Most people pick kitchen lighting the same way they pick soap. They grab whatever’s on sale, then hope for the best.

And trust me, your pasta deserves better than “dim yellow...

Lighting Solutions for Cold or Damp Garages

A well-lit garage with a blue car and motorcycle and multiple batten lights on the ceiling.

Ah, garages. The shadowed corner of the home. Figuratively and, sadly, in most cases, literally.

Motion Sensors and Security Lighting for Garages

Is this you? Runs into the garage to pick up the screwdriver, not even bothering to turn on the lights. Just letting what little light from the house to pour in, saying it’s enough since you’re just getting one small thing anyway, but then you end up bumping your foot hard on a random box on the floor. You come...

Bathrooms often get done dirty. They’re usually last on the renovation list, lit like a hospital corridor, and rarely treated as the design-worthy spaces they are.
