SERVICES

We believe good lighting is the best supporting actor to a well-designed space... and it doesn't happen by accident.

 

Each project is thoughtfully curated and executed with the utmost detail from concept through completion.  When we are involved at the beginning of the project, we can work together with the design team to seamlessly weave the lighting into the overall design based on the architectural aesthetic, the function of the space, and the client's preferences.

 

We serve clients nationwide and are ready to help you enhance your everyday with exceptional lighting.

“Prior to the renovation of my kitchen, cooking was challenging - in truth, there was very little functional light at all. With Kiersten’s designs, now each work space is well illuminated and once again food preparation has become a joy!  Her contribution to the overall renovation project was very valuable."
- Client, Park Ridge, IL

"I highly recommend Hoiland Studios for your next lighting project.  Kiersten is incredibly knowledgeable and creatively talented at what she does. As an Interior Designer, having Kiersten as a resource has been invaluable to my business.  Lighting is a tricky component to a design project and having an expert like Kiersten helps to create a beautiful outcome.  She is well versed in both commercial and residential projects, as well as lighting art collections.  She’s able to create customizable lighting solutions for projects of any size and budget.  Kiersten is so personable and cares about her clients tremendously.  She also generously gives her time back to the design community by helping lead workshops on lighting design for NCIDQ candidates.  She is a pleasure to know and truly a great designer."
