About Us

Elegant | Dramatic | Efficient I am a Berkeley, CA based independent architectural lighting designer who values the spirit of collaboration and open communication. When I am involved early in the design process, I can help design lighting that is thoughtfully integrated and concealed. I light homes, offices, hotels, restaurants, landscapes, art galleries & collections, cannabis dispensaries, wellness centers, places of worship and retail stores & boutiques. I collaborate with architects, interior designers, kitchen designers, landscape architects, and artists to realize their aesthetic and functional lighting goals. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Lighting design approach: Understand the essence of the design and make the most of it with light and shadow. Amplify the architectural and the material assets of the design. Reinforce the design vision without drawing attention to the light source or luminaire. Light is dynamic Light can reveal and transform Light can direct the eye Light can calm, can protect Light can encourage intimacy and elicit emotion Light can bring a sense of peace I believe darkness is a luxury Services: Lighting for ambience Lighting to host and entertain Lighting that flatters people Lighting for work Lighting to relax Architectural Lighting Design: Clean, detailed, legible RCPs Drafting with AutoCAD Calculations with AGi32 Mockups Detail development Lighting control & dimming systems Motorized shading systems Specifications Lighting schedules Custom luminaire design Visualization: SketchUp Digital photo markups Hand sketching Focusing: Aim, lens and louver directional lighting Punch list detailing outstanding lighting issues Set and save preset lighting scenes for day and night
