Decorative lighting serves both practical and design purposes, transforming ordinary rooms into well-designed environments that reflect your personal style.

23. How should I choose the right decorative lighting?

Selecting the appropriate decorative lighting depends on several factors: room size, ceiling height, existing décor, and the function of the space. Consider the scale of the fixture in relation to your room dimensions, the amount of light output needed, and how the style complements your interior design. Our certified lighting associates can guide you through these considerations during a personalized consultation.

25. How are residential and commercial lighting needs different?

Residential lighting typically focuses on creating comfortable, inviting atmospheres for everyday living, with emphasis on style and ambiance. Commercial lighting prioritizes durability, energy efficiency, and compliance with building codes while maintaining professional aesthetics. We offer custom lighting solutions for both applications and can help you select fixtures appropriate for your specific environment.

26. Why is it recommended to see a light fixture in person before making a decision?

Viewing a light fixture in person allows you to assess its true size, finish quality, and light output, which photographs cannot fully convey. You can examine craftsmanship details, test dimming capabilities, and see how the fixture coordinates with material samples from your space. Visiting our Northborough showroom allows you to experience fixtures firsthand before making your investment.

27. How should I take care of my decorative lighting fixtures?

Proper maintenance extends the life and appearance of your decorative lighting. Dust fixtures regularly with a soft, dry cloth, and clean glass or crystal components with appropriate cleaning solutions. Always turn off the power before cleaning a light fixture and follow manufacturer guidelines for bulb replacement and specific care instructions. For custom or designer fixtures, consult with our team about recommended maintenance procedures.
