What to look for: “Quality is the one feature I wouldn’t do without. To me, a lamp is as much an object as much as it is a light source. The features are specific to need. A task lamp has a completely different program then a pendant has. It seems a shame to not buy the light you want because it doesn’t have a sliding floor dimmer.”
Dining rooms: “Pendants centered on your table top works well. You want your tabletop to glow and your food well lit. But when it’s time to sit together around a table, the space between the people is the most important. The rest of the room can darken beyond the circle of participants.”
Reading light: “I read to a 25-watt sconce that is attached tight to the wall near the corner of the headboard. That way you get a lot of additional light from the wall and you aren’t blinding whoever is in bed with you—partner, child, dog…”
Picking a bulb: “I suggest experimenting, playing around with different options. Most bulbs look different in an incredibly subtle way. For the light bulbs in my Tribeca showroom, I bought several different brands before finally finding the one that had the tint that was perfect. I’ve recently been excited about how LED bulbs are becoming more refined in their design, less clunky.”
