Day of Lighting

We visited the three lighting stores our designer had suggested. The two located in our local area were tiny and did not have much on display. One of them was distinctly modern in its tastes so while it was amusing to browse that store, the lighting fixtures did not suite our tastes.

We went to one in RWC and it was more of what I thought a lighting store would be like - large, spacious, lights everywhere. They had a this gigantic round light made of small pieces of crystal or glass and relied on light dispersion to change colors. So it was a different color depending on where you stood in relation to it. Very cool. There was a salesman (Neil) there that clearly knew lighting and was very helpful since we are completely clueless about lighting. We took note of the lights that we liked so we could show our designer. We'll probably end up bringing her to the lighting store with us.
