And faster than a Tweet!
We all seem to be spending more and more time online nowadays. It might be Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, or Twitter that attracts us. For many people it consumes fully half of their day! It’s so much different than growing up in the 60s, 70s, and 80s!

The Secret to Art Lighting
From Hot to Cool
Hot Lights
Back in the olden days art lighting was accomplished with incandescent bulbs because all other bulbs were inadequate for the task. Fluorescent lights, although long lasting, had a very limited spectrum, and they tended to dim and change color over their lifetime. Plasma discharge bulbs, such as neon, were monochromatic, so also completely useless.
So we worked with incandescent

It’s Great to be Loved
"…but you’re making us blush!
Our customers are folks just like you except, as they say, they were lucky enough to discover Illuminations Lighting Design to handle all their electrical contracting and design work. Some found themselves in the hands of folks that abandoned them halfway through a contract; that didn’t finish the work they promised. Others were lucky and heard about us through friends. They came to

We love to hear from you!
Drop us a quick note!
It only takes a moment—unless you want to tell us a fleshed-out story—to share your experience with our other customers.
Take it from Judith Raines, who summed it all up with:
"Chris—just turned the lights on for the first time. They look fantastic. Thanks to you and your gang."

`Tis the Season for Re-lighting
Getting the right light for the job
A lot of designers use whatever they have on-hand to get the job done. If they have a lot of one type of item that doesn’t seem to be selling, you can bet they’re going to try to convince you that it is exactly what you need. The truth is that it is exactly what they need—to get their money back for something they over-invested in!
At Illuminations Lighting Design we say it

Why We Love our Customers:
As Fresh as All Outdoors
Recently, as we were going through the mail, we were reminded of a delightful landscaping lighting project we designed and built for one of our clients. It was a great redesign, eliminating old power-hungry bulbs that are leftovers from 1890, two centuries ago, from when they were invented.

What our customers are saying:
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

Swingin’ from the Chandeliers!
Our customers love us…and believe us, the feeling is mutual! Without you folks, we wouldn't have stayed in business for nearly 40 years… We couldn't be happier than when we are faced with an interesting and tough problem to solve. Our customer testimonials always make us feel warm and fuzzy inside.
