Three Balls Red is not your run-of-the-mill lighting store, it’s part showroom, part retail space and part creative hub where home renovators can pop in for inspiration, advice or sit with staff and storyboard a room from start to finish. The eclectic space is the brainchild of Jasmine Potter, who became obsessed with lighting through her husband’s work as a lighting designer and began importing and stockpiling unusual and unique pieces that she personally liked. When friends began forming an orderly line, she opened Three Balls Red and has since expanded into tiles and miscellaneous other bits and bobs for your home.

Fast-forward a year and the pieces Jasmine was originally cautioned not to buy because the Gold Coast’s tastes weren’t quite as evolved as our southern sister states have in fact been some of the best sellers. So whether you’re searching for an eye-catching industrial piece or a modish pendant to complete a room, Three Balls Red has something to suit, and if not, they can source something specially. Some of Jasmine’s wares can be found in homes and restaurants around the Gold Coast including The Cambus Wallace and Cicchetti.
