Modern Lighting Makers

If there’s one décor that can instantly change the look of a room, it’s lighting. Whether you’re adding visual interest to a room with a nice focus, or trying to divide a room without putting up walls, a little carefully placed lighting can go a long way. From setting your mood to creating a stir, from helping you read better to improving your mood, there is a light for virtually every purpose.

Today we’re taking a look at ten of our favorite lighting artisans and manufacturers, each of which is changing the way we think about this age-old concept.
