Lighting planned as a scheme rather than a row of holes in the ceiling. Circuits, zones and dimming worked out before anything is cut.

Who this is for. Anyone renovating, extending, or living with a room that has one pendant in the middle of the ceiling doing all the work.
A grid of downlights spaced evenly across a ceiling lights the floor and nothing else. Good lighting has layers: general light, task light where you actually work, and accent light on the things worth looking at.
We plan the positions against how the room is used and how the furniture sits, split it across circuits so you can have one room behave several ways, and specify dimming that actually works with the fittings rather than buzzing at 40 percent.
Furniture, worktops, the things worth lighting.
Positions, circuits, switching and dimming agreed before a hole is cut.
Cable routes planned around joists and voids rather than through them.
Dimming levels set with you, then certified.
Usually yes. Lighting circuits can often be reworked on their own, particularly with accessible loft space or suspended floors above.
Not if the driver and the dimmer are matched, which is where nearly all flicker comes from. We specify them together.
We can, or you can. If you are buying your own, send us the spec before you order and we will tell you whether it will do what you want.
Fewer than most people are sold. A well planned room uses layers rather than quantity.
