An established and widely acclaimed author on the subject of residential lighting, Randall Whitehead has written and published seven different books. His philosophy in practicing and writing about lighting design is to "humanize light" - that is, to focus on lighting people first, and objects and spaces second. This makes the subject immediately appealing, even to readers unfamiliar with lighting, because it clearly articulates how lighting makes environments feel more friendly and lets people discover and apply basic lighting principles on their own - it's not only O.K. to "try this at home" with Randall's approach, it's highly recommended. Randall's books are always in demand, and regularly elicit enthusiastic reviews from readers.
