At Joug Design we make custom products for customers with a particular vision. You can take our product concepts from the Joug products range and play around with them to create something unique and beautiful to suit you own home. When you have an idea of what you might like, simply email us with your specifications and we will work with you to create a light shade that is exclusively you!
 
We also make custom fabric light shades using fabrics from New Zealand fabric designers and suppliers. These shades can be made exactly to your own specifications.

3. Decide on the size (diameter & height) of your new light shade (see below for examples) and the shape and the orientation: table/standard (on a stand) or pendant (hanging).

Here is a small selection of custom shades we have made for past clients:
 
Ruth's light shade
Ruth asked us to make her two light shades using this lovely Ikea fabric.  Her home was featured in the Dompost (1 Aug 2009)
diameter 360mm
height 250mm 
 

 
Bubbles light shade
Anna of Auckland asked us to make her two custom sized
Bubbles light shade each having a diameter of 261mm and a
height of 468mm.  She wanted mostly white light shade with a splash of green and orange.

Tall Floor Light Shade
At 1.5 meters high this is the tallest light shade we have made!  It's a floor light with a weighted bottom and a lamp holder mid-way in the light shade. It just shows that we can try to make nearly anything our customers want.
  

 

Andrea Moore retail shops
Andrea Moore asked if we could produce large 900mm diameter diffuser light shades that do not collect dust on the inside of the diffuser.  This seems to be a problem with traditional diffuser light shades and we have the solution. 

We set about to re-design the traditional diffuser light shade using our minimalist design philosophy.  A new method of manufacturing diffuser light shades was developed taking away from the traditional view and creating a totally new way of designing a light shade. A lot of functionality of the Delightful light shade was borrowed. The end result is a beautiful light shade that produces a soft glow showing off the fabric on the light shade.  

Kowhaiwhai light wall
This is a Kowhaiwhai light wall that we custom designed for Paul and Miriam from Wellington.  The pattern of the kowhaiwhai is specific to Paul's heritage.
