I help clients acquire lighting, fans and controls for high-end projects. I post about architectural lighting and operating a business.

Preserving the past: Lighting historic homes and spaces... Restoration or recreation of historic spaces demands a lighting approach that honors history while embracing the present. The challenge lies in respecting the heritage and highlighting the uniqueness of the period. • Preserve original chandeliers and sconces as irreplaceable treasures. • Select finishes and materials that reflect the era. • Choose lighting sources that offer a nod to the romantic ambiance of the time period. The goal is not to erase history with modern minimalism but to spotlight the provenance that makes these estates revered. Balancing legacy with contemporary living requires knowledge and skill, ensuring that every luminary addition feels like it has always belonged. #HistoricPreservation #LightingDesign #InteriorDesign
