Recessed Lighting Spacing: A Room-by-Room Guide

Planning Your Recessed Lighting Layout

Recessed lighting planning requires more than picking fixtures and hoping for the best. The difference between properly spaced LED recessed lighting and a poorly planned recessed lighting design shows up immediately: dark corners, spotlight effects on walls, or excessive glare from too-bright fixtures placed too close together. Whether you’re planning a kitchen recessed lighting layout or determining bathroom recessed lighting placement, the calculations matter for accurate recessed lighting spacing.

Lutron Satin Finishes: 20 Colors for Designer Light Switches

Light switches used to be an afterthought, just boring white or beige rectangles. But in well-designed spaces today, designer light switches are chosen with the same care as cabinet hardware or plumbing fixtures. Whether you’re working on a renovation or finally replacing those builder-grade almond switches from 1997, the finishes matter more than you’d think. The problem? Most manufacturers offer maybe 3-4 colors, and finding modern light switches in finishes that actually match your vision can be frustrating.

Experience the spectrum of color! Help your clients complement every room in their home with modern light switches, luxury light switches, designer dimmers and keypads from Lutron’s satin finish collection. At PROLIGHTING, we carry all 20 of the Lutron’s satin finishes in product families including Diva, Sunnata, Claro accessories and more. Coordinate, accent, or blend lighting controls with decor. Designers will enjoy enhanced freedom with this re-imagined palette that includes colors like ‘Cobblestone’ and ‘Pumice’.

Enhance Your Space with an LED Track System from Nora Lighting

Track Lighting has undergone many change since bursting onto the commercial lighting scene in the 1960’s. Initially used in retail settings where the unique design helped stores highlight displays and racks, today’s modern track lighting is geared toward sleeker, smaller fixtures that are much less noticeable. Track lighting is excellent for its flexibility and can provide ambient, task or accent lighting at an affordable price. Track lighting allows you to move, swivel, rotate and aim the individual fixtures or “heads” in any direction along the track, giving you the versatility to change up lighting schemes according to your needs. Some track systems even allow you to add-on pendant lights with special attachments.
