A little special something drops into the inbox this morning, from that doyen of video- and song-making: Drew Warner of Moonstruck Films in full Drew Crow Star alterego mode, presents THIS IS FOR YOU, DREW!

Probably not the best way to describe a client, but this is an unusual week, with me spending a couple of days staying with a client in their home. We're discussing All Things Lighting because this is a house that will be a long term project and not one that fits comfortably into a lighting designer's idea of project scheduling. I'm here to TEACH (and do a bit of proper design at the same time).
I have the opportunity to talk about anything and everything that might be relevant - to move the furniture around and criticise the artwork, or at least it's placing around the walls. Good fun!

A (very) basic guide to ethical specification
Lighting design: it's a client thing
Calculating obtrusive light: whose job is it?
When there's nothing in the catalogue
When is a chandelier not a pendant? When its a lantern!
When clients learn too much . . .
One of our details is missing
Where will light fittings come from?
The end of the light bulb?
Always something new . . . again
Always something new . . .
Combining old and new
On being in the dark . . .
Riffing The Internet of Things
