You can hang balloons or paper plates or anything like that from the ceiling to get a sense for the scale. There are a few more you can look at too: Kichler Sayre takes up less visual space because it's flatter, but it may be too indusrial for you. Also, you have to get the biggest size to get a 100W bulb. You may be able to use the middle size with a 60W halogen (it can take up to 75W) and get the same amount of light as a 100W incandescent. Quoizel Emery comes in a bronze, but it's much prettier in this silver. It comes in a small size with a 100W bulb, but that size doesn't have a diffuser. Savoy House 7-602-1 is the least expensive one I've found, and it's kind of cute: If I think of any more I'll let you know. I'll keep an eye out for something with pretty glass, too. Can you tell I'm obsessing over my lighting now?

Hard to get hold of: Bambusa forbesii-from the Bloomfield River north-but mainly Iron Range etc. Schizostachyum sp "Murray Island"- from an island in the northeastern Torres Strait. Bambusa moreheadiana- climbing one from the Wet Tropics Bambusa arnhemica- NT. All grow well in my garden near Murwillumbah- B. arnhemica goes a little yellow on the plants down the slope which is a little colder. I have massive changes in success rates depending on the distance planted from the cold air down the slope and the amount of exposure to full sun and cold wind. B. forbesii grows well and has massive leaves- All are clumpers. S. sp Murray Island forms tight compact clumps and is most attractive- they do amazingly well considering their equatorial habitat on an island!!!! I noticed that our dry wet season this year (only 300mm over the Jan-March period) made them look thirsty-but the cold doesnt worry them -we get down to 3 degrees everywinter-except this winter in which 3.8 has been the coldest-which is up on the norm. From Kris http://www.bambooworld.com.au/pages/contents.htm maybe able to help. I will have sufficient propagation material of both species soon.

I would recommend 3 as you have quite a large island. But if you spread them far enough 2 could work. Also, our lighting could be a great addition to your home. We do custom lighting so we will be able to work to feed your needs and wants. Different amount of pendants, and size of canopy etc. We also do 2D drawing before so you can have an idea of what it would look like before committing!

From reference above. "Now we know you all hate it when we say you SHOULD follow this or that rule, so call this post the Guideline of Threes in your mind if you must. Because there’s a good reason that sitcom wasn’t called Four’s Company, or there weren’t six blind mice. And that same reason can help you create an interesting home that’s not just functional, but also has visual depth and satisfaction. It’s pretty simple: The rule guideline of threes say that things arranged in odd numbers are more appealing, memorable, and effective than even-numbered groupings. Three seems to be *the* magic number, but 5, 7, or 9 work nicely as well. The principle holds weight in interior design, to be sure, but also pops up in graphic design, photography, storytelling, etc… (so you know it’s really a thing). What is it about the odd numbers? Apparently, it’s just how our lovely brains work. For one, three is the smallest number that can be used to form a distinguishable pattern in our heads. Also, when you see an odd number of things, your eye is forced to move around more, which makes for a more interesting visual experience."
