About Myself

DAVID LAURENCE FLYNN

For the last 20 years, I’ve been creating lighting fixtures for all manner of homes and public places. My approach is to combine art and functionality. Whether it’s restoration lighting chandelier design, lighting fixture repair or custom lighting fabrication I’m often inspired by the shapes and textures I observe in nature. With my creative lighting designs, I hope you can see the natural world’s influence on the lighting I create for you.

CEILING FIXTURES

Custom lighting elevates the atmosphere in any space and is a way of bringing your personal style into any room. At David Laurence Flynn the most popular examples of handmade custom lighting are ceiling lights. They can be large or small and are capable of conveying the style you want, be it contemporary, rustic, organic or classic. Artisan lighting handmade items uplift and bring style to any room.
I will work with you through the creative process to design and then fabricate something very artistic that is also functional. You will be able to choose the primary material such as wood, metal or glass and have it be honed precisely to the size and shape you want.

DRIFTWOOD SCONCES

I have always been drawn to the beach. Walks to meditate and calm the mind. In an age where oceans are filled with plastic, driftwood is a reminder of the benefits of natural decay in the ecosystem. They are also a reminder of how nature can gently age our surroundings. Searching and harvesting the wood is a process in itself. Sometimes after a storm is the best time to find these wonderful traveling trees. I might sit with a piece of driftwood for a month before I decide to create a light. Once a candle is placed in a desirable location on the wood the piece takes on a second life.

RESTORATION / REPAIR / RETROFITTING

If you have a lighting fixture you love or is a family heirloom, it can be brought back to its former glory. I lovingly and carefully repair and rehabilitate all types of lighting fixtures, including but not limited to, chandeliers, pendant lights, floor or table lamps, and wall sconces.
My creativity and passion for lighting allow me to see possibilities for beautiful fixtures from the simplest repair to the most elaborate ones. I will restore/repair your fixture and return it to your installation ready.
Bring in your favorite object and we will convert it into the light. The term retrofit has a connotation of moving backward. We like to think we are moving forward with you. Taking an object that has great meaning and symbolism and synthesizing it with light.
Please feel free to make an appointment for having a free no-obligation consultation in my studio. There is a charge for an in-home consultation.

HOW WE WORK

Thank you for your interest in my work.  I am a custom lighting manufacturer. I derive great joy from the creative process and sharing what I create with you. Each project is individually created for your design needs and aesthetics. I can create lighting fixtures suitable for home, office or public space settings.  Projects generally consists of four phases:

  • Initial meeting and discussion.
  • Project proposal and budget.
  • Design and architectural drawings for review, fabrication and delivery.

This is perhaps the most important phase of the project.  This is where I meet with you for an initial discussion of your needs and aesthetics. This initial consultation is free. This can take place in my studio and your architect and/or interior designer is welcome to attend. If you cannot physically meet, then Skype is also an option. This allows me to understand your lighting needs and begin the creative process of achieving the results you are looking for.  Inquires and visits are always welcome even if you are not just quite ready to create a lighting fixture. On location visits will be charged time and travel costs.


If you feel comfortable with this part of the conversation, we can go to the next step.

Based on our initial discussion, I will present three concepts for review. Materials, colors, size and design will be discussed and modified with your input and that of your architect and or/interior designer.

If you like one or more of these concepts, I will proceed to make drawings.  There is a charge for this phase of the work payable upon delivery of drawings.

The drawings along with a proposed budget will be presented for approval.  Once the drawings are agreed upon a 65 % deposit will be needed to start the project. As I work on your project, photos will be taken of the progress. In-studio visits are also welcomed.

When the project is completed, the lighting fixtures will be ready and available for pick up.

Other arrangements for delivery can also be made such as shipping or local delivery. At this time payment for the balance will be due.

I hope you will be delighted with the result and will be inspired to commission another
