XL, and MISTIK deliver aesthetically pleasing, discreet lighting outcomes for a wide range of spaces and purposes. KLIK’s ability to be able to deliver these solutions worldwide, not to mention over 1,000’s of projects supplied with LEDpod in Australia demonstrates the quality of the product, the capability of the company and the cost-effectiveness of their unique solutions.

To honour Chef James Won’s appointment as Gaggenau’s first Malaysian Culinary Partner, we asked the gastronomic luminaire about parallels between Gaggenau’s ethos and his own practice, his multidimensional vision of Modern Malaysian – and how his early experiences of KFC’s accessible, bold flavours influenced his concept of fine dining.
Gaggenau’s understated appliance fuses a carefully calibrated aesthetic of deliberate subtraction with an intuitive dynamism of culinary fluidity, unveiling a delightfully unrestricted spectrum of high-performing creativity.
In design, the concept of absence is particularly powerful – it’s the abundant potential of deliberate non-presence that amplifies the impact of what is. And it is this realm of sophisticated subtraction that Gaggenau’s Dishwasher 400 Series so generously – and quietly – occupies.
Within the intimate confines of compact living, where space is at a premium, efficiency is critical and dining out often trumps home cooking, Gaggenau’s 400 Series Culinary Drawer proves that limited space can, in fact, unlock unlimited culinary possibilities.
