An architectural lighting design studio that simplifies the complexities of lighting

Our lighting design capabilities have grown from a single designer, hired in 2000, to a full architectural design studio, operating as RL Studio. Our experience on the logistics and procurement side of large complex projects and our consultative and transparent approach is what sets our team apart.

Eliminate value engineering

Our goal is to eliminate the value engineering process by providing design solutions that are available on schedule and on budget from the start. Our lighting designers look for the right opportunities to use cost efficient fixtures while finding strategic places for high-impact fixtures so your architectural aesthetics are highlighted and preserved with a budget-conscious lighting package.

Stop project delays

Our team has managed the lighting supply for countless new construction projects. This has taught us what to look for in fixture schedules, plans, and local codes that can turn into RFIs and delays that waste your time. We’ll stick with a project through the end to answer any lighting questions that come up, allowing you to focus on more important things.
