those beautiful lights are made by niche modern. more info here http://www.nichemodern.com/site/

it looks like the model you like is the 'pharos' http://www.nichemodern.com/Merchant/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=PHA

try and get up close to them in a quiet room before you buy, they make a slight buzzing noise as the filament vibrates while they are lit.

cheers,

Apartment Therapy Los Angeles | LA Good Questions: Where Can I Find This Light?

hey, that is my cat on AT again!

installing the cables isn't as hard as you think. as long as you are reasonably confident that you have a vertical space that is clear from the tv mount to the cabinet below you just use a hole-saw and cut two holes at each end to feed the cables through. a good trick is to get a vinyl coated thin wire that is 3 times the length of your cable run and use as the first cable through, then tie a loop midway on that cable to guide another cable down, untie the pulled cable at the bottom and tie another to pull up. back and forth a few times and you have all the cables you need.

a big of advice: even if you don't think you are going to use all the cable hookups on the back of that fancy plasma tv you should connect and thread a cable for each hookup while you are doing the project. the extra cost in cables up front is well worth it so you don't have to do it again later when you buy one more component.

it was pretty easy so i did it twice, here is our bedroom lcd http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/photo/021407averytour/avery22/large
