In this blog posting, I’d like to talk a little about how interior design professionals now use more environmentally friendly

illumination options. Lighting continues to be a major electricity draw in most London residences, and the latest high-tech ultra-bright energy-efficient lightbulbs can be a great solution. However, when these bulbs first came out the London interior design community was initially horrified at the effect that these new colder lighting solutions were having on our incandescent-envisioned designs. My answer today is to use dimmers wherever possible. By controlling the levels of illumination for different dayparts, the interior design scheme can still look its best. Even so, we often encourage our exacting London clients to splurge on just one or two tungsten table lightbulbs to cast a healthy glow onto the faces of their after-dinner guests!
