### Providing support: Hobart Women's Shelter's new housing project
In early 2022, the [Hobart Women's Shelter](https://hobartws.org.au/) embarked on a mission to build 25 new long-term homes for women and children in need. In 2023, they received generous donations of two land titles and is now exploring how to progress these land opportunities to achieve their goal.

You can support Hobart Women's Shelter and their mission by donating through their [Buy a Brick](https://hobartws.org.au/buy-a-brick-campaign/) initiative. Through Buy a Brick, anyone can be a helping hand in creating beautiful, safe homes and housing pathways for women and children.

### Creating safe spaces: trauma-informed design at Hobart Women's Shelter
Accompanying Hobart Women's Shelter in their new vision are [Core Collective Architects](https://www.corecollective.com.au/) and [Christopher Clinton Architects](https://christopherclinton.com.au/). Under their collaboration, the homes are guided by trauma-informed design principles of safety, flexibility and sustainability. Captured through the lens of the talented photographer [Adam Gibson](https://adamgibson.com.au/), Isabel and Elsie, the two prototype homes, are the perfect example of their design practice.

Lighting is a significant contributor to residents' living experience, and of course, it is also meticulously considered when designing these homes. With [Southern Lighting](https://southernlighting.com.au/) as the designer, Hobart Women's Shelter's practical approach to lighting design seamlessly integrates with the shelter's mission, ensuring that every space is as welcoming as it is functional. Unios is honoured to have sponsored the lighting for the Hobart Women's Shelter, reflecting our shared values of community support and thoughtful design. 

### Introducing comfort and a sense of safety through thoughtful lighting design
To embrace comfort, indirect lighting is seen in many areas of the houses.

From the entrance, the **Iris Wall Light** embrace occupants in a soft and diffused light emitting from behind a circular plate. Complementing the Iris's softness is the **Tourmaline Wall Light**'s cube design with contoured corners. Exuding light softly in two directions, the Tourmaline offers a unique aesthetics for living areas.

Outside, the **Vega Outdoor Light** provides gentle illumination from its Eyelid model. Featuring vandal-resistance screws and meeting the IK10 rating, the luminaire is the perfect option for any outdoor lighting scenario.
