86 Cheshire Village, CT Lighting Designers and Suppliers

Lighting designers will analyse your Cheshire Village, CT home's layout, structure and needs to create an effective lighting plan throughout your home. This may involve the addition of new light fittings but may also include the movement or addition of power points — recommendations to suit your space and your lifestyle.

Though electrical engineers or interior designers in Cheshire Village can take on the task of outfitting your home with the appropriate lighting, a professional lighting designer explores lighting as a technique. They can match your style, be it antique lamps to match your eclectic vintage home, or modern wall floor lamps to go with your designer furniture.

What Is a Lighting Plan Designer?

Lighting designers often have a knowledge of the best lamps and lighting stores, but also physics, optics, ergonomics and environmental issues which influence construction and design, allowing them to devise lighting plans that not only improve visibility but create hierarchies, dynamics and a mood within a space. Lighting designers often work in conjunction with an architect or interior designer, working to incorporate reflective surfaces and integrate daylight. Here are some related professionals and vendors to complement the work of lighting: Interior Designers & Decorators, Design & Construction Firms, Electricians.

Think about how you plan to use each area of your Cheshire Village, CT home. It's important to communicate to your Connecticut lighting designer which space will be used as for reading and which for enjoying a movie or entertaining, as these will require very different lighting methods. In addition, consider how you'd prefer to control the lights. Lighting technology today includes dimmers, sensors, photocells (that let lights react to the amount of daylight in a space), programmable scene controls (that let you program different settings for varied lighting) and whole-house lighting controls (that let you control all or a portion of your home's lights from one source), allowing you to tailor your lighting controls however you wish.

Be wary of electricians or sales reps posing as lighting designers. Identify professional lighting designers by finding out whether they're involved in lighting programs or associations such as the International Association of Lighting Designers, the Australian Lighting Industry Association (ALIA), or the Lighting Council of Australia
