At Wolfers, our goal is to help customers understand the value of good lighting design. A well-laid out lighting design not only will highlight architectural features, but also create moods, improve function and make you feel safe and comfortable in your home. Some typical challenges include…

Structural Challenges:

High ceilings can create “dark holes,” so indirect lighting may be needed to fill the dark void. For example, a large center lighting element will provide good general lighting. For low ceilings, wall sconces can be used. And for wood ceilings, track lighting and cable systems can provide lighting, while maintaining the beauty and integrity of the wood surface.

Wall Surfaces, Textures and Colors:

These three elements affect how light is focused, how it is reflected and what lamp source should be used. By knowing your surfaces and color scheme in advance, we can help you make the right decisions for your space.

Large Windows:

Although they are beautiful, large window become “black holes” at night. By adding landscape lighting to your home, you can increase security outside, while adding a dramatic nighttime view to your room.

Lack of Wall Space:

We recommend using floor and table lamps for direct and indirect lighting when lack of wall space is a concern. We can install a single main switch that refers to hidden dimmers and controls in a remote location, such as a closet.
