    Planning ahead for bright ideas

    At Nigel Tyas Ironwork, we work with architects and design consultants on a wide range of stunning new build and renovation projects. We know that natural light and electrical lighting are not add-ons or after-thoughts but integral to their designs for structure and space.

    From concept to completion

    Getting the fixtures right can be key to the look and feel of a property. Whether you need accent lighting to highlight an architectural feature; ambient lighting to influence the mood and purpose of a room; or task lighting to illuminate a work surface or an area of activity. We design and make characterful lights which look good and do the job.

    Spectacular to subliminal

    Some of our lights are spectacular. For architects who want a light to be a statement feature of the space we can design and make chandeliers and pendant lights on any scale. Good lighting design can also be subtle and subliminal, chosen to complement the whole room in appearance and provide lighting which is an essential, ethereal part of the scheme.

    Lighting designs that flow through a property

    When lighting needs to flow through a property and work across ceilings, walls, spots and lamps, we have design ranges and complementary products to achieve that. See our extensive catalogue online. I don’t forget, we sell wrought iron curtain poles too.

    Lights for heritage properties and listed buildings

    Nigel Tyas’ blacksmiths use traditional metalworking techniques and materials to design and produce lighting which is sympathetic to heritage interiors, easy to install, made to last and compatible with LED bulbs. We make lighting to suit the character and appearance of heritage properties; and the modern lifestyles of those who live and work in them.
