How to Get the Best Lighting in Your New Home Build
Partner with a Lighting Designer Early in the Process
It takes a team to build or renovate a home—the developer, architect, builder, construction manager, trade contractors, and more. And if you want your house to shine with eye-catching, luxurious lighting, it’s wise to include a lighting designer in your project.
However, homeowners shouldn’t wait until their house is already built to consider lighting design. Loop in a lighting designer as early as possible so they can plan for lighting solutions with the architect, builder, and more.

The Lighting Designer’s Role in New Homes
To a lighting designer, light is the paintbrush, and your house is the canvas. A lighting designer carefully applies lighting solutions to enhance the appearance and ambiance of a home while drawing out the best features in each room.
During your home build project, the lighting designer will collaborate with architects and interior designers to install lighting fixtures in ideal locations, planning how certain brightness levels and LED hues will affect the room’s colors. The designer will order lighting fixtures—everything from recessed lights to chandeliers—to complete the design.
Then we’ll program a lighting control system so you can customize and control LED lights remotely. With a tap on the wall or smartphone, you can adjust the mood in seconds, taking lighting to an all-new level.
Start Early with Lighting Design
We recommend involving a lighting designer early in your building project, preferably when you’re still planning with an architect. This allows the designer to work closely with other contractors, ensuring that fixtures, wiring, and controls are included in the home’s design. But even if it seems “too late” for lighting design, we can always provide wireless or retrofit solutions to make it work.
Benefits of Lighting Design
Highlighting Architecture & Furnishings
Whether your home boasts beautiful crown moldings, a grand staircase, or an elaborate art collection, lighting design can call attention to your home’s best features, like your own personal museum. With color-changeable LED lights, a lighting designer can elevate your walls, floors, furniture, and more, bringing depth and intrigue to any room.
Lighting For Your Routines
Lighting design isn’t just about beauty; it’s also helpful for daily tasks. For example, consider the perfect lighting to cook in the kitchen. With smart lighting scenes, you can tap “Cooking” on the wall and enjoy bright, clean lights— so no crumb is missed.
Uplift Your Outdoor Spaces
What about the patio or backyard? A lighting designer artfully applies lighting to highlight plants, trees, your house’s architecture, and walkways. Suddenly, your outdoor spaces are more inviting to spend time in after dark, and your house will look better than ever from the curb.
