What’s included

Every project is planned with you, drawn in 3D and quoted in writing. Here is what is usually included; we tailor the scope to your home.

For lighting in the rest of the home, see lighting design and installation.

Good to know before you start

Color temperature

Warm white is easier on the eyes at night. We keep every fixture matched.

Shadows

Ceiling lights behind you cast shadows on the counter. Under-cabinet light fixes that.

Controls

Separate switches for each layer let one room feel several ways.
