About Us
Established in 2020 during the height of the pandemic in an effort to bring brightness and spirit back into homes and businesses.
Michael L. Ranilla
Founder and Designer
My Father would take me on trips all around the neighborhoods and to tag sales and he would find things that looked like junk to me and he would say, “Can you believe someone is throwing this out...we can fix this!” I didn‘t know it at the time, but he instilled in me a love for the old, a love for history, and a love for the story behind each item he salvaged. My father would say, “Let‘s go for a ride!” And I knew it would be an adventure into the world of reclaim and restore.
As a lifelong lover of all things mechanical and illuminated, I have worked in the trade industry for over 30 years. My passion is combining the old with the new to create one–of–a–kind lights. I also restore and upgrade old radio’s to have Bluetooth capability while maintaining their old aesthetic.
My specialty is mood. I am a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with a love for feng shui and how lighting and room décor affect mood. I add my perspective to every creation to ensure ambiance and sentiment are incorporated. This assists you with picking a piece from our collection that will create tone and character within your space; for your home is a reflection of your mood and your spirit.

Chandeliers
Hanging suspended in the middle of a room, a chandelier can add energy to any space.
"Where the mind is without fear, every thought brightens like a chandelier.”
“We are all broken, that's how the light gets in."
Pendants
Sometimes called a drop or suspender, these lone fixtures can be on their own or in a group to create any ambiance.
"In order for the light to shine so brightly, the darkness must be present."
“In the right light, at the right time, everything is extraordinary."
Wall Scones
Often thought of as accent lighting, our sconces hang on the wall like a work of art.
"travel light, live light, spread light, be the light."
"Do not go gentle into that good night but rage, rage against the dying of the light."
Custom Work
Do you have a piece you want transformed into a light? An old radio you want converted to Bluetooth? Call or email with your vision and I can create it.
