LEDs Have Things Looking Up for Downlights
Look up in most U.S. kitchens and you’ll likely see recessed downlights
shining back at you. These fixtures have been the go-to option for
decades – not just in kitchens, but throughout the house – for providing
area lighting that doesn’t interrupt a ceiling’s clean lines

Shedding Some Light on Full-Spectrum LEDs
As someone who’s tracked LED lighting since its early days as a
commercially available technology, my own experience with the products
has evolved. I live in an older house with overhead lighting only in the
kitchen and bathrooms, so this has mostly meant experimenting with LED
bulbs (or “lamps,” in lighting designer lingo) in the 14 or 15 table
fixtures scattered around my home.
