Lighting Design

Creating a stunning home involves more than just picking the right colors and furniture—lighting is an essential element. Proper lighting highlights architectural features, draws attention to exquisite furnishings, and makes colors pop. It also enhances everyday living, lifting your mood and helping you accomplish daily tasks. Trust only a professional to optimize your lighting design and control for a truly luxurious lifestyle and home.

Why hire a lighting designer?

You might wonder why you need an independent lighting designer when you've relied on electrical engineers and interior designers for lighting all your life. However, when lighting is treated as a secondary task, it becomes an afterthought. A lighting designer combines technical, scientific, and artistic expertise to provide the ultimate lighting solutions tailored to your needs.

Essential Layers of Light

Avoid eye strain and harsh shadows with a balanced approach to lighting. Use ambient, task, and accent lighting for a flexible and visually appealing space.

Ambient Light

Illuminate the whole room with natural sunlight, recessed ceiling lights, or elegant pendants.

Task Lighting

Provide bright, focused light for specific tasks with pendant, desk, or under-cabinet lights.

Accent Lighting

Showcase the beauty of artwork, photos, and architectural details with lighting that's three times brighter than ambient fixtures.

Daytime

Kickstart your workday with a "Daytime" lighting scene that activates at 9 am. Enter your home office greeted by bright white-blue ambient and desk lights for optimal focus.
Bedtime

Prepare for a restful night's sleep with a "Bedtime" scene activated from a bedside remote or tablet. Lights gradually dim and switch to a warm, orange hue to promote relaxation.
Entertaining

Set the perfect party atmosphere with a "Party" lighting scene. Activate white-blue lights in the kitchen and living room to keep guests energized, and add landscape lighting to draw them to your outdoor spaces.
Movie Night

Create the ideal viewing environment with a "Movie Night" scene. Dim recessed lights and decorative sconces, and activate floor track lighting to navigate safely during the film.

Architectural Fixtures

Achieve a successful layered lighting design by incorporating a variety of fixtures, rather than relying solely on ceiling lights. Our designers use high-end pendants, downlights, and track lights to create even, layered lighting that enhances your home’s beauty and functionality.

Linear Pendants

Innovative Lighting

Add a design-forward touch to your decor with pendant lights in a range of colors and finishes. These elegant fixtures support both ambient and task lighting needs, transforming your interior design.

Downlights

Elegance and Minimalism

Provide clutter-free illumination with downlights, used primarily for ambient lighting and also for task or accent lighting. Available in round or square trims, they blend seamlessly with your décor.

Retrofit Downlights

Bring Modernity to Every Space

Update your lighting effortlessly with retrofit downlights. These low-profile fixtures fit standard recessed housing and come in high-end tunable LED options, available in round or square trims.

Track lighting

Adaptable Solutions for Your Home

Enjoy versatile lighting with track lights, perfect for accent and task lighting. Adjustable spotlights on a track or rail system highlight artwork or illuminate cabinets. Choose from straight, round, or curved tracks to suit your style.

Lighting Control

Effortlessly manage your lighting to unlock its full potential with a streamlined control system. A centralized approach allows you to beautifully layer and maintain uniform lighting throughout your home. Enjoy intuitive, custom control from your favorite devices while achieving a clean, clutter-free space with easy installation. .;l

Interfaces

High-end lighting control systems come with personalized interfaces on dedicated touchpads or mobile apps. Customize your lighting with user-friendly graphic menus that display the status of lights in each room and allow changes with a simple tap. Adjust the intensity, color, and temperature of your lights individually or in groups, then save your preferred settings for easy access.

Processor

The processor is the brain of your lighting control system, ensuring smooth communication between your control devices and fixtures. A high-end processor guarantees quick, accurate responses to your commands. Our experts will select the best model for your needs based on its bandwidth and processing power during the initial design stage.

Dimming Panels

Professional lighting control systems stand out with centralized dimmer panels. These panels, installed out of sight in an equipment room or utility closet, handle all dimming and control functions. This setup reduces wall clutter, simplifies wiring, enhances programming capabilities, and minimizes the need for power boosters, while also managing fans and motors.

Smart Dimmers/Switches

Eliminate wall clutter further with smart dimmers and switches that support complex commands and scenes. Luxury keypads replace multiple switches and dimmers, streamlining your decor. These keypads provide instant access to scenes, allow house-wide light management, and combine dimmer and switch controls in one unit. Choose from flush-mounted solutions in matte, metal, or glass finishes to match any decor.

Why Motorized Shading?

Motorized window treatments elevate your daily routines, offering improved climate control, lighting management, security, privacy, and overall quality of life. With a variety of beautiful fabrics and styles, you can find window treatments that perfectly match your decor. Integrated with your smart home system, motorized shades offer seamless control with timers and scenes, transforming your home effortlessly.

Achieve perfect lighting by integrating motorized shades with your existing smart home system and adjusting both shading and lighting together.
Create zones for various lighting needs throughout your home for automated control.
Enjoy precise natural lighting control as your shades rise and lower in unison, quietly and on schedule.
