Commercial Spaces, Parks & Attractions Betty Leave a Comment on Angle Shades Shine for Fenway Park’s Centennial Celebration

angle_shades_exterior_sign_lighting-300x229.jpgThis week kicks off the 100th anniversary celebration of Boston’s beloved Fenway Park. The home opener is tomorrow and next week the team will mark the anniversary of Fenway’s opening on April 20, 1912 when they play American League rivals the New York Yankees. After last year’s historic meltdown, Sox fans are hoping that their Beantown Boys can recreate the magic of the inaugural season at Fenway when the Sox won 105 games and went on to win the World Series.

Vintage Emblem Shades Move From Gridiron to Gourmet Valet

Commercial Spaces, Restaurants, Bars, & Breweries Betty L Leave a Comment on Vintage Emblem Shades Move From Gridiron to Gourmet Valet

You really want to try that new vegan restaurant downtown but it’s Sunday night and pouring rain. Who wants to go out in that? But there’s nothing in the fridge, so what do you do? You call Valet Gourmet if you’re lucky enough to live in western North Carolina. The nine-year-old company that began with 13 partner restaurants and a staff of only 3 people has grown to more than 25 staff that arranges delivery from more than 75 Asheville area restaurants. At the nerve center of Valet Gourmet, orders come flying in and drivers go rushing out all under the watchful glow of some vintage lights that once lit up Friday night football games at a nearby stadium.

Commercial Spaces, Event Venues Betty L Leave a Comment on Bold Angle Shades Draw Many to Cooperative Art Gallery

gooseneck_angle_shade_exterior_lighting1-300x291.jpgThe Sourwood Gallery, located in Black Mountain, North Carolina, is a cooperative venture full of creativeness both inside and out. Inside you’ll find paintings, pottery, sculpture, jewelry, turned wood, photography, stained glass, and other examples of fine art. And though the artisans could have focused soley on their own work, they didn’t neglect the outside of the old brick downtown building. Highlighting the sky blue Sourwood Gallery sign and awning are bold and bright red angle shade lights that draw attention from two blocks away. These gooseneck angle shades, much like our Angle Shade Gooseneck Sign Lighting, project from the rooftop out and down to highlight the sign and awning. Read More »

Gooseneck Lighting Offers Flexibility, Style with Arm Options

How-To, Lighting 101 Betty L Leave a Comment on Gooseneck Lighting Offers Flexibility, Style with Arm Options

One of the reasons gooseneck lighting has been around for so many years is because of its classic American style and the flexibility it offers someone trying to solve a lighting dilemma. Let’s face it, unless you’re starting from scratch and can position the junction box and wiring exactly where you need it, the times when you have the perfect space for a light are few and far between. Gooseneck arms allow you to place your new light in the best position within your space with ease. If your wall space is hindered by an overhang, a gooseneck arm can take your shade out, and then up, to position your light higher than its placement on the wall. Need more light on your business sign? An angle shade can project out and around for the perfect slant on signs, landscaping, or awnings. Read More »

You drive by the empty lot without even noticing it, then all of a sudden earth moving equipment roars in and the ground is leveled. The excitement builds week after week as you wonder what the new business will be! Bricks are laid, awnings are hung, and even gooseneck barn lights find a place on the new facade. Finally, the sign goes up…another new tire store. Well, we might not get so excited about tires, but the gooseneck lighting on the exterior of the business is definitely worth a second look.
