Chandeliers tend to be extravagant and profligate. They are something that you’d rarely associate with sustainability and energy-savings. Propellor Design based in Vancouver obviously disagrees. Its chandelier designs are not only beautiful but they also tend to rate high on sustainability chart. Their latest design the Century Chandelier was unveiled at last week’s Interior Design Show in Toronto and it met with much appreciation. The design itself is striking with a great blend of traditionalist and modern elements but the sustainability concept finds its due place.

Made of eco-resin or art glass, the panels of this chandelier produce very interesting lighting effects. Of course lighting is done by compact and energy-saving CFL’s. The design company has some very interesting projects to its credit. All of them highlight an underlying motif of sustainability coupled with beautiful designs. Century Chandelier is yet another superb creation by Propellor Design.
