Besides just having light, light layering (having multiple light sources for different purposes) is the most important, all-encompassing rule in home lighting design.

I recently ran across a post on Image via Freshome.com

That’s not just one, not two, but five different light sources, not counting the ample ambient light coming in from the windows. You have under cabinet lights on the left, recessed accent lights on the back wall, a pendant light, a table lamp, and linear accent lights atop the window.

On the other side of the room, there are just as many layers:

So there you have it. The most universal rule in residential lighting design, and a few ways to make it your own. What’s your favorite light layer in this space?

How secure is your property? Whether you own a home and/or run a business chances are that you want to keep your property as invulnerable as possible. It may not be possible to prevent all events that bring your property harm, but a Newton, MA alarm system will certainly reduce your risks!

Home and business security is something we take very seriously. Not only do we want to ensure the protection of your investments, but also the safety of your family or your employees. Burglar alarm systems can help deter break-ins, give you a peace of mind, and even reduce your property insurance costs.

Burglar alarm monitoring helps increase the security of your entire property. For businesses, this means your valuables, employees, customers, general property, and inventory. For homes the cost is even greater—alarm monitoring helps protect your family, pets, valuables, and your home in general.

The greatest benefit of monitoring is that law enforcement can and will be notified right away in the event of a break-in. In commercial settings, you have product options to choose from that allow this same type of response even during business hours. Wireless options allow you to get in touch with a security professional right away in the event of an emergency.

An alarm system, particularly security automation systems, can only work as well as they need to if they are professionally installed and serviced. We understand how legitimate of a concern home and commercial safety are, and that encountering problems with your security system can be detrimental.

If you are experiencing “false alarms” or are afraid that your security system isn’t working for some reason, give us a call right away. We want you to be able to rest assured that your property is safe and protected.
