Light your space! An asset for every area! This exquisite collection is brilliantly conceived to bring light to your homes. Right lighting can make a world of difference to your space. Explore our wide variety of forms, colors and specification to light up your house inside out!

LIGHT YOUR SPACE BATHROOM LIGHTING LIGHT YOUR SPACE BATHROOM LIGHTING More spacious and multifunctional than ever before, the once-utilitarian bathroom has evolved into a private retreat for relaxation, escape and self-indulgence. The right lighting can make a bathroom even more gracious. Whether built new or recently remodeled, bathrooms today demand intricate lighting solutions. Task lighting must be bright enough to do its job, but also work well with indirect accent lighting to soften the room s ambiance and provide a warm glow. Decorative and ornate light fixtures and lamps provide elegance and sophistication. Shower light brighten up enclosed stalls. Reading lamps by the toilet provide more focused light. Lighting Techniques for the Bathroom - For small mirrors, decorative wall fixtures placed on each side of the mirror will provide the even, shadow-free facial illumination necessary for daily grooming tasks. For best results, mount fixtures at least 28 apart and 60 off the floor. (Figure 1) Newer techniques of bathroom lighting even include using small pendants on either side of the mirror. (Figure 1) (Figure 2) - For large mirrors, a strip of horizontal vanity lights will ensure that each person has sufficient light. Mount the strip 78» off the floor. The best lighting solution is achieved with fixtures that include a shade for each bulb. Also add a dimmer to your vanity light. You will be amazed at how often you will use it and how much comfort it adds to the use of your bathroom. (Figure 2) - Shower and tub lighting should be bright enough for cleaning, shaving and reading shampoo labels. Choose recessed downlights designed for use in wet areas. Shielded fixtures will protect reclining bathers eyes from glare. An adjustable accent light aiming from outside the tub is dramatic, glare-free and great for those who bring books to the bath. (Figure 3) - Undercabinet lighting can make middle-of-the-night trips to the bathroom safer and easier. Install a low-voltage linear lighting or LED system in the toe spaces beneath the vanities and cabinets. Consider installing an occupancy sensor wall switch so the lights come on when you need them and switch off when not in use to save energy. (Figure 4) (Figure 3) (Figure 4) - In the center of the ceiling, a decorative light fixture that blends with the rest of your decor provides an elegant touch while providing adequate light for safety, cleaning and moving about. It also balances the brightness of other bathroom lights. Ceiling mount fixtures, small chandeliers and decorative vent fans with integrated lighting are a few of the options for modern bathrooms. (Figure 5) 38 39 (Figure 5)

LIGHT YOUR SPACE BEDROOM LIGHTING LIGHT YOUR SPACE BEDROOM LIGHTING When lighting a bedroom, you will want to create an overall atmosphere of quiet relaxation, while providing some bright spots for reading and other activities. A combination of general and task lighting that takes into account the age and lifestyle of the occupant(s) is needed. Remember, dimming controls give you the flexibility to vary the light to suit different moods and activities. Lighting Techniques for the Bedroom - General, ambient lighting can be provided by ceiling fixtures, chandeliers, fan lights, recessed downlights or wall sconces, giving you the illumination you need to dress and see into drawers and closets. (Figure 1) - For closets, recessed or close-to-the-ceiling fixtures give you good general lighting without taking up much space. (Figure 2) - Next to the bed, portable lamps provide plenty of light for reading, or you can install swing-arm wall lamps to free up the space on your end tables. Another idea is to hang pendants next to the bed or install recessed downlights in the ceiling over the bed. (Figure 3) (Figure 2) (Figure 1) (Figure 3) 40 41

LIGHT YOUR SPACE DINING ROOM LIGHTING LIGHT YOUR SPACE DINING ROOM LIGHTING Dining room lighting should be both beautiful and functional. This can be accomplished using a mix of ambient, task and accent lighting. These various layers of light establish the mood for a variety of functions, including dining, homework or family bookkeeping. Dimming controls will enable you to vary the light for each function. - A chandelier is often the focal point of a dining room. Suspended over the dining table, it serves as a decorative element that enhances the beauty of your fine furnishings. When the light is dimmed, a soft, glowing atmosphere similar to candlelight is created. If equipped with a downlight, the chandelier provides task lighting for the table and accent lighting for a centerpiece. Choose a chandelier that is 6 narrower than the smallest width of the dining table. If your table is 48 x 72, then the recommended width of the fixture is approximately 36. The chandelier should hang approximately 30 above the tabletop in an 8 ceiling. For each additional foot of ceiling height, add one inch. In a 10 ceiling, the chandelier should hang approximately 32 above the table. (Figure 1) - Recessed or track lighting provides ambient lighting, while enabling you to highlight prized possessions throughout the room. A row of four recessed downlights around the dining table supplements the light from the downlights while providing accent lighting for your tableware. (Figure 2) - Be sure to leave room for the unexpected! These optical crystal luminaires will add sparkle to any dining room. They are easily mounted and can be grouped together to create a custom light sculpture in a pattern or random array. (Figure 3) (Figure 2) (Figure 1) (Figure 3) 42 43

LIGHT YOUR SPACE KITCHEN LIGHTING LIGHT YOUR SPACE KITCHEN LIGHTING Today s kitchen, the center of family activity, wins hands-down as the modern home s busiest room. Lighting requirements depend on the size and complexity of the kitchen space. While the kitchen is primarily a work area, it may also be used for dining or as a gathering place for family and friends. Small kitchens may require only a central ceiling fixture and task lighting tucked under a cabinet. More elaborate kitchens will demand a blend of general, task and accent lighting. Lighting Techniques for the Kitchen - General kitchen lighting can be achieved with either recessed lighting or a central, decorative chandelier. Recessed lighting is best placed around the perimeter of the room and approximately 30 away from the wall. Chandeliers can be used in addition to other lighting in the space. In the kitchen, it is best to use chandeliers with semi-transparent glass shades instead of fabric shades because the glass is much easier to clean. (Figure 1) - Undercabinet lighting will quickly and easily illuminate your countertops. It is available in a variety of choices, including slim, energy-efficient fluorescents, miniature track lights and low-voltage linear systems. Place undercabinet fixtures at the front of your cabinet not against the wall so the light will be distributed evenly over the area below. Also, consider putting your undercabinet lighting on a dimmer separate from other lighting in yourkitchen. The different levels of light can add depth and dramatic impact to your space, and dimming is an easy way to save energy. (Figure 2) - Over the sink or range, recessed downlights assure even illumination. Install them to create adequate task lighting for cooking, baking and scouring pots and pans. Today s recessed fixtures are available with a variety of trims, including metallic, so you can add a bit of flair as well as function. Plus, not all recessed fixtures are round! Square downlights have gained popularity with homeowners searching for a unique design look. An alternative to recessed lights is a track or rail system, which may be preferable if you are remodeling and do not have easy access to the space above the kitchen. (Figure 3) - Lighting over the kitchen table is multipurpose used for dining, homework, hobbies or family business. A decorative pendant will provide sufficient task lighting while also adding a touch of style and personality to your space. Mount pendant fixtures 30 above the table top. If your table is round, the fixture should ideally be 12 narrower than the diameter of the table. For square and rectangular tables, choose a fixture that is 12 narrower than the smallest side. (Figure 4) - Island counters and breakfast bars demand a combination of task and general lighting. A very good solution is to add a group of miniature pendants. Mount each pendant so that the bottom of the shade is approximately 66 above the floor so it is possible to look across the room below the pendants. If the shades are not very deep and there is seating at the kitchen island or peninsula, install the pendants a few inches lower (60 above the floor). In general, you should install one pendant for every two feet of counter space. Thin, narrow pendants, however, might look more pleasing with the addition of one or two extra fixtures. (Figure 5) (Figure 1) (Figure 3) (Figure 5) (Figure 2) (Figure 4) 44 45

LIGHT YOUR SPACE LIVING / FAMILY ROOM LIGHT YOUR SPACE LIVING / FAMILY ROOM To meet the varied needs of a living room or family room - entertaining, watching television, reading, playing games, accenting artwork - three to four layers of lighting should be used. These might include recessed lighting around the perimeter of the room, a chandelier or central decorative fixture for general lighting, wall sconces for mood and portable lamps for reading and other tasks. Use dimmers whenever possible for maximum control of all fixtures. Lighting Techniques for the Living/Family Room - Undercabinet lighting used in display cabinets provides accent lighting for showcased objects. They are visually appealing and can provide the focal point in any room where they are used. (Figure 1) - Portable lamps can deliver ambient, task and accent lighting while giving you the flexibility to move the light wherever you want. Table lamps, floor lamps are available in a variety of styles to complement your interior design. (Figure 2) (Figure 1) (Figure 2) - Ambient lighting provides a living room with overall illumination. Also known as general lighting, it radiates a comfortable level of brightness without glare and allows you to see and walk about safely. Ambient light can be provided by chandeliers, ceiling or wall-mounted fixtures, and recessed or track lights. (Figure 3) - Accent lighting adds drama to a room by creating visual interest. As part of an interior design scheme, it is used to focus interest on houseplants, paintings, sculpture and other prized possessions. To be effective, accent lighting requires at least three times as much light on the focal point as the general lighting surrounding it. Accent lighting is usually provided by track, recessed or wall-mounted fixtures. (Figure 4) - Chandeliers add style and a decorative focal point to almost any room in the house. Recent lighting design trends have focused on the value of chandeliers in many spaces throughout the house. They have traditionally been used in the dining room, but are now commonly used in living rooms and dens. The addition of a dimmer lets you alter the intensity of the light to suit the mood or activity. (Figure 5) (Figure 3) (Figure 4) (Figure 5) 46 47

LIGHT YOUR SPACE OTHER HOME AREAS LIGHT YOUR SPACE OTHER HOME AREAS - In the entrance foyer, general lighting is needed to welcome guests and assure safe passage. This can be furnished by a decorative ceiling fixture that emits a generous spread of light. If more light is needed, consider placing matching wall sconces on either side of a foyer mirror. (Figure 1) - Hallways should be illuminated every 8 to 10 feet for safety. You can accomplish this with ceiling fixtures, wall sconces, recessed fixtures or track lighting. Movable track fixtures will give you the general lighting you need for safety, while allowing you to accent any artwork or family photos. (Figure 2) - Stairs should be lighted from top to bottom to prevent accidents, with switches at both ends for convenience. If hall and foyer fixtures do not illuminate the entire stairway, you can install a chain-hung or close-to-ceiling fixture above the top step. (Figure 3) - Utility/laundry areas need plenty lighting for sorting and spotting laundry, measuring detergent and setting dials. Consider a large ceiling fixture with energy-efficient fluorescent tubes or recessed fixtures spaced evenly around the room for general lighting. Adjustable track lighting and undercabinet lighting can also be good options for task lighting. (Figure 4) (Figure 2) (Figure 3) (Figure 1) 48 49 (Figure 4)

LIGHT YOUR SPACE OUTDOOR LIGHTING LIGHT YOUR SPACE OUTDOOR LIGHTING Outdoor lighting enhances the beauty of your property while providing safety and security. Outdoor lighting also allows you to take advantage of your outdoor spaces after dark and adds value to your home. Techniques for Outdoor Lighting - A well-lit front entrance enables you to greet guests and identify visitors. Wall lanterns on each side of the door will give your home a warm, welcoming look, while assuring the safety of those who enter. Under a porch or other overhang, you can use recessed, chain-hung or close-to-ceiling fixtures. A separate rear or side entrance can be lighted with a single wall lantern installed on the keyhole side of the door. (Figure 1) - Steps, paths, and driveways should be illuminated to make sure family members and guests are able to move about easily and safely after dark. You can install path lights or post lanterns or attach lights to the side of the house. Low-level path lights, which spread circular patterns of light, will brighten your walkway while highlighting nearby flower beds, shrubs and ground cover. Low-level path lights can also be used to define the boundaries of long driveways. (Figure 2) (Figure 1) (Figure 2) - Decks, porches, and patios can be converted into romantic evening retreats by concealing lowvoltage mini-lights under steps, railing or benches. Another idea is to install a spotlight in the branches of a nearby tree. (Figure 3) - Pools and fountains illuminated with underwater lighting provide beauty and safety for evening entertaining or swimming. Low-voltage and LED lighting are popular sources for ambient pool lighting, or install fiber-optic lighting to create a starry background in your pool s floor and around its edges. Floating and solar-powered lights are also available. (Figure 4) - Grills and serving areas benefit from bright task lighting. To accomplish this, install a recessed spot-light on an adjacent roof overhang, mount lights on a railing behind the grill or use a portable fixture approved for outdoor environments. (Figure 5) (Figure 3) (Figure 4) 50 51 (Figure 5)
