Layered lighting plans that make rooms warm, functional and beautiful, with fixtures, bulbs, dimmers and placement chosen together.
Lighting changes how a room looks and how it feels. One overhead fixture flattens a room, and layers of ceiling, task, accent and decorative light make it warm and useful. Homeowners in Nashville ask us for lighting design when rooms feel dim, harsh or flat, or when they are remodeling and want to plan fixtures and switches before the walls close.
We begin with a Free Estimate and study how each room is used. We plan recessed, pendant, sconce, lamp and under-cabinet lighting, choose fixtures, bulb color and brightness and design switches and dimmers. We prepare a lighting plan for your electrician with locations and notes, and we help select decorative fixtures that fit the style and scale. Lighting design begins with daylight, then adds layers. Ambient light fills the room, task light helps you work and read, accent light highlights art and architecture and decorative fixtures give personality. We choose color temperature and dimmers to match each use, and we position switches where you naturally reach for them. For remodels, we mark fixture locations on the plans before walls close, which avoids costly changes. Good lighting makes people look better, rooms feel larger and everyday tasks easier.
