Everyday Elegance

You do you

Style is a matter of interpretation

Whether you find inspiration through world travels, in your own garden, or somewhere in between, your home is a reflection of your personality, style, priorities, and experiences.

While size and shape are obvious deciding factors for any fixture, it's the finish and use of materials that bring the design together for the perfect presentation. A popular trend in lighting fixtures today is the use of luxury materials such as alabaster and glass that not only illuminate but also reflect light to captivate a certain mood.

To see the newest styles and innovations in lighting, stop by your local ALA-member showroom or go online to ALALighting.com.

By incorporating the geometry of inspirational architecture, talented lighting designers and manufacturers have elevated the choices for homeowners looking for statement pieces to command and define their homes with sophistication and livable elegance.
