reative lighting has
the ability to visually enhance any space. Lighting can provide additional
interest and aesthetic value unattainable by other means. Through the
thoughtful use of lighting, we can achieve a variety of moods, selectively
enhance architecture and bring to life those objects that reveal who we are
and what we feel.

Lighting should reinforce a design; however, its misuse or
neglect can leave an otherwise well planned space, looking lifeless and
washed out. Lighting can be thought of as the final sculptor of a space, its
use being crucial in meeting the needs of the client and the design.

Good lighting design is a response to the client's needs, the
tasks to be performed and the intent of the design. We create a good design
by undertaking a comprehensive study of the environment and its occupants;
only then can we make informed decisions regarding lighting concepts and
technique.
