Why Lighting Design Deserves a Seat at the Table 

When it comes to lighting design, many homeowners understandably lean on their architect or interior designer for guidance. These professionals play a critical role in shaping a home’s aesthetics and functionality—but lighting is a specialized discipline that goes beyond general layout and finish selections.

Let’s explore the three key levels of lighting design so you can make informed choices as your project moves forward.
