How does lighting fit into any project? According to Michelle Pinales of Michelle Pinales Design, lighting is an essential, functional requirement needed for any space. However, as interior design professionals understand, it offers bountiful benefits beyond that.
Lighting has the biggest impact of any design element per square foot that it takes up on a project. And, while it provides illumination for wayfinding and necessary items, it can make or break a space with the impression it leaves on guests."

The Lighting • Foundry Family
Hinkley’s Foundry fixtures offered the style, shade finish, and scale Michelle desired to emphasize the outdoor patio and bar area as a destination, offering a unique and vibrant atmosphere.
SHADE FINISH
Foundry’s sturdy aluminum shade features knurled brass details to offset a Gloss White finish, while casting a uniform light. Michelle says she was delighted to find an outdoor fixture available in a finish option beyond Chrome or Stainless steel.
“Outdoor lighting doesn’t have to look so utilitarian,” she said. “The fact the Foundry fixtures offered a powder-coated White finish and had a gold metallic element was huge.”

Foundry’s simple, understated form features a vintage aesthetic while contributing to the patio’s overall design.
