Ferguson Bath, Kitchen & Lighting Gallery

Encinitas, CA Lighting Designers and Suppliers

June 29, 2012

“We are building our new home which is 8000 sq ft. We bought all our light fixtures, all the plumbing fixtures and kitchen appliances from Ferguson in Memphis TN. They are very professional and thorough in their business dealing. If there was any change of order or price, they dealt with it professionally. The prices were great as well! At first we were under the impression that Ferguson was an expensive store , but it completely changed once they price matched everything. Overall we would give them an A+.”

“We ordered several MaxLite Plug N Play undercabinet LEDs, 3 dimmer switches, and 10 LED bulbs to replace halogen track light bulbs in our kitchen. We had a few issues with our orders, both preventable and unavoidable, but Environmental Lights was committed to working with us until we were completely satisfied. I'm realistic and know things can go wrong, so the best I hope for is that whomever I give my business to stands behind their products and their service if and when something doesn't go as it should --- which is exactly what EL did. I can't ask for more than that. We worked with Eric G. He was very friendly, professional, and committed to making us happy. We're all set now and the lights look and work exactly as they should...and we LOVE our new kitchen lighting!”

Flexfire LEDs

Encinitas, CA Lighting Designers and Suppliers

November 6, 2013

“I was building a 3D printer and looking for the brightest LEDs I could find... I stumbled onto Flexfire LEDs, and am VERY glad I did! They have a good range of consumer grade, commercial grade, and even industrial grade LEDs. I haven't tried out the industrial grade, yet, but I can attest that the consumer & commercial grade are top notch. They are even brighter than I expected them to be and worked perfectly for how I was using them on my 3D printer build. I liked that they have a lot of accessories that are nice to have to aid in easy installation of the LEDs such as connectors/dimmers/drivers/etc. And they ship quickly to boot!”

Lightstyles

August 24, 2012

“Very impressed with this store and staff! Their display is extensive and carries a wide range of prices and styles. We worked mainly with David Rapay who solved multiple lighting problems that came up during an overly ambitious renovation project. He sat with us in the store for hours to plan out recessed can trims, bulbs and filters - and then remembered each of the can locations and product decisions when questions came up later. He recommended specialized bulbs for wall fixtures with unusual locations and saved us money with less expensive specialized lighting options in other locations. Everyone in the store is friendly, competent and professional. This store was a real find, recommended by our contractor.”

SLABlite, Inc.

Encinitas, CA Lighting Designers and Suppliers

February 9, 2014

“I have worked with TylerCo almost from its inception, when I had some unusual lighting needs for some glass art and stonework I had done. Other companies I approached just told me that what I wanted couldn't be done. Obviously, "can't be done" isn't in the company vocabulary at TylerCo. They designed a solution for me that was totally unique and exactly what I was looking for. TylerCo's vision allowed me to offer an incredible piece of art for my client. Without them, the work would have been very good. With them, it was beyond belief. I'm very grateful for their contribution to my art. Since I now know that my ability to light my work creatively is without limits, I will be able to greatly expand what I do. Thanks, TylerCo!!!”

“Jim Gibson is a master of creation and design! Over the past 20 years he has fabricated a fireplace screen, and several custom light fixtures for both a Spanish Eclectic home and most recently a Modern Farmhouse. His eye for what will work in your home is great - I've followed many recommendations and was always pleased with the outcome. Not to mention that he's very easy to work with!”

A well-lit home is essential for both functional and aesthetic reasons. Lighting designers will analyze your Encinitas, CA home's layout, structure and needs to create an effective lighting plan throughout your home. Though electrical engineers or interior designers can take on the task of outfitting your home with the appropriate lighting, a professional Encinitas lighting designer explores lighting as a technique.

What is a lighting plan designer?

Lighting designers often have a knowledge of physics, optics, ergonomics and environmental issues along with an eye for construction and design, allowing them to devise lighting plans that not only improve visibility but create hierarchies, dynamics and a mood within a space. Often working in conjunction with an architect or interior designer, lighting designers will work to incorporate reflective surfaces and integrate daylight. Here are some related professionals and vendors to complement the work of lighting showrooms & sales: Interior Designers & Decorators, Design-Build Firms, Electricians.

Think about how you plan to use each area of your Encinitas, CA home. It's important to communicate to your California lighting designer which space will be used as an office and which will be a media room, for example, as these will require very different lighting methods. In addition, consider how you'd prefer to control the lights. Lighting technology today includes dimmers, sensors, photocells (that let lights react to the amount of daylight in a space), programmable scene controls (that let you program different settings for varied lighting) and whole-house lighting controls (that let you control all or a portion of your home's lights from one source), allowing you to tailor your lighting controls however you wish.

Be wary of electricians or sales reps posing as lighting designers. Identify professional lighting designers by finding out whether they're involved in lighting programs or associations such as the International Association of Lighting Designers, and confirming that they have LC (Lighting Certification) or CLC (Certified Lighting Consultant) credentials.

Questions to ask a prospective lighting designer:

How long have you been in the business?
How many projects like mine have you completed?
Can you provide me with references?
Are you licensed and insured?
Are you a participant of any professional programs or associations?
How do you charge, and what does that include?
Can you give me a written estimate?
What do your services include?
When can the job get done?
What happens when the cost exceeds the budget? What about when there are changes to materials or labor pricing?
What will I need to provide?
Are there any important considerations or concerns you foresee with this project?
