Elevate Your Fairfield or Westchester County Space with Lighting Control & Shading

Lighting Design


Creating a beautiful home goes beyond selecting the right color schemes and furniture—lighting is essential to the end result. It should highlight architectural details, draw attention to high-end furnishings, and make colors pop. More than just aesthetics, well-designed lighting enhances your daily life, uplifting your mood and supporting your activities. For a truly luxurious lifestyle, consider hiring a professional to optimize your lighting design and control.

Why hire a lighting designer?

Choosing an independent lighting designer might feel like a new step, especially if you’ve always turned to electrical engineers or interior designers for your lighting needs. But when lighting is treated as just another task, it can easily be overlooked. A dedicated lighting designer brings together technical know-how, scientific insight, and creative vision to craft custom solutions that truly elevate your home’s ambiance.
  • Expertise in the latest lighting technology through continuous training
  • Advanced techniques that transform light into dynamic architectural elements
  • Specialized training in physics, optics, electricity, codes, and environmental impact
  • Cost savings through competitive bids and strong manufacturer partnerships
  • Initial cost analysis to identify lighting strategies that reduce equipment and labor expenses
  • Detail-oriented staff creating innovative designs tailored to your home and lifestyle

Essential Layers of Light


A single-tone lighting design can lead to eye strain, harsh shadows, and uninviting spaces. Achieve visual harmony and flexibility by incorporating ambient, task, and accent lighting for a well-balanced environment.
Ambient Light
Fill your room with soft, even lighting from natural sunlight, recessed ceiling lights, or pendant fixtures to create a welcoming atmosphere.
Task Lighting
Brighten specific areas with dedicated lighting like pendant, desk, or under-cabinet lights, offering focused illumination for activities that require precision.
Accent Lighting
Draw attention to artwork, photos, and architectural features with accent lighting that is three times brighter than ambient fixtures.
