Welcome to Brilliant Living. Light is one of the most powerful elements in interior design—it doesn’t just illuminate a space; it shapes its mood, function, and energy. The right lighting can make a room feel expansive or intimate, energizing or calming, luxurious or minimal. At Facets by JèM, I design with intentionality, ensuring that light works in harmony with color, texture, and purpose to create an environment that uplifts and inspires.


How Light Transforms a Space

Lighting isn’t just about brightness—it’s about balance. Whether it’s natural sunlight streaming through a window, the soft glow of a lamp, or the dramatic effect of accent lighting, the way light interacts with a space determines how we experience it.


Here’s how I use light to elevate design and well-being:


1. Natural Light: The Ultimate Mood Booster

Sunlight is nature’s best designer. It enhances colors, improves well-being, and creates a dynamic atmosphere throughout the day. A room bathed in natural light feels open, airy, and inviting. I strategically position furniture, mirrors, and reflective surfaces to maximize daylight, ensuring that a space feels energizing and connected to nature.

2. Ambient Lighting: Setting the Tone

Ambient lighting creates a soft, overall glow that determines a room’s mood. Whether it’s warm, diffused lighting for a cozy retreat or bright, even lighting for a functional workspace, I layer lighting sources to craft an atmosphere that complements both function and feeling.

3. Task Lighting: Focused and Functional

From reading nooks to kitchen prep areas, task lighting enhances usability without overpowering a space. Adjustable desk lamps, under-cabinet lighting, and well-placed pendant lights create purpose-driven illumination, ensuring that every detail is seen while maintaining comfort.

4. Accent Lighting: Elevating Art and Architecture

Want to add drama and depth to a space? Accent lighting highlights artwork, textures, and architectural details—whether it’s a spotlight on a custom painting, LED strips enhancing a feature wall, or sconces creating soft, artistic shadows. This strategic lighting technique brings out the brilliance in every design element.
