Gooseneck Lighting Offers Many Options for Commercial Businesses

Commercial Spaces, Retail Stores Betty L 1 Comment on Gooseneck Lighting Offers Many Options for Commercial Businesses

More and more commercial businesses are turning to the very flexible and oh.. so adaptable gooseneck lighting to highlight exterior features such as landscaping, signage, and awnings. Take this Ruby Tuesday restaurant for example which has selected a bold, black fixture much like our Angle Shade Gooseneck Light to bring attention to their signature awnings and corporate slogans printed there. Sign lights such as these are an excellent way not only to provide necessary lighting after dark but to add a stylish statement to your business decor and set your commercial venture apart from the myriad of others.

Commercial Lighting That Can Perform with Pizazz

You’re driving down the road and something red catches your eye. That pesky red hue that Sir Isaac Newton placed at the very beginning of the color spectrum when he first described it back in the 17th century grabs your attention every time. That’s why fire engines, stop signs, and certain poisonous critters bear the color red. It screams, “Look at me and pay attention!” It’s no wonder so many business use red in their exterior color schemes.

Warehouse Shades in Boston Cafe Add Nostalgic Touch to Decor

Commercial Spaces, Restaurants, Bars, & Breweries Betty L Leave a Comment on Warehouse Shades in Boston Cafe Add Nostalgic Touch to Decor

Just northwest of Boston, in the town of Somerville, lies a place that is reminiscent of a more well-known pub in Boston that brought us years of laughs and classic lines like “It’s a dog-eat-dog world and I’m wearing Milk Bone underwear.” At the Diesel Café, you’ll find plenty of friendly folks, pool tables, and even a vintage black-and-white photo booth that captures a lot of fun. We love the casual, inviting atmosphere of the place and in particular the collection of throwback memorabilia found throughout the space. The handsome barn pendant lights, very similar to our Universal Cord Hung Pendant, are a definite nod to the 1930s style of RLM-inspired warehouse shades that were popular at the time. The old gas pump standing guard near the pool tables is also apropos as this type of lighting was often spotted at gas stations in the 30s and 40s as well as in warehouses and factories.

It is so refreshing to see businesses trying something besides track lighting or fluorescent fixtures for their spaces. In recent blogs we’ve seen an airport store that featured rustic sconces, a winery with galvanized warehouse shades, and porcelain pendants for a southern BBQ joint. Today’s Featured Customer is retail giant Macy’s who opted for their own bold and beautiful porcelain shades in the form of Barn Light Electric’s Goodrich® Bomber to highlight the Ralph Lauren display at their Millenial Mall location in Orlando.

Rustic Galvanized Warehouse Shades Lend Country Feel to Business

Commercial Spaces, Restaurants, Bars, & Breweries Betty Leave a Comment on Rustic Galvanized Warehouse Shades Lend Country Feel to Business

One of the many ways a light fixture can be protected from rust and corrosion is with a galvanized finish. The earliest known example of the galvanizing of metal was found on 17th century Indian armor. Today, the galvanizing process involves coating steel with zinc which, under most conditions, has a greater resistance to corrosion than bare metal. Galvanizing has the added bonus of being low cost, easy to apply, and has a relatively long, maintenance-free life. All of which makes the galvanized finish on these gooseneck sign lights and gooseneck barn lights all the more desirable!

Porcelain Deep Bowl Pendants Bring Focused Light to Any Space

Commercial Spaces, Retail Stores Betty L Leave a Comment on Porcelain Deep Bowl Pendants Bring Focused Light to Any Space

Check out this sweet deep bowl pendant we spotted recently at the Lush store in the Orlando International Airport! Big, bold, and bright white porcelain! Nothing makes a statement quite like porcelain, and we love the focused light that a deep bowl pendant can bring to any surface. It’s a terrific choice not only for businesses looking to highlight their wares, but also for kitchen islands, workshops, and laundry rooms.
