Efficient nighttime lighting

• building code requires use of high efficacy lights in some areas, dimmers in others
• use efficient LED light sources in family room (permlight LED light)
• use efficient LED lighting for exterior lighting (spots, accent lights) 

Architecture changes for better daytime lighting

• Goal: Eliminate dark areas in the house so that typically no lights need to be on during the day
  
• Added two doorways (some doorways were framed but hidden in walls!)
• Improved existing house skylight by adding light tunnel,
• Added two small skylights to family room to improve daytime lighting,
• Removed a wall in kitchen breakfast nook wall that blocked light.
