Lighting & Electrical Plans

Lighting and electrical planning is more than just placing fixtures and outlets—it’s about creating a functional, beautiful, and intuitive home that works with the way you live. My Lighting & Electrical Plans service includes full reflected ceiling plans, decorative lighting layouts, and switching strategies so every room feels intentional and effortless.

I don’t just look at your plans from a technical perspective—I imagine walking through the home, flipping switches, and using each space in real life. This way, you never have to backtrack to turn off hallway lights, scramble for an outlet, or wonder if your decorative fixture will actually fit the space.

What You Get

  • Full reflected ceiling plan including ceiling details, fixture placement, and switching locations.

  • Decorative lighting layout using actual fixtures to scale, with exact hang heights for chandeliers, pendants, and sconces.

  • Task lighting optimization for areas like bathroom vanities, kitchen prep zones, laundry rooms, and home offices.

  • Switching design to ensure intuitive, convenient control throughout the home—no backtracking or awkward locations.

  • Outlet planning for every appliance and scenario, including USB outlets, floor outlets, and weatherproof outdoor receptacles.

  • Specialty outlet placement for TVs, wall chaises, holiday lighting, and more.
