Solution of the Week: Vase into Lamp

We transformed this old pot into a living room lamp for one of our clients. Naomi’s Lampshades & Lamps helped us find a lampshade that complemented the style of the pot and didn’t overpower its stout frame. With over 60 years of experience creating lamp solutions, Naomi’s knows their stuff. We love how it turned out!

Cool Local Find: Namuh Design

We met Eric, Joe and Scott, designers at Namuh, at the recent Serving Up Style event and it turns out they are our neighbors!

Namuh is a lighting company with a distinct product line of chandeliers, pendants, portable luminaries and other alternative lighting. They also specialize in custom light fixtures and light branding. We stopped in to see some of their creative work; two of our favorites are “The Medusa Chandelier"and "The Classy Chandelier."

Along with producing quality and original work, Namuh strives to stay sustainably minded and support local. They design products that have minimal impact on the planet, and leave a long impression. We think Namuh is a great new company and look forward to working with them on future projects.

Solution of the Week: Library Makeover

To create a more pleasant space for our clients to study and read, we changed the light fixtures and added layers of lighting. The new lighting is soft, but powerful enough to illuminate the whole library. Brighter accent fixtures light the bookshelves.

The walnut cabinetry was custom built for this library. It creates more places to shelve books while lending to greater organization, which makes the library feel larger and less cluttered.

Solution of the Week: Lighting perspective
I absolutely love this photo! Valerie what are you doing down there?!
In order to get the a more real perspective and distance from the light fixture, Jim, our Cascade Lighting rep, has decided to take the daredevil approach by standing on a table, while Valerie has taken the safer approach by sitting on the floor. Oh, the compromising positions we put ourselves in for our clients and design!
