Illuminating Design in Southern California

“There’s a reason why we have worked with CLS for more than twenty years: we have received the support we require from the Best-in-class lighting representatives for jobs both large and small. The variety of lighting products they represent fulfills virtually any lighting niche we need. Their people know lighting, and provide years of knowledge and experience to back us up. Thanks, CLS, for your continued partnership in making our work successful.”

“The aim of architectural lighting is to use artificial light to emphasize the important features of the building and its urban setting, support its historic, artistic and social value and provide for the intrinsic needs of comfort and productivity. In this rapidly changing market, the CLS sales team is uniquely positioned to provide the expertise to aid in this effort. It has been my honor to work with CLS for over 30 years and I have watched them evolve into one of the most proficient and dedicated teams in the industry.”

— Robert Kruger, Sistemalux/iGuzzini

Successful projects rely on commitments from our entire team. CLS commits resources, intelligence and passion for lighting to our projects, and have helped AC Martin projects be successful for decades. Their knowledge of the market and technologies is deep, and we have come to rely on them in a similar fashion to how we rely on our engineers. They are never without multiple solutions to any given lighting challenge, can work to any budget or design criteria, and they provide this expertise throughout the life of the project.

— Paul Coleman, Principal and COO, AC Martin
