JF: Almost all of our residential lighting projects have a downlighting component, and we always discuss selecting downlights with integral LEDs. These may have great features and a high-end look, but we always start with Soraa LED lamps and xtures simply because of their color and vio- let light emission — both of which are important to us from a color-rendering and health perspective.

JF: This house is very much about the art within the space, so the architecture is clean and almost museum-like. Our goal was to create a exible solution where artwork could be properly il- luminated on a wall, table, couch, chair...the list goes on. We wanted to make sure that each piece of art and furniture could “pop” and stand out while complementing the house’s clean architec- tural elements. These MR16 LED lamps helped us achieve that.
