Neatness Counts!
Sometimes our family members can drive us crazy. Maybe the kids ran into the house, directly from the garden, and tracked globs of mud all over the kitchen. Maybe our spouse who just fixed our car, but wiped poorly-washed hands on our new towels. We are quick to reassure our clumsy guest who spilled a glass of red wine because they are, after all, our friend.
We teach our children to be tho

Whole House Power Conditioners
They can pay for themselves
This could be a very complicated discussion about parallel wraparound magnetic chokes that take surges on one phase of your electrical supply, clean it up and redeliver it to the opposite phase as clean “free” energy at the proper voltage and 60Hz. It sounds like bafflegab, designed to overwhelm people. Illuminations Lighting Design hates bafflegab (as our customers are more than hap

Direct, Phantom, or Remote?
What is the best way to light your art?

Chandeliers
They have their ups and downs…
The word chandelier comes from Old French and means “candle-holder.” Long before electricity, a chandelier was one of the brightest sources of illumination possible, so naturally, we folks at Illuminations Lighting Design find them absolutely fascinating.
Designs have varied over the years but early ones were simply circular objects like a wagon wheel, or ship’s wheel with candles a
