Not long-ago Daniel Builders wrapped up a $1.7M home remodel of a Simpsonville, SC residence. As you might expect, the lighting fixtures were quite impressive!
The Gallery of Lighting in Greenville, SC was one of the lighting suppliers for this project. We recently spoke with Krystal Lord from the Gallery of Lighting about her role in the renovation process. From selection to installation, Lighting Specialists like Krystal help “illuminate” the path forward. When asked to comment on the remodel, here’s what Gallery of Lighting had to say:
“It’s clear this homeowner had a vision for their home, and a sense of the importance that quality finishes and construction would play in making that vision come to life.”
This project’s interior designer, Carol D’Cruz of D’Cruz Design explained the “why” behind the lighting selections. “The light fixtures were all chosen for a modern aesthetic that incorporates natural materials. I combined iron, alabaster, nickel, marble, frosted glass, and silk to achieve a timeless yet current feel.”
Collin Amos from the Gallery of Lighting explained the role and priority of lighting during a remodel. “Lighting is just as important as any other detail in a home, so putting the same amount of effort into light fixtures as countertops, floors, etc. is paramount.” It all starts with “getting a plan on paper,” something her team is adept at doing.
Here’s a glimpse at a few lighting fixtures that went into this massive remodel.

Two brass Calliope LED vanity lights by Thomas O’Brien are located on each side of the mirror. These dimmable fixtures can be installed vertically or horizontally.
Height: 32.75″
Width: 3.75″

In terms of new technology and trends, the future is bright. According to Collin, “We’re seeing more and more in the way of LED mirrors in bathrooms. They contribute to a high end, spa-like feel in a space, and more lighting manufacturers are jumping on this trend and releasing their own designs. Key features to look for in a LED mirror are dimmability, color changing capability (warm to cool based on task at hand), and defogging features.”
