Light Your Homes with Eco-friendly Lighting Designs

One thing that is for sure, eco-friendly practices and ideas will have their way as far as enhancing the normal homes we live in today. We often look at the contemporary and modern designs today and aspire to have them as part of our dream homes later one. But while we are pondering on that fact, it would be great to consider as well that eco-friendly standards are also in play.
What’s lighting’s hottest trend? LED, baby. As every new Dallas restaurant seems to have discovered, the versatile light-emitting diode is cool-burning, green-friendly (lasting up to 50,000 hours) and available in more colors than a box of Skittles. We even found LED “tape” that can be trimmed to fit. Compact fluorescents and halogens round out the offerings.
As for fixtures, Rutledge says we’ve been “bronzed to death” and that aged brass with its “rich, deep patina” is coming next; he also sees us swapping out our satin nickel for shiny chrome.
