We offer the following levels of service:

Level 1 – Advice from a Lighting Designer

Free advice over the phone on choosing light fittings for particular applications.

Level 2 – Consultation with a Lighting Designer

A lighting designer will visit you onsite, or use your detailed Architects drawings, to discuss with you your lighting needs room by room, make suggestions, and provide advice that will help you to determine how to light your rooms. This service is intended for anyone who is looking for help in creating their own lighting schemes but does not need a scheme created for them.

Level 3 – Lighting Design

A lighting designer will visit you onsite, or use your detailed Architects drawings, to discuss with you your lighting needs room by room. We will then design a lighting scheme for each of your rooms, and provide a detailed proposal in writing, together with suitably marked-up floor plans. The proposed lighting schemes will be adapted and amended, for no extra fee, until you are entirely happy with them.

Level 4 – Lighting Design + Project Management

In addition to the Level 3 Lighting Design services described above we will liaise with your Architect, Builder, and Electrician throughout the build to ensure everything proceeds as planned.

Level 5 – Lighting Design + Lighting Control + Project Management

In addition to the Level 4 service, of Lighting Design and Project Management, we will also design, specify, and commission a lighting control system to go with the proposed lighting scheme. This control system may optionally include control of audio/visual, heating, blinds, security, and garden sprinkler systems.

The Power of Lighting

Lighting design is one of the most important parts of the interior design process.

Lighting sets the mood

It can transform the atmosphere of a room; just as theatre lighting can transform the stage.

Lighting affects the mind, body, and spirit

It can be calming, invigorating, exciting, revealing, and mysterious. At the flick of a switch the mood of a room can be transformed from light and functional, to subtle and atmospheric. Hot colours can be used to invigorate and stimulate, cool colours to sooth and calm.

Lighting affects the perception of space

Small rooms can be made to feel larger, large rooms smaller. Through appropriate lighting ceilings can be made to appear higher or lower.

Lighting can obscure or highlight

It can alter colour, and emphasise texture. It can highlight architectural features, furniture, and works of art.

Please contact us for more details of the many benefits of using a lighting designer, or to find out how we use lights to transform spaces.

We also supply a large range of contemporary lights that are not available in high street stores, including: wall lights, floor lights, table lights, standard lamps, recessed lights, surface mounted downlighters, ceiling lights, pendant lights, and exterior lights for gardens and other outside spaces.
