Working with Melissa and the team at Lumiere has been a joy. Their passion for all things lighting, and the care and attention to detail applied when looking at the designs for my kitchen, from the plans right through to the execution has been incredible. Their knowledgable approach, and their willingness to encourage some out of the box thinking has resulted in a lighting scheme beyond my wildest dreams. They have consistently gone above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly, including sourcing additional, bespoke chain to utilise a light I loved, not originally designed for ceilings of this height.
Whether you’re looking for a single dream piece, or for someone to help with a whole house lighting scheme for your renovation, I couldn’t recommend Lumiere more highly and I feel sure you’ll be just as delighted with the experience as I have been. They make everything so effortless and have an expertise and breadth of knowledge that is unmatched!

Beau PropertyI first met Melissa at the beginning of her Lumiere journey and I was presented with a lady who’s passion for what she did shone as beautifully as the stunning lights that adorned her Lumiere shop. I have been lucky enough to photograph many events and shoots with Melissa over the years, and I always look forward to the exciting lighting installations that Melissa creates - and I get to photograph every year. Her experience and knowledge is second to none - as is her ability to match a light with a space. She makes everyone feel important because to Melissa they are - she lives and breathes light and it’s lovely to be around. I’m also a customer - and a Lumiere Rainbow Light sits proudly at the entrance to our home and attracts endless praise from all those it greets. I cannot recommend Melissa and her team highly enough. I have photographed many stunning homes that have been enhanced by Melissa lighting and I have never heard anything but praise and love. The Lumiere light will stay shining long and strong - so if you just need a simple but stunning lamp - or a whole home of lighting designed do make sure to give Melissa a call - you will never regret it.

Working with Melissa to specify according to the brief and unique project requirements played a pivotal role in transforming our client's space. The introduction of Ralph Lauren wall lights, the exquisite Kelly Wearstler Stada light, and a personalised neon quote not only complemented the artwork beautifully but added a touch of glamour and elevated the space to another level of sophistication. Thank you, Melissa and team, for making the lighting a source of true joy for our clients.

Atelier de LindeIt remains true that each and every time I look at each and every one of the lights that Melissa suggested for us it sparks happiness - and I wish we had known such a service existed years ago. After the Lumiere experience I would certainly make a lighting upgrade / redesign a priority in any new home - it is transformative - and I wish I had more rooms! The consultation process was easy and fun. Melissa was very easy to work with and she very quickly understood what we were after and how our home could be improved with the right lighting. The whole process was a joy and she was also available for support during the installation.
The hall was transformed by removing the two small chandeliers and replacing with one central, statement piece. I love the light so much I later bought two matching side lamps. The Cubist light over the stairs was not necessarily something I would have chosen in the shop, but Melissa was 100% right with this selection and every time we go up or down stairs we admire it - and wish we had changed it years ago instead of living with something we didn’t really like. The master bedroom light is simply beautiful to look at whether it is turned off or on. I love it. The landing lighting has considerably smartened up the area and the design of the lights is a perfect match for our house.
The process of discussing lighting ideas and concepts, through to choosing beautiful pieces and then delivery was not only straightforward but collaborative, creative and very enjoyable. We are absolutely thrilled with all of our installations. Melissa and her team at Lumiere were extremely knowledgeable; spending time and effort with us to ensure we achieved the outcome and desired effect from our choices.

I loved working with the lumière team on this new build project. We had great fun brainstorming ideas and creating a lighting scheme for each room whilst maintaining a cohesive design language throughout the house.
When I moved into my new house in Tunbridge Wells, I needed some lights to create both a beautiful ambience and to be stunning to look at. There was only one place in Tunbridge Wells that did really stand-out lighting and that was Lumiere.
Melissa and her team were exceptionally helpful and advised on some great lights, which has turned my house into a beautifully lit home.
After a redecoration and new furniture, I once again returned to Lumiere to get some light advice – and I wasn’t disappointed. After initially only thinking I needed three lights, I ended up with a quite a few more after some great advice on how I wanted to use the space and how I wanted it lit.
I got some extra special pieces such as art lights, desk lamps and casual lighting for seating areas that makes my home more welcoming and more comfortable to live in. Thank you Melissa and Carla for all your help.
I ordered my first beautiful light from Melissa when the shop was open in the High Street and I was immediately drawn to the glamour and the sparkle of her collection. I love the AERIN crystals and how they create the pattern on the ceiling. It is also the quality of the lights that is impressive. After ordering that light, I followed suit with some Kate Spades and various others, to the extent that almost my entire house is full of Lumiere’s beautiful lights and I love every single one of them!
Melissa and her team are always so friendly and so helpful, I can’t imagine going anywhere else for lighting.
