Lighting Feature – Murdoch Hospital Cardiology Precinct

Murmuration’s lighting installation forms the focal point of the central light well in the cardiology waiting area. The custom-designed recess and canopy were meticulously shaped to integrate with the existing base-build pillar, creating a seamless architectural feature.

Developed from concept stage with a strong narrative, the design draws subtle inspiration from the form of a heart—an intentional reference to the function and spirit of the space.

Suspended from the bespoke canopy, forty individual pendants hang at varying lengths, creating a sense of movement and depth. This careful variation introduces rhythm and softness, transforming the waiting area into a calming, immersive environment that enhances patient comfort and wellbeing.
