The locally crafted pendant that solves a design dilemma with aesthetic brilliance

Designed by Todd Stevenson and handmade in Tāmaki Makaurau from solid brass, Powersurge’s Lateral Pendant resolves the question of what to hang above a long dining table or kitchen island as a single horizontal stroke of light. The thin rectangular light is customisable in lengths up to four metres. The dimmable LED light allows for practicality and restraint for those moments when the natural light is still the star of the show. As expertly executed in this New Plymouth Residence by Rowson Kitchens and KR Architecture, where it runs the length of the kitchen island and holds its own against a Tasman Sea sunset.
