Lighting Design: Where It All Begins

Good lighting starts with good design. Our lighting designers consider the architecture of yourhome, how you use each space, and the mood you want to create. We think about layers oflight: Ambient lighting for general illumination, task lighting for activities like cooking or reading,and accent lighting to highlight art, textures, or architectural features.

Instead of relying on a single overhead fixture, we design a balanced lighting plan that gives youflexibility. Do you want to host a dinner party? Then brighten the dining room and set a warmglow in the living area. Are you having friends over for a movie night? Dim all the lights downexcept for subtle perimeter lighting.

A thoughtful lighting design means your home always looks and feels its best.

Linear Lighting: Sleek, Modern, and Versatile

One of the most popular trends in home lighting right now is linear lighting. These are slim,low-profile fixtures — often LED strips — that can be tucked under cabinets, along staircases,behind crown molding, or even recessed into the ceiling.

Linear lighting is perfect for creating indirect, ambient light that feels modern and sophisticated.It can add a soft glow to your kitchen countertops, outline your home theater for a cinematiceffect, or bring a touch of drama to architectural features like floating shelves or wall panels.

At Phantom, we offer high-quality linear lighting systems that are energy-efficient, long-lasting,and fully customizable to your home’s style and layout.

Downlights: The Clean, Classic Choice

Sometimes, less really is more. Downlights (often called recessed lighting) provide clean, evenillumination without the visual clutter of hanging fixtures. They work beautifully in living rooms,kitchens, hallways, and bathrooms. They’re also perfect for creating a bright, airy feel in yourhome.

Modern downlights are far more efficient and versatile than older recessed fixtures. Phantomcan install dimmable LED downlights with adjustable beams, giving you precise control over howyour space is lit. And with today’s technology, they come in a variety of trims and finishes tomatch your décor.

Control at Your Fingertips with Lighting Automation

Lighting automation is one of the most exciting advancements in home technology. Imaginepressing a single button to set every light in your home to the perfect brightness. Or having yourlights adjust automatically based on the time of day.

With smart lighting control systems, you can:

• Create custom lighting “scenes” for different activities such as entertaining, relaxing,cooking or bedtime.
• Control lights remotely from your phone or tablet.
• Set schedules so lights turn on and off automatically.
• Integrate lighting with other smart home features like shades, music, and security

Not only does lighting automation make your home more convenient, it can also improveenergy efficiency and enhance security when you’re away.

The Benefits of Upgrading Your Lighting

If your home still has outdated fixtures or older bulbs, upgrading your lighting can make a hugedifference. New lighting technology offers:

• Better energy efficiency with modern LED fixtures.
• Longer lifespan so you replace bulbs less often.
