Our Lighting Studio

Passionate designers, innovative solutions, and a commitment to illuminating spaces with purpose and beauty.

Our Story

Founded in 2008 by Kenneth Williamson, JLD Lighting Design began as a boutique consultancy focused on residential projects in the Lake Tahoe region. What started as a passion for creating perfect ambient lighting quickly grew into one of the most respected lighting design firms serving clients nationwide.

Our journey has been defined by countless projects where lighting transformed ordinary spaces into extraordinary experiences. From intimate home environments to large-scale commercial installations, we've learned that great lighting design is about understanding how people live, work, and feel in their spaces.

Today, JLD Lighting Design combines cutting-edge technology with timeless design principles. Our team of certified lighting designers, electrical engineers, and project managers work collaboratively to deliver solutions that are both innovative and practical, energy-efficient and beautiful.

We believe that exceptional lighting design should be accessible to everyone, which is why we offer comprehensive services from initial consultation to final installation, ensuring every project receives the attention and expertise it deserves.
