Lighting Design
Lighting has a big role in any overall design. It needs to be safe, first and foremost, but it also needs to be functional and aesthetically pleasing. Lighting is a core component of how people interact with a space, inspiring and engaging its users.
That’s why, at Dialectic, we treat commercial lighting as a critical component woven into the overall design. Too often, it’s viewed as a separate system, resulting in a disjointed experience for users. We focus on creating designs that feel natural for the space, regardless of the type of facility – or its size.
Whether we’re working on a sports venue or a restaurant lighting design, we engineer lighting systems that give clients optimal control, energy-efficient options and cost-effective solutions. From a full-lighting scheme to an emergency exit, every system needs to work precisely – and safely. At Dialectic, we take pride in the innovative commercial lighting designs we’ve created for clients.

Success Story: The Capital Grille
JKRP Architects called on Dialectic to solve a plethora of unique challenges as The Capital Grille moved to a new location in Kansas City’s Country Club Plaza district. The 100-year old building previously housed a retail location, requiring significant renovations. The new design featured two kitchens on different levels of the building, bringing another level of complexity to the project. Consistent communication led to proactive planning and quick resolutions to deliver a world-class customer experience.
