Lighting consultation

Tuukka Remes and Esko Väisänen stand in the Tammisto lighting store

Over 30 years of practical experience in lighting, electricity and implementation.

A lighting consultation is for you when:

  • Lighting is missing, haphazard, or does not serve everyday life or the use of the space
  • You want functional and well-considered lighting, but you don't want to spend time on endless research.
  • You want to get your lighting fixed all at once

In the consultation, we emphasize domestic luminaires, repairability, and solutions tailored to your needs.

The service is equally suitable for homes, workplaces and commercial spaces – situations where lighting needs clarity, functionality or an update.

What is the lighting consultation based on?

In lighting consultation, we look for functional and creative solutions to the challenges of the space, where aesthetics and practicality go hand in hand.

Our lighting design is based on practical experience in the field. We have over 30 years of experience in lighting installation, repair and modification work, as well as small electrical work. This means that solutions are always considered from the perspective of feasibility, safety and sustainability.

Creative solutions are supported by an interior design degree and design work is supported by expertise in surface treatment and construction. Light is considered both technically and through spatial and interior design as part of a whole, not as separate products.

What is specifically considered in a lighting consultation?

1. Space as a visual whole

We look at the space like a picture:

  • how colors, shapes and proportions are arranged
  • which elements are the focus and which ones are distracting
  • What should be kept in the space and what should be kept quiet?

We utilize color theory, spatial rhythm, and proportions (such as the principles of the golden ratio) in the placement and emphasis of lighting.

2. The need and use of light

Let's go through what lighting is really needed in different situations:

  • Is the general lighting sufficient and uniform?
  • Is the amount of light correct or are there glare or dark areas?
  • Are there shadows that need to be softened or cut?
  • Does mood lighting work separately from general lighting?
  • Has the spotlight been used correctly?
  • Do I need a separate work light, reading light or plant light?
  • Do we want to highlight a detail or area?

Often the problem is not just the number of lights, but their placement, orientation or control.

3. Solutions as part of a whole

Solutions are always considered as a whole, not as individual products.

In practice, this can mean, for example:

  • maintenance, repair or modification of existing lighting fixtures
  • adding or moving individual lights
  • control of light sources and tones
  • clarifying guidance

We also consider smart lighting and smart home solutions as needed. We have the expertise and agreements to implement smart lighting, and we have chosen Osram as a partner because of its wide and reliable range. Smart solutions are not an intrinsic value, but a tool when they support the use of space and everyday life.

The color of the light and the material choices create softness and atmosphere.

Repairability and feasibility

During the consultation we always assess:

  • what can be fixed
  • What should you update?
  • What is reasonable to change?

We have direct connections to spare parts from the lighting manufacturers we represent and we actively collaborate with several domestic operators on repairs. This enables solutions where the old lighting fixture can continue its life as part of a functioning whole.

A clear process and a well-considered outcome

After the home visit, we will compile our findings and solutions into a clear written package. You will receive a roadmap and an offer, based on which you can proceed at your own pace.

If necessary, we also take care of the implementation:

  • about the purchase and installation of lighting fixtures
  • necessary minor electrical, modification and repair work

The goal is not always a major change, but lighting that works in practice and feels natural as a part of the space – whether it's a home, office or other work environment.

Lighting says a lot about a space. When it's well thought out and well executed, you don't have to think about it – it's a natural part of the space.
