Services for Contractors, Architects & Interior Designers

Lighting design support from day one. Let’s build something brilliant together.

The role of architects, interior designers, and builders has evolved. Today’s standout projects go beyond aesthetics. They integrate smart lighting, energy management, and automation from the start.

We partner with professionals to bring lighting and technology to life through fully engineered plans, photometric layouts, and turnkey project management. Wow your client, prep for publication, or streamline specs for your subs, we offer the expertise and support to help you do it smarter and beautifully.
