Adding Lighting to Our Home Projects

February 25, 2008

Well my wife and I have been undergoing a few home projects this winter and we decided to upgrade the lighting in our powder room and master bath. Also, I’m in the beginning stages to finishing my basement and adding a theater room, bar and game area. It should be done in about three years! Ha!

Anyway, I’d like to share a web site that we found some of the light fixtures we decided to upgrade to.

In the powder room, a tiny one, approx 5′ x 3′ we ended up choosing a light that looked elegant but also was not too big for the small space. The light we both agreed on is the
Ansonia Collection by Kichler Lighting.

Now down in my basement where I am hoping some day to have a HD Projector displaying on a 96″ screen, a new bar and wine area and a seating area, we are going to need some decent lighting to make the basement an entertaining room in our home. Over the bar I’ve always liked accent lighting or pendant lighting, such as these lamps from the Olympia Collection of Kichler Lighting.

Once we get things ordered and setup, I’ll take a few pictures and update this post or ad a new one.
