Light Know-How

Stephen is a firm believer in the power of lighting in creating a welcoming environment. His background in film taught him to be creative with resources and also how lighting is the final layer in any room design -- one that truly brings the room to life in the way it deserves.

"I love this space because it's inviting, it's comfortable, but at the same time, it's open and airy despite the darker and bulkier pieces of furniture. The natural light and flow of the furnishings keeps it light."

In looking at houses, I have always stayed away from split levels, mainly because of the living rooms, but this is a living room I would feel very comfortable and cozy in. Great job!
