  • Much of the natural light we love so much is textured. So why is it when we light our homes and offices we want flat, even and boring light. #lighting #lightstagram

I love fancy lighting tools, even if I don’t own many.

    Chandelier from Hilden & Diaz that projects 360 degrees of shadows and roots. More at this is Colossal.

    This is an absolutely amazing chandelier. I love the texture it creates…

    I’m loving this piece by Jonathan Latiano titled, “With Fond Regards from the Holecene Epoch.”  The angled light resembles a plummeting commet thirsting for contact, or death.

  • If you’re interested in Lighting at all, take 5 minutes and donate to JimOnLight.com

    I’ve been blogging, tweeting and tumbling about lighting design for a long time now and ever since I started there’s always been one blog I admired. That’s JimOnLight. From talking about the latest in gear to amazing lighting facts and phenomena to of course the Sunday Flickr post Jim is always sharing the best/coolest/most interesting stuff in the industry. It’s also important to note, no other industry blogger is more passionate about safety.

    As Jim transitions to working on the site full time he’s looking for a little help from his friends to cover server space, maintenance and content creation. 

    If you’re at all passionate about light and lighting, donate a few bucks and help keep the site a place for people passionate about light to learn and share.
