Lighting design to put your house in the best light

Lighting design and installations should be done by your Fort Mill SC expert. Have you ever had an expert in lighting design look at your Fort Mill home? If not, you may not know what you are missing. The next time you are going to remodel, consider calling in a lighting design and installations expert to handle that aspect of the work, and discuss with you ways to make your home look as good as it possibly can.

Without getting too much into the history of candles and hand-held lamps, the history of modern lighting design begins with gas lighting and continues with electricity. Before then, major works of lighting design consisted of chandeliers, candelabras and creative use of sunlight such as the stained-glass window. In the early nineteenth century, engineers learned to extract a mixture of hydrogen, methane and carbon monoxide from coal and run it through pipes for public and residential lighting. This system lended itself to replacement with electricity.

And electricity, more than anything else, made the modern era of lighting design possible. Suddenly, homeowners had more say than ever in how much light their homes would have, and where the light would go, and what kind of light it would be. Kitchens could have task lighting — sharp, clear white light focused on the counters, for reading cookbooks and judging the ripeness of bananas. Living rooms could have a gentle, ambient light that let everyone see each other clearly with no unpleasant glare.

Lighting design and installations can go a long way toward making a home look different and better. A new style of lamp can have a surprising effect all by itself. And if you are repainting or putting in new wallpaper, you will want to choose the color of light that shows your paint or wallpaper to best advantage.

And then, of course, there is exterior lighting design and installation. This, more than any other, is something that requires the touch of an expert, because it requires someone who can hook exterior lights up to the electrical system of your home in a way that will not damage your house or be damaged by the weather.
