Setting the mood




Playing with different lighting effects can significantly alter the mood and feel of any room, and I love using that to my advantage. I tend to select bold pieces that are elegant, modern yet classical, so as to compliment the rest of the room in a timeless manor.  Ceiling-mounted lighting can be great when a lot of light is needed to brighten up a space, or to change the direction of a room while well-placed wall sconces and table lamps are fabulous for setting a particular mood.

The latest trends in chandeliers have taken on a classic lighting idea and reinvented it with gorgeous results. I love Windfall lighting and always have, for it is innovative, powerful and seductive features, which I have loved using in projects over the years. Rather than deal with exposed wiring, which can be distracting and unsightly, crystals are suspended below inconspicuous spotlights mounted on the ceiling. The crystals and metallic accents in their designs have a way with catching the light beautifully, creating incredible prisms’ throughout the room at all times of the day.  When all is said and down, it’s the lasting impression a room leaves with ones guests!
