Carefree Kitchens & Lighting

We asked, you voted, and we investigated.

During our time at Lightovation last week, we toured the showrooms of 32 lighting manufacturers!

While we were busy filling our camera rolls with stunning fixtures, we also kept our eyes peeled for the lighting trends of 2026 we asked you to predict before the show.

Let’s see how your predictions stacked up against what we discovered in Dallas!

Happy Canada day! We hope you have a fun and safe time celebrating our beautiful country!

We will be closed today, July 1st, and will reopen tomorrow, July 2nd, at 8am.

In preparation for our trip to Lightovation, let's take a look at some of the lighting trends we've been seeing in 2026.

From softer shapes to statement glass and warm-toned finishes, it feels like the design world is gradually moving away from the modern trends of the last decade.

We're seeing a growing desire for spaces that feel comfortable, welcoming, and lived in—and lighting is playing a big role in that shift.

What trends do you think we'll see most in Dallas?

With over 1 MILLION square feet of showroom space, Lightovation gives industry professionals the opportunity to explore lighting from manufacturers around the world.

Why does our visit to Lightovation matter to our customers?

Because seeing products in person allows us to evaluate finishes, quality, scale, and functionality in ways that a catalogue or website simply can’t. It also gives us the opportunity to speak directly with our manufacturer representatives, helping us bring more product knowledge back to our showroom.

From June 24th - 26th we’ll be discovering new product releases, meeting with manufacturers, and getting a first hand look at the latest innovations in residential lighting design!

Follow along as we share our favourite discoveries from Dallas!

Really loving how this vanity turned out. Thin shaker fronts and long pulls are a great combo!

We can help with most of these and our friends over at can help with the rest!
