By: Alicia Hall, Strategic Communications Intern for Nest with the Nelsons
Lighting ties the look of a room together. Without it, your beautiful home design can’t be elevated to its maximum potential. It’s like glazing to clay, the paint to canvas, the cherry on top, and your source of convenience to get you through the day! Balanced lighting that brings depth to a space will maximize its impact.
