GOING THE EXTRA MILES
I

think we can all agree that lighting and outdoor living design are two
of the most overarching movements in the kitchen and bath industry
at the moment. Yet these two categories are not always a specialty - or
niche - for designers.
To be competitive in our market, it's important to educate yourselves
and stay up to date on the most desired and important elements in
today's homes. Some straightforward but maybe not obvious ways in which
to do so include attending trade shows, learning from tradespeople and
contractors with specialty expertise and reading up on the latest industry
reports and other publications.
I started writing - and learning - about lighting design during my fi rst
real job out of college as an editor for a retail design publication. It was
overwhelming all those years ago, what with learning about such things as
proper color rendering and kelvin ratings. Fast-forward to today, and you
can include color temperature, setting moods, dimmable options and lumen
measurements - among many other lighting considerations.
Th e bottom line is that with the necessary knowledge, you can make
your clients' projects successful by creating a proper lighting plan for their
kitchens and baths. Without those extra steps, you can kiss their referral
goodbye, assuming they will have to call an expert to improve their illumination
after you have " fi nished " the job.
Th ese extra steps apply to all areas of design, including outdoor living;

in traction, and you are missing the boat if you

available educational opportunities, and don't be
