More about Jane Purdue Design Ltd.

I have always had an interest in art and architecture, and when I started working at Concept lighting in Auckland I gained experience as a lighting designer, with Richard Ponting teaching me the basics of the practice.

I was one of the youngest winners when I won two Illumination Engineering Society of NZ lighting awards, and on the strength of the reference I received from these award winning projects I was hired by a boutique company called Lightplan in London. It's principal was lighting designer John Roberts who specialized in lighting for luxury homes and yachts, and specialist projects – many of them offshore.

Working closely with John taught me to appreciate lighting design as an art. Lightplan had just been commissioned to design the lighting for Elton John’s country estate, which provided an exciting artistic challenge and invaluable experience in the profession for me. I worked for two years on this project and learnt how to work with a large construction team while also dealing with onsite issues as they arose.

In 1992 I returned to New Zealand and established Jane Purdue Lighting Design.

I chose to work independently because I did not want to be committed to using any particular product which would reduce my design options.

I live and work in Lyttelton; and from my home office I have worked on projects all over the country specialising in residential, landscape and hospitality designs. Lighting design must be functional; but I believe that good lighting design should also subtly embrace and enhance the architecture.

I can help you create a lighting design that is as individual as you are.

As every project is unique I provide a free quotation for my fees before commencing, that way you know where you stand right from the beginning. Most projects are quoted to completion of second revisions, however some clients prefer to utilise my time at an hourly rate depending on the documentation/drawing work required.

Please contact me and we can talk through the most appropriate way to meet your requirements.
