How can lighting affect your interior design project?

Lighting design is one of the most important elements in architecture and design. Unfortunately, quite often it is not given its rightful place in the early phases of design. Retrofitting lighting "after the fact" can be not only costly, but challenging - and makes it difficult to achieve a proper lighting scheme. Thinking about lighting at the very beginning of your design concept can help you achieve the most pleasing effects.

Artificial Light versus “Daylighting” ? Both are indispensible. Allowing natural light to filter through in the day time not only enhances the space architecturally but it also helps people feel good within it. Daylighting is a tool also used in the Lighting Design world to help save energy. Hiring a Lighting Designer early in the architectural design phase can bring about wonderful opportunities in Daylighting.

For artificial lighting, there are countless fixture options on the market today. Knowing what type to use is key. As a lighting designer, I can help you navigate through the myriad of choices available, taking into consideration budget, space, style -- and still have the right effect for a particular application.
