We're Loving Thundersley Home Essentials!
We love anything custom, and were immediately fans of Thundersley Home Essentials for their incredible range of home accessories. They first caught our eye because we're interested in anything Ralph Lauren Home is doing these days, and Thundersley Home Essentials recently made the outdoor cushions for Oceania Cruises' new Marina, the first luxury ship using the Ralph Lauren Home Collection.

Their midtown Manhattan showroom is going to be a bit far for the Hamptons customer, so we decided to bring a little Thundersley sparkle to Southampton - just a little something extra to enjoy while you are browsing our lighting collections. We love the idea of being able to customize a coffee table with a vintage Pucci fabric as they feature, but we're beyond excited to see how YOU will customize your Belgravia Coffee Table!
The sky is the limit when it comes to accessorizing the home, from glamorous black. . .
. . .to feminine florals. . .
. . .to the height of couture featuring fabric designed by Gianni Versace (his last collection).
Here's a peak at their catalog:
Best of all, we think our lighting will complement Thundersley's sparkle! Contact President of Sales William Kreitsek Jr. for additional information. . . and keep stopping by - we'll have new products to tempt and excite your palate and your home all summer long.
Guess Who We're Lighting Up
Guess is opening a two-level, 13,000 square feet wonderland on Fifth Avenue - the brand's largest US store - and Suffolk Designer Lighting is excited to be lighting up the space with some of the most dramatic lighting we have supplied to date. . .
We're going to let Guess unveil the new space and let you see the gorgeous, over the top fixtures for yourself. Hint? WWD reported after an interview with Guess chairman Paul Marciano that they're going for glitzy chrome and mirrors - 70's disco glam! A little bit different from our usual client, but with access to over 400 manufacturers, we were delighted to showcase our range.
Bright Lights Big City!

Meet Daniel Bruno
We are proud to introduce our valued team member, Daniel Bruno, who has been in the lighting industry for thirty-two years. Daniel specializes in high-end, electrical contracts and works with your team of architects and designers to draw up plans for your dream home.
"My focus is on large, high-end, custom homes," Daniel shares. "I work with my clients' crew on plans for architectural lighting, concealed lighting. . . whatever they can visualize, I can provide the materials and the know-how."
Like Daniel, we at Suffolk Designer Lighting value the privacy of our clients and will not disclose residences, but Daniel's attention to detail and keen eye have not gone unnoticed; his residential projects have graced the covers of Architectural Digest and been featured in some of the top, interior decor magazines. Sparkling Pointe Vineyard, located in the North Fork, is emblematic of the beautiful work Daniel has also done for commercial clients:
Like Amanda, Daniel can be reached at our showroom in Southampton - stop in and say hi if you are in the neighborhood, or give us a call at (631) 283-4800. . . as the weather gets cooler, there is nothing more heartwarming than sitting by the fire and drawing up plans for that dream home you have always wanted.
Daniel is ready when you are to light it up like a Christmas tree!
Meet Amanda Guglielmi
The Kreitsek Family continues to run Suffolk Designer Lighting, but we could not survive without our loyal, knowledgeable (and spunky!) team. We have worked with them for years - and many of our loyal clients know them well, too - but we're excited to start introducing them here to anyone who has not yet had the pleasure of being assisted by the best team in Southampton. Today we start with Amanda Guglielmi. . .

Amanda may wear heels instead of a hard hat (although she's been known to sport the latter, and quite well!) and doesn't pull any punches: "Whatever you need, I can do. I have been in the lighting business for twenty-five years."
Amanda is sympathetic to clients who are building homes from scratch, and shares, "We see clients frustrated, exhausted, tapped out. There's a lot that goes into a custom home. . .I can walk in there and work with their team just to GC their punch list. . .do a walk through with their AV guy and talk him through how to put a dimmer on all the switches. I've been on projects with thirty men working under me. If they wonder what a woman knows about lighting, I am more than happy to tell them where to put the junction box."
We can't think of anyone - male or female - who will argue with a woman who lists Bumblee Manor, Shelter Island on her list of credentials. Which sections of it did she light up?
"All of it," Amanda responds calmly. "There is a difference between a salesperson and a designer. If you want a salesperson, you go to J.C. Penny."
You get it. She's amazing.
We love Amanda because she's brisk, efficient, incredibly capable, and perhaps the only person you want telling your crew where to put. . . the junction box. Amanda softens, though, as she mentions her daughter, Victoria, age 8: "Her teacher told me that Victoria says I'm the smartest, most powerful woman on the planet." Amanda laughs, but we think the little girl might be on to something. . .
Victoria, the Kreitsek family and the team at Suffolk Designer Lighting may have to politely concur. Eight-year olds can be bright lights, indeed, and your Mom just might be exactly how you describe her to be. . .
Come say hi if you're in the neighborhood - whether you're in the market for a lamp, or you're looking for that one, magical person who will work with your crew and help the custom house of your dreams finally take shape, Suffolk Designer Lighting is your one-stop shop for all your lighting needs.
