OUR TESTIMONIALS

WHAT THEY SAY
ABOUT US

  • Very well organised class. Adele is extremely knowledgeable about all things to do with light. Thoroughly enjoyed the class. I'm an electrician and if you want to take your lighting knowledge to the next level and expand your knowledge to better educate not only yourself but your customers so they make an educated decision about their lighting, do this course! I've come out of this course more obsessed with light than I was before doing the course.

  • Light + Lighting Design Masterclass was not just informative, but truly educational. I learned an incredible amount about the fascinating world of light. Adele’s passion for the subject was palpable and infectious. It made the entire journey of exploration even more engaging. The knowledge and insights I gained during this Masterclass were invaluable and I am excited to put this newfound lighting knowledge into action.

  • I flew down from Brisbane to attend the Lighting Masterclass with Adele and am glad I did - my ideas & knowledge about lighting have been enhanced tenfold, and I can't wait to implement this newfound knowledge on willing customer's homes.

  • I undertook Adele's Masterclass last week and it was great. I'd highly recommend it to any interior designers who are creating lighting plans. It was a fun day with a great group of people.

    — Jane Mahood, Interior Designer

  • It was a pleasure meeting Adele and Ian for the Mint Lighting Design Masterclass. The energy and time that has gone into sharing their knowledge and passion about all things light is incredibly inspiring. Adele was incredibly knowledgeable, super clear and happy to answer any questions or go further into a topic if it was not completely understood. It is great experience from the first foot in the door, as the workshop itself reflects the time and effort that shows incredible insight to light, its characteristics and how it can be utilised.
