Lighting

Light Fixtures

• Chandeliers & pendants — Focal point lighting over islands, dining areas, or entryways; available in countless styles from modern to rustic
• Semi-flush & flush mounts — Ceiling-hugging fixtures ideal for lower ceilings; provide general ambient light
• Under-cabinet lighting — Illuminates countertops for task lighting; hardwired or plug-in options
• Sconces — Wall-mounted accent or task lighting, great for flanking mirrors or artwork
• Track lighting — Adjustable heads on a single track; flexible for kitchens, galleries, or accent lighting

Recessed (Can) Lighting

• Standard recessed cans — Traditional housing with a separate trim ring; requires more ceiling depth
• Wafer/slim recessed lights — Ultra-thin profile, no housing box needed; ideal for shallow ceilings or retrofits
• Gimbal/adjustable recessed — Tilts to direct light toward a specific area or feature
• Spacing rule of thumb — Divide ceiling height by 2 for spacing (e.g., 8 ft ceiling = 4 ft apart)
• Wet vs. dry rated — Use wet-rated fixtures in showers or exterior soffits; damp-rated for bathrooms and covered patios
