Lighting adds style, function, and mood to a space.

How do you know if your Interior is lit properly?  Glad you asked!

Here are a few questions to ask yourself:

1.  Can you walk thru a room without tripping over anything?

2.  Does light bounce off surfaces creating a soft glow?

3.  Can you read the newspaper in your favorite chair?  In bed?

4.  Does the fixture ENHANCE your home’s Interior?

The first thing you need to do before you add any lighting…is to define the PURPOSE of the room.

The second, is to establish the area’s main lighting needs.

And, Third, is to create Lighting “Layers”.

Types of lighting:

Overhead lighting: Chandelier & Recessed

Task: Reading lamp & Desk lamp

Ambient (Accent): Floor lamps, Table Lamps (for enhancing the overall mood)

**Quick & easy Lighting change.**

Change the shades on your Dining Room Buffet Lamps.  

Take the old, drab, outdated shades off the fixture (should be very easy and slide right off) and add new, updated shades with a punch of color or beaded design.
