Whether you are about to get the keys to your new home or about to embark on a makeover of your existing home, do consider the essential elements (ie: lighting, furniture, flooring and paint colours) and make a shortlist of the products that you want to get. Most often the bulky items such as furniture and lights are not stocked in large quantities by retailers due to warehouse cost, staff cost and risk of carrying obsolete inventory.

Hence if you have been to the lighting shops at Jalan Besar, Balestier Road or the bustling Geylang Lorongs, you will find that the range is constrained by the shop space and their focus is more towards downlights, chandeliers, led strips and ceiling fans. 

For those who wish to inject some character into your space, finding the right lighting is one of the best ways to begin. At Lights&Co, we carry a wide range of lightings so that you will be spoilt for choice. It can begin from the simple ceiling light or track light to the hundreds of pendant light designs. Plan your renovation journey early and yes you can request for the lights to be delivered at a later time if required. 

:::INDUSTRIAL LIGHTINGS:::

We typically associate industrial lightings with dark colours. However you can still blend in industrial lights with a simple scandinavian theme. Choosing softer industrial designs such as track lights or pendant lights can help you achieve that. 

:::MODERN LIGHTINGS:::

Modern lightings have to keep up with trends to meet the fast changing demands of consumers. It is the theme that urban dwellers usually go for as they seek the same fast-paced lifestyle they are used to. 

:::SCANDINAVIAN LIGHTINGS:::

The calmness of a scandinavian home exudes the peace and inner serenity that homeowners look for after a tiring day.  

Lightings are the most essential in a home as without them, you won't get to see anything at all. But that's not all, lightings set the ambience, mood and theme in your living space as well. In Singapore, the most common go to places for lights are often stretches along Balestier, Jalan Besar or Geylang. However more often than not, you find yourself perspiring while trying to cover as many lighting shops as possible to find creative and innovative lighting inspirations. All the shops sell similar lightings although some carry a wider range of designs. But the question is how do you know you got the best deal for yourself? The answer is you won't get to know it unless you have been to all the shops to compare the prices. 

Pushy sales persons

Chances are when you enter a lighting shop, you might end up buying a way overpriced item. Competition is strife in these areas as most sales persons get a commission for selling you a product. They tend to give you a "good" discount on their heavily marked up prices and you do feel compelled to get something afterwards.

Shop around 

Yup we know there are so many lighting shops to choose from so how do you narrow down your selection? The answer is to do your homework online, research and sieve out those shops that have the most complaints. Some shops give commissions to the interior designers and contractors and such costs are passed on to the consumers. Of course the IDs and contractors are the ones who are ultimately responsible for the outcome of your place hence there is a lingering obligation to go along with their suggestions. 

Warranty

Most lights come with no warranty or limited warranty. Make sure you check with the shops before you commit to the purchase. You usually get 6 months warranty on LED track lights and down lights. 

Price

If you walk into a lighting shop, you will find prices attached to their products but do take note that the prices stated are before you enquire further or ask for discounts. Hence if you do not bargain hard, be prepared to pay a high price for your lights. If possible, narrow down your selections early so you can compare the prices easily. Right here at Lights&Co., we not only offer transparent pricing but also the best value on our products. As we operate online, there are no hefty rental costs or sales commissions to pay, hence the savings are passed on directly to you. Notwithstanding that, most of our products are backed with warranty to assure you that you are getting a quality product from us. Shop our entire range of collections at www.lightsandco.com/collections/all-lightings-collection
