As incandescent lighting continues to diminish, the creative use of LEDs requires a new approach to residential lighting.

Bring your questions for the Q & A after the presentation.

Rod Jean Is the Business Development Manager for Hafele USA NY for Lighting in the Metro NY area. He works with the A&D community to assist in specifying lighting for their projects.
Charles Pavarini III’s design style has evolved into a highly poetic blend of traditional and contemporary design elements, carefully developed from a strong interior concept. All of his project’s hinge around a powerful central design theme and maintain a certain ‘vision’ which is always dramatically executed given Charles’ keen sense of color, style, and use of lighting as a ‘design tool’. He has a refined approach to interior design, always staged with strong focal points and exacting lighting technique to harness the artistic and architectural vernacular of the spaces he designs.
Charles is the recipient of 33 design awards Including the IFDA Circle of Excellence for Interiors.
His new book with Co-authors Charles Pavarini III, Mervyn Kaufman, & J. Randall Tarasuk, Lighting Beyond Edison: Brilliant Residential Lighting Techniques in the Age of LEDs is structured to be a comprehensive guide for everyone from consumers to designers and building-industry pros.
