[/av_textblock]

[av_textblock size=” font_color=” color=”]

Light is a key to understanding space. We understand how light can be used to enhance space, highlight special architectural features, provide adequate quantities of light, and generally make spaces feel good. Proper designed lighting can make small spaces feel larger and larger spaces more intimate. Our lighting solutions in religious spaces increase the perception of faith and spirituality.

crowelldesign-slash Process

[/av_textblock]

[av_textblock size=” font_color=” color=”]

Lighting Design is a linear process. Conversation occurs about what the needs are in each space and those requirements are translated into lighting recommendations. The process includes an initial meeting, a drawing phase, product recommendations, budget and installation cost considerations, and ultimately contractor and construction coordination.

[av_textblock size=” font_color=” color=”]

Jim Crowell, principal, provides his experience and expertise to every project small or large. He is present and responsible for every lighting installation and is eager to share his knowledge with anyone who appreciates good design.   The world of lighting is evolving every year with new technology, both in fixtures and bulbs, particularly LED. Jim travels the world to attend and review lighting exhibits and conferences, exploring trade shows to discover new ideas, designs, and technology that could give each new project personality and interest. We like to think “out of the box” to achieve the best lighting solution for an affordable cost.
